Another Update & Exterior Colors

7/28/10

Wow, I'm a slacker.


I give the following excuses:
  • I have the world's most adorable baby and I spend all my free time admiring and playing with her.
  • We went on a 11 day tour of the Midwest this month.
  • It has been hot here. Really, oppressively hot. Too hot to do any housework.
  • Tuna is sick. We fear this might be the beginning of the end. She spent our Midwest Tour at the vet's being boarded, tested and monitored. She has some sort of lung infection. We find out next week if it is getting better or worse.
  • My sister Heather did not just have a sore back and legs. She had a massive, scary blood clot. Poor thing has had to spend the last month on the couch at my parent's house. Which isn't fun when you have 3 very active little boys to mind.
Good thing is we did get the 3rd countertop shipment. Funny how we couldn't wait to install the first shipment, but now that we are on our third shipment, we've let it languish on the back porch for the last 21 days. We will, however be installing it either tonight, tomorrow or Friday with the help of our nice contractor neighbor.


Also, I was asked what our exterior colors were by a commenter. I searched and guess I have never posted them before, so here goes.

All Sherwin Williams:
  • Upper: Emminent Bronze SW6412 (solid color stain)
  • Lower: Escapade Gold SW6403 (solid color stain)
  • Trim: Acestral Gold SW6407 (semi-gloss ext paint, I think)
  • Sashes: Black Bean SW6006 (semi-gloss ext paint, I think)


On the Mend

Just wanted to post a quick update:

  • Marc got his new iPhone 4. The screen resolution alone is amazing. :) I'm totally jealous now. he has named it Big Baby ala Toy Story 3.
  • Franca is feeling MUCH better.
  • Me too.
  • Marc is at 95%.
  • My nephew said his tooth didn't hurt being knocked out. He just *needed* a new Buzz Lightyear toy and he felt great.
  • Heather got a massage and feels better.
  • Missy does not have pneumonia, but some mystery illness but feels better.
  • Tuna (the cat) has a lung infection and some kidney issues. Marc is struggling to give her antibiotics twice a day, but she is sounding better. And no more passing out episodes.
  • Countertop re-replacement is slated for delivery tomorrow. We have been assured that it is level and finished and perfect. We will see. :)

We had a really great 4th of July weekend. Didn't do any work on the house, but it was great nonetheless. Hope everyone had a great time!

To infinity and beyond!
