The Day After Christmas

Christmas is over, but I'm still feeling the Christmas spirit.

Christmas movies are still playing on the TV (which makes me very happy!)

Today I've been busy tidying up, and continuing my work upstairs...

We are still in the process of revamping one of the upstairs bedrooms. 

This one belonged to our younger son who got married 4 years ago. 

We turned his room into a music, playroom for the grandchildren, 

and now it is also going to be my Origami Owl office. 

We bought a table, chair, cubicles, lamp, and picture from Ikea a few weeks ago

and the room is really shaping up

There was a vanity table on this wall before. 

It was my mother's but she wasn't using it, so we brought it over here for Hannah.

She loves playing dress up on that vanity table. 

Now the vanity table is on this wall where this cabinet use to be

It's a beautiful cabinet, but we really don't need it anymore. 

It use to house our bedroom tv among other things, 

but when we went to a flat screen TV a few years back

We mounted the TV to the wall and got a more modern cabinet to fit below the TV. 

This armoire was now just collecting STUFF

and neither Manny nor I are into collecting in that regard. 

We don't like clutter. 

So, when I'm completely done with the revamping, I'll post more pics. 

Besides tidying up and working on the upstairs room

we've also been getting ready to head out tomorrow to another Bus Rally. 

This one isn't too far away, and it's held each year between Christmas and New Years. 

We love going! Our first year there, right after we had gotten our bus

there were about 200 buses from all over the US.

It was so exciting to meet people from all over and see the different buses 

in all stages of development, so I'm looking forward to the next few days. 

I'll also be doing a Locket presentation. I'm excited about that too.

Besides these things, though, I'm also looking forward to some much needed rest. 

I seem to get more rest at this event than anywhere. 

I think it's because Manny seems to stay busy talking "bus" with the guys, 

and there aren't that many distractions at this place, besides the buses. 

So even though each day I'll visit with people, and see their buses and hear their stories,

and we'll go for golf-cart rides, and eat...

the rest of the time I hope to be chillin out, with Milli and some movies

and I'm bringing a LOT Of them, ha ha. 

Only down side is, I may not have internet to post on my blog.

So once again, my apologies if you don't hear from me for a few days.
I'll catch up as soon as I can.
