This planter I got from my parents when I was in the hospital after Chris was born in 1979. I think it pretty much reflects how they felt about us giving them their first grandchild! This is a voodoo doll I got when we were in Haiti on a cruise in 2009. It included the pins and instructions for Jeanettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04049092763428920061noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825120463786860540.post-37408039358241184452024-03-12T16:16:00.001-04:002024-03-13T09:46:58.394-04:00Display Case Part 1One of the (many) things we have to do to prepare for our next painting job is to empty out this display case so we can move it out of the way. It sits between the dining area and the family room. It's hard to get a good picture of it because it has a mirror in the back.

I took it when we cleaned all of her stuff out of my dad's house after she passed away. It still has pictures, credit cards, loyalty cards to a few stores, her drivers license that she just renewed a few months before she died, her social security card, papers with phone numbers on it, including the phone number of my first cell phone and a few casino players cards.

A guy proposed to his girlfriend while they were visiting her mother! He had his friend come to play the guitar for the residents as a way to get the mom down to the dining room. We all knew it was coming and everyone was in the dining room, pretending they were there to listen to the guitar player! Here's something interesting.

Since it's all one big room I want to be sure we get the right color of paint. The lighting in this picture is terrible and even though the wall looks grey, its actually a beige. These are the colors we most liked. We haven't decided for sure yet, but I think the third from the right is the one we are going with.
