vacation day 8

Tha carpet guys came yesterday and installed the carpeting. They did a good job. It looks better than I thought ti would. I spent most of yesterday helping daughter move back to her old room. Seems moving into her big brothers room wasn't as grand as she thought it would be. She missed HER room. So we moved her brothers belongings back to his room, and visa versa.
This morning I baked some banana nut bread, cranberry muffins, and sugar cookies. My house smells good! The sugar cookies were sort of an after thought. I make them for the little girl up the street. She loves them....
Daughter has a mirror that came as a set with her dresser..........she didn't want to use it anymore. I thought it had potential if it was separated from the dresser. So that's what we did................ we took it out back this morning and painted it a bright yellow.................daughter usually sits on her bedroom floor when she does her hair..............so I thought we could sit the mirror on the floor propped against the wall for her to use when she's doing her hair.......it turned out cute......I'll try to get a picture.
I was checking out the paint job in the stairway hallway today. Daughter and her boyfriend painted it, and I hadn't really taken a good look until today. The first thing that caught my eye was what looked like a penny stuck to the wall, and painted over.............closer inspection revealed that indeed it was a penny stuck to the wall and painted. I asked daughter about it. She said she put it there for luck. My first thought was "dammit, Emm!" But then it made me smile cause that's my Em!
