The bedroom floor is 2/3 complete 
. My husband will have to drive to the nearest Home Depot (40 miles away) for more nails for the nail gun. Hopefully, all the wood is layed by Saturday and we can polyurethane next week 
.
. I've never been good at matching colors, interior design, etc. Our bedroom has knotty pine wainscoting, which was stained like a honey pine color. I wanted something lighter than that for the floor and so far the red oak looks pretty good. We just finished the last row of nailing the wood down....need to clean up all the dust, lightly sand the floor, clean that up and apply the first coat of polyurethane. 
Congratulations on your floor!
good luck with the floor
It's going well so far (except for running out of nails). 
Perfect weather for using the grill.
Can't wait! The corn looks really good.
enjoy!
How long together? Where are you going to eat? What are you wearing?
we're still just getting started, only three years. here's the menu for where we're going, i've been looking at it for two days and still have no idea what i'm going to get.
i've got a simple purple dress with a thin black patent leather belt, it's very demure and i love it because i don't need a fancy bra or underwear for it i've got heels to match the dress. we don't dress up often, so i'm really excited.
1/2 dozen oysters, heirloom tomatoes and fresh mozz and the smoked duck breast.
And, if I could possibly take another bite, I would get the cheese plate for dessert.
I am a huge fan of small plates. I like lots of different foods in small quantities.
Your outfit sounds stunning. Dressing up once in a while is a wonderful thing.
I understand from my mom (in Boulder) that the leaves are beautiful right now. Have a wonderful evening. My best wishes for your continuing love.
Take appropriate measures.
mountains block the crazy 
Of course, we will want the restaurant report today.
I like getting dressed up once in awhile.
thank you
They didn't have any fall squashes at the market yet, but I look forward to them. Fall/winter vegetables last a lot longer in storage.
Enjoy!
And it was on sale!
Had onion rings as a snack on a walk downtown last night. They were killer. Not the usual heavy, doughy stuff. These were crispy, light and flaky.
Anyway, had half a serving to add to something today. Topped my left over potato dish from yesterday - baked potato with grated cheese, ham, fresh salsa, sour cream - with the rings and ran all under a broiler real quick.
It's only 3 PM pacific and I'm already looking for a movie...pinto's marker for a good solo at home meal. But there's still time for some DU browsing, some paper work and another walk...
Pork roast that had the crispiest outside. Spinach, roasted vegetables, and mushrooms. We put a little sage pesto on the roast. Instead of knocking off two bottles of wine, we cut it back to one between the two of us.
