Have you ever noticed that when there is a headline about
the latest trends in home innovations that many are geared for ridiculously
higher priced larger homes for the one per-centers. I’m speaking double digit
thousands or greater square footage. Since the biggest one we had was just
short of four thousand square feet and that was plenty big for the four of us and all our company we used to get too!
Most regular Joes and Janes don’t have twenty by twenty
bathrooms to have multi-fixtures of vast sizing, enormous soaking tubs with
twenty jets, and walk through showers, and dual sinks of much depth, now that’s
the latest too, no more glass above bowls and all under the umbrella of…the
latest in home trends and definitely a must have!
Most kitchens are not wide enough for five lanes in a
bowling alley with room for the latest six or eight burner Viking
commercial grade stoves with griddles and grates for barbecues too with pot
fillers above in the imported Italian tile wall with a hood large enough to
cover a small city with the Carrera marble counter-tops surrounding it all or the
floor to ceiling wall recessed commercial grade freezers and refrigerators or
locations for two sinks one for bar use and one for decoration with faucets that have motion detectors so you
don’t have to worry about soiling them. And have I mentioned the lower more
convenient microwaves built into the perfect height island with, food warmer insets, with two dishwashers
one for tiny loads and one for larger family ones right next to your case of
wine specific cooled refrigerator for when you bring a bunch up from your wine cellar!
Never mind that most who have those fantastical baths and kitchens have help to
keep them clean and probably with those kitchens help to cook and clean that up
for you too!
I would, wouldn’t you? And since I don’t I won’t have any of
it!
That’s another thing, what’s with all those commercial grade
stainless appliances? We had a restaurant and we had to have stainless
everything due to it being a health department issue here and that’s what they
make/ made then… and the last thing I wanted in my home was for it to appear
like a kitchen in a restaurant too; too cold looking for me, sorry for all you
diehard stainless lovers! My own kitchen
is full of color, but on a white and blue background and I love it!
Whew that felt good to express my feelings… thanks.
Moving on…
Dangerous weather is on the move all throughout our United States
with deadly, life threatening tornadoes going through our heartland once again.
The season of heavy rain, horrendous tornadoes are rushing
through Oklahoma City as I write this, just the
other day they were in Texas,
causing six deaths there.
Over the weekend in Kansas
and Nebraska were hit;
all part of our tornado alley!
Minneapolis
Minnesota, as well as neighboring
states are on the watch out for tornadoes too tonight!
With all that has been happening in the news with Obama’s
problems with having to fire his idiot IRS director and with the unending Benghazi inquisition as
well as all the other items that his administration has had to take charge of;
I am at a loss without any clear-cut answers yet.
People always are quick to rush to judgment and appear to be
armchair quarterbacks with any politically sensitivity topics.
I prefer to wait and hear and read all the info from either side and then rush to judgement, my own.
Our hearts and prayers go out to those who were injured in
that head-on commuter train crash in Connecticut.
In other news… our number one son lives the next town over
from where that winning Powerball ticket was sold and we all do have a habit to buy our
tickets at Publix our local grocery stores, we did. He hasn’t called yet…
For us, we did not win, unless; are two matching numbers
worth anything? LOL!
On that note of a mysterious note, allow me to be the very
first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count
all your blessings and share all your overages with you know who and we will
too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!?
