foggy greycup

We were fogged in solid again today and it stayed for most of the day. It made for a good day to do inside things. Besides marketing and promo of the big sale there were a few home improvements made. We installed a super cute shadow box jewelry holder I scored from Shaina in last year's Chinese gift exchange. There may be a few holes in the wall behind it as it proved a bit of a challenge  to hang for my handy man.

so happy to display more of my favorite pieces, my Grandma W pocket watch, Grandma B necklace, some pretty glass from Italy, larimar bracelet from Dominican, a funky mineral stone pendant I bought online and more pretties

He started putting together the lighted angel we received last year. It required a trip to the box to get the instructions even and finally with my help we got it put together in under 3 hours, whew. And she is huge, as tall as me but not so steady. Luckily Sheldon had a 4' long 2X10 and I had some red paint on hand, I made her a sturdy base and just before grey cup started it was dry and assembled on. The fog did let up a bit in the afternoon but was back not long after.

this looked odd once I came around the corner so we unassembled her torso and reversed

 to get this, yes much better

Of course, it was football Sunday, one of Sheldon's favorite days so he got allot of it in including the grey cup but sadly Calgary lost in over time ;( I tagged all my new pieces going to the store tomorrow while he watched the game as well as cooked a great supper (which he fit in quickly with TV muted in kitchen).

check out the cat wrangler ;) this is a rare moment worthy of photo proof
