Is this a joke or what?

Tonights scenario....

My two girls decided this afternoon  they want to sleep over at grandma and granddads place.

So no kids - check.

Supper already cooked and house tidy - check.

Now just for me to crack open a bottle of red and sit back and watch anything but disney junior - check.

Phone rings.
Its Alex. I freeze.

There's a fire in the tunnel. Everyone is out and no one is hurt. Firemen are inside. Won't be home early. No let me rephrase that....' I'll be back late.'

Crap. What am I to do all alone with me wee self?

Just my luck!

Kitchen designs

The kitchen design file is bulging at the seams but making this decision is not an easy one.

 Light cupboard/black granite?

 Dark cupboards/light granite?

 I've always wanted white/cream cupboards and the black matte zimbabwe granite. Pictures from many moons ago  were clipped and placed in a file for that 'some day' all show the same kind of style or desired feel.
 Now the time is here. Time to bite the bullet.
 Its decision time and anyone who knows me, knows that for the life of me I can't decide.

 I know what I don't want and I'll have no shame in letting everyone know. But when it come to saying  'I'll take that'  leaves me feeling dizzy, sweaty and in a foul mood.

 During our summer vacation we visited 3 kitchen cupboard manufacturers.
 Firstly we weren't supposed to be deciding on this already but as we found out we'll be moving back to France next year July, we figured we may as well get it done.

 The plan was..... light coloured cupboards/black granite. But during the last visit we spied the most beautiful light grey granite and it threw us both into a dizzy fit.
 So the search was on for a dark cupboard to set off this beautiful counter top.

 Found. Done and dusted. Deposit down and our plan is to go back in December while they fit the kitchen. Now as it is me and as usual i  always ask, what if?? Alex doesn't want to hear a word of it. He sees it coming and I think this whole building the house has pushed him over the edge.
 I just don't want to regret it, I mean heck, I can't just go out and buy another kitchen? Can I?

 So what would you do white with black or dark gray with light tops?


Above is a photo of the girls in the part of the kitchen where the cupboards will be and an island in the middle.

Dreams and their meanings.

Do you believe that our dreams have a significant meaning?

Reflections of our thoughts and feelings from the day before.

What did you dream about last night??
