Well, we got our way! Mommy Bonnie is going to have Builder Mike put a 7" window ledge on the picture window at the cottage. We are soooo happy! Now we need to get Mommy to put a long cushion on it for us. I wonder what kinds of Alerts we will call? Bunny? Deer? Raccoon? Possum? We should see lots of animals around.

Mommy went to Wal*Mart today, got some gasoline, and picked up a sample of tile that Menards has on sale so she and Mommy Bonnie can decide if they like it. It is lighter than Mommy would like, but she could live with it if it would save money.

The mudding at the Farm is coming along and next week they will sand. Then they will be ready for the paint. Things are moving right along!

Today Mommy cleaned the sliding glass doors leading to the patio and the glass door on the gas fireplace. I can see smudges on the glass doors. Mommy isn't very good at cleaning glass. The new fireplace will not have glass on it.

Mommy wants to recommend a wine to anyone who loves rhubarb or rhubarb pie. She opened a bottle of French Lick Rhubarb Wine and loves it! She says it is like eating a good piece of rhubarb pie and she highly recommends the wine. As you know, Mommy is big into, and promotes Indiana wines whenever she can, and this wine is from the hometown of Larry Bird. Don't know who Larry Bird is? Then you are way too young to drink anyway!

Right now our villa smells so good! Mommy made her spaghetti sauce and put in some hot Italian sausage and lean ground beef. There is Oliver Soft Red in the sauce. I love spaghetti nights though I don't get anything but plain pasta.

Mommy finished the latest Stephanie Plum novel last night. It is a between-the-numbers book called Plum Spooky. Though it did make Mommy smile (and even laugh), Mommy can't give it a really rave review. Some of the same things keep happening to Stephanie Plum over and over again, and Mommy is tiring of it. On the other hand, she is getting ready to read her 11th Lisa Scottoline novel and isn't tired of her yet. Mommy also has some really good books on hold that she is excited about reading whenever they come in.

That's it for today!
