Nothing exciting to report - all I did today was paint.  It is slow going as I have to strip wallpaper too.  I strip for a while and then paint the areas where I have removed the paper - that way I don&#39;t have to do too much of the same thing all the time.  The bathroom is all painted and I moved onto the bedroom last week.  I think I am about 20% done.  Greg was off today for MLK day but it was just too &quot;wintery&quot; to go out and do anything, 5 degrees and snowing like crazy, so we stayed home all day.  He piddled around in his garage all day, with both heaters fired up.  He leaves Wed. morning for Chicago, so I will probably get a lot more painting done while he is away.  Sounds like there is a lot of cold weather going around here on the forum.  Speaking of cold, Ed, how is Roe feeling - hopefully she is kicking that cold by now.  Well, gonna&#39; go watch Deal or No Deal....<br /><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br />Cheryl:  Roe is doing much better.  I think by our departure Friday morning she will be 100%.  BTW we are going with about a dozen people to see UNLV play Colorado State in basketball on February 9th.  Just bought the tickets today.<br /><br />Carmen: Yep, I&#39;ll get off the ship as soon as they will let me and have my cell with me.  But, then how many 6&#39;3&quot; guys are going to be walking around with a white teddy bear that morning??  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":biggrin:" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> <br /><br />Steve: I got the luggage out of the garage today, that&#39;s a start I guess.<br /><br />I got the timer on the swimming pool setup to come on at night now to prevent ice while we are gone.<br /><br />Tomorrow I&#39;m taking the Siamese Cat in to get &quot;Soft Paws&quot; applied to his claws so we will have carpeting left when we return.  We have a lady coming by a couple times a day to feed and visit with the two cats, but I know he will have time to think up kinds of things to entertain himself. <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" /> <br /><br />Signing off for tonight,<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
