The prodigal blogger returns!

I have returned!!  time to kill the fatted calf!
 So- here is our gross totally 80s brass "chandelier"  ick.  Not only is it brassy, but it is totally un-centered.  Why does that happen?  is it that hard to measure out what would be the center of the "dining room"?  ANYWAY, I am too cheap to buy a new fixture....but I did buy some spray paint! (do you like how half of the lights are burned out?? classy.)
 Soon- so very soon, we will have moulding up....so so soon.  Dave got a nail gun/air compressor for Christmas....what a great gift right?  I digress....
 eeewww so dusty.  Here is one of my skeletons....I HATE dusting.  It is one of my "pay" jobs.  The kids know that if they want money, there are always jobs that I will pay to have done.  Dusting is one of the many :)
 My VERY high tech spray guard.  I didn't want the hassle of taking it down just to have to put it back up again.


 TA-DA!  ooooooo so much better  AND it is now centered.
 hmmmmm couldn't decide which was the better pic--lights on or lights off.
 I know right?  you want to blow this picture up and put it on your wall :)
I recently saw a post on another blog about how to cover these little dandies....so that might be coming sooner than later.
