*L* no Beach my hubby has a favorite driver. [I'm more about wanting a good race and who I don't want to win but let's not go there right now ok I'm still in mourning. *L*] We still have 1 wall to paint orange and by we I mean me. And curtains. I bought material a couple months ago thinking I can make a curtain. Then I realized I'd have to make 2 curtains that match since we moved the desk. 2 curtains the same length. That has me worried. And no curtains don't worry me as the windows are under the deck and I doubt anybody is going to crawl under the deck to look in at us IF they could fit. Haven't really had too much problems with the cats. Every now and then we'll notice something moved but they have been really good. Jack the puppy on the other hand when he's downstairs we have to get after him, but it's getting less and less.

Are you talking about curtains for the window over the tree? If so, have you thought about buying Tony Stewart pillow cases (or sheets) and cutting/lining those and using those for the curtains? That would make it easier to ensure the lengths are the same. I have taken a Martha Stewart cloth shower curtain, cut it in half, hemmed the bottom to the length I needed, and use it as curtains in my laundry room.

No never thought about it because I haven't seen any. Might check it out, and make a big throw pillow or something for the critters to lay on out of the material we have now. Thanks for the idea!

Wow what a SMOKIN' room & tree Serate!! My family thinks I'm a bit nuts with my new obsession! LOL My DH watches races for years and years, but never goes over-board. I get into it and I'm obsessed. heh heh Hmmmm... that #20 huge coffee mug I bought would look right in place in that room! Want me to see if there's still one left? The shipping would probably cost more than the mug or at least as much!

Mighty nice of you to offer but me thinks hubby already has the huge #20 mug. Go check your folder and find out who just got season passes to Kansas Speedway for next year! You'll NEVER guess!!!! *L*

We forgot about it and turned it on right as Kelly Clarkson was singing, then it was time for Tony so perfect timing. During the commercials after Tony the electricity went out. Perfect timing again? *L*

Thanks Imbewitched. There are really way too many ornaments on the tree, plus we have some left over. But with the puppy this year we had to get a small tree so this is what we got. Our Christmas is over and hubby is in no hurry to take it down.

ME EITHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tony was the best!!! I loved when he said Zippy had to fill the "wife role" in his video. Too funny!! He had some kind of Elvis or maybe it was a Soprano look going on! LOL And yeah....... Jeffy loves his family.... he's allowed to get choked up about them.

Bud Shootout is February 9...usually they have a ticker going by now but they seem to be ignoring those of us who are already missing our Sunday afternoon entertainment. Have you heard about the charity series they are putting together that will be the old school drivers? Looks interesting. Guys like Dave Marcis, Geoff Bodine...should be fun to watch those guys beating and banging on the track.

Roxip - I found a place to get a count-down clock, but I don't know the exact time or date to put in to make one. I saw this guy had one on his My Space page so I followed the link. Yep, I've heard about the charity series. One of the racing sites I visit had an article about it.

Sportsfan - Have you seen his new uniform? I wish they had put more green in it than white and not had that quilted look. I'd like to see the sleek look in his firesuit. Maybe they'll work on it as time goes on. It just seemed too "frumpy" for him. LOL

I've got the NASCAR blues. Even getting the credit card bill with our Kansas tickets on it isn't helping any.
