The Bathroom is still not done..Many problems..Len and the contractor ran into termites in the studs and ceiling studs so everyone had to come out and all new ones put in..which put us a week behind..I did want to show you the Chandy I got to go above vessel sink..it's sitting on my living room floor just waiting..
This is the french crown chandy I got this year from France and it will hang by the new shower...
And here is what the new shower looks as of today..Still need the faucets put in and the grab bar..I love the arch that Len made above it and the marble tile is so pretty..
we still have baseboards and crown molding to go in and the tin ceiling...
Tomorrow we hope to get the toilet in and I got a killer cherry vanity with a vessel sink and a faucet that looks like an old hand pump..as you can see this is a very small room..it's our bathroom off of our kitchen that company use...I'm so sick of all this sheet rock mess we have had here ha ha!! I have not seen my kitchen floor in a month as Len has it covered with brown paper...We hope to be done within the week on this project..Told Len last night the only thing I want to hear is "Gloria get your soap and towel" as I type this grout is still drying on the floor..
How ever I do have help with the clean up ha ha!!
And what's so great about the hired help is he'll work for food !!
even my stove edge becomes a food tray for him..
Cleaning out my dish towel drawer for his Gigi ha ha!!
Oh now before I forget again..The winner of the 135 piece PINK tool set is Debbie at " Love The Decor".
I want to thank all of you that came by to enter and make my third anniversary so special for me..I also know after thinking long and hard about this wonderful world of blogging..That I can no longer keep it up and am going to take the rest of the year off to try and mend my body..I also found out 3 weeks ago I have a tumor between my skull and brain which is causing pressure on my head and making me dizzy..in fact that's why I went to the Doctor back in August and he had me take a brain scan and MRI and then send me to the heart doctor and you all know how that came out...I told Len no Doctor is getting near me again with a sharp object..unless it's a diamond lapel pin ha ha!! and even then it better be a 10 carat one..
I will miss all of you..You all have become such a special part of my life..Thank you, May you have a Blessed CHRISTmas..
Until next time from my mountain to yours,
Hugs and Love Gloria

Ohhh...your bath is going to be sooo elegant, Sis!!! I'm just tickled pink for you!
Hehe...of course I had to giggle when I seen little Meester! or...should I call him Fonz Jr.? That black leather jacket is totally rockin'!!! Well honey, just wanted to come by and see what you've been up to and how you are doing! Please be careful and don't overdo it! I'll talk with ya later, Sis!

Oh, Gl♥ria, why does it seem that when it rains it pours... I'm sorry to hear of the other health issue. I will say a prayer for you that you are healed and 2012 will only be filled with miraculous good health. I am glad you have little Landen to keep you busy and loved though! He's adorable. And soon, when it's all done, you will be so happy to go to the bathroom now! LOL! Everything will look gorgeous when it is installed in your newly remodeled bathroom. You will just want to sit in there and stare at the beauty. ;) Len will be yelling in to you: "Did you fall in? What are you doing in there???!!"
Enjoy it in good health, as my mother would say. Again, I will say a prayer for you -- keep the faith and have a wonderful holiday with your family. God bless you and see you next year.
Best,
Gloria xxoo

Hi Gloria, I will say a prayer for you my friend and send good thoughts your way! I emailed you a couple weeks ago -I hope that you got it- but if you didn't- I just wanted you to know that I have been thinking of you. I hope you will stay in touch during your break from blogging. Do you remember that little victorian chair I shared on my blog & that you knew what it was back over a year ago? Well, anyway, I was thinking about it and was wondering if you would like it? We will have to figure out getting together one of these days!! Have a wonderful Christmas Gloria and get better soon! Hugs, Courtney
You just take care of yourself friend- Christmas isn't just about decorating-

O, dear sister friend, I am so sorry to hear you won't be blogging for awhile...but your health is so much more important and you need the break.

You know you will get some sort of tree or decor up before christmas...thats just you....so get busy and decorate something for me to look at...lol...you know it will make you feel better....take care sis...I'll be back..phyllis
Oh Gloria, your bathroom is going to be absolutely stunning. I am so glad you are up and about a little bit, this has been such a scary thing. Take all the time you need to rest and get totally well. I know you always push pretty hard, so this is the time to do nothing. Landon is just a doll and I know he is the best medicine for you. Just enjoy him and have a very Blessed Christmas. You will continue to be in my prayers. Hugs, Marty
Hi darling, just popping in to give you some cyber hugs... hugs ~lynne~
Hi Gloria! Oh, how nice to hear from you and I hope you're feeling better and getting some rest, loving on little Landon James! Miss you, but I want you to take it easy and get back to feeling like yourself! I'm hoping your work on your bathroom is finished and when you feel better you'll show us.
Hugs and kisses coming your way,
Shelia ;)

What would we do without our tiny Hellers?
Oops, that durn autocorrect on iPad! I meant helpers
I am going to miss you, Gloria, but do take care of yourself first. Hope the tumor is nothing. Landon has grown so much and is such a cutie. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas....Christine
it looks great so far mom!!! I know how you are looking forward to that being finished...but that little helper is doing a great job distracting you from things!!! He sure is a cute one!!!
love you...rest up. will call you in a few more days and check in on you.
today I am in bed sick...so I thought I'd read a few blogs to catch up with a couple of favorites!
xoxoxoxo
Dearest Gloria, I do hope and pray that you are recuperating and getting your strength back. Continued prayers for you. That huge shower is just fabulous, and those chandeliers are gorgeous! I can't wait to see pictures of the finished room. You have the cutest little helper ever. Love that picture of him with the broom. Looks like he has a blast at his Gigi's house. Do take care of yourself, sweet Gloria. Love ya, laurie
Just coming back by to say I hope you have a wonderful Christmas...hope you are feeling stronger.
I think of you so often....

Blessings to you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Merry Christmas!
Hi Sis...
Just stopping by to say hello and see how you are doing, Sweetie! I hope that my note is finding you feeling better and better!
How is everything going and what have you been up to, dear friend? I'm wondering if you got your bath finished? What a great Christmas present! Hehe! I finally got all my decorating done...yay! Russell surprised me and said he would take me to Texas for Christmas. I'm soooo very excited! It will be the first time in a very long while that all three of my girls and all of my grands will be together for Christmas! I'm just beside myself with anticipation! Hehe! Sooo...now I am having to plan and buy Christmas for everyone. Since they all live so far away, we usually just send gift cards...but since we will be there...well, you know how that goes! Do you have any special plans for Christmas? Are you girls coming home? Well dearest friend, just wanted you to know that I am thinking about you and sending you all my love! I hope that you and Lenny have a wonderfully sweet and blessed Christmas! I love you, Darlin'!!!
Love ya,
Chari
Hi dear Gloria! thanks for popping in to see me. You know what would make my kitchen pop? Your blue sink! I love your blue sink. I hope your doing better each day and letting your family take care of you! ;)
Love you,
Shelia ;)
