Lovely choice, Val!!!

PSST: good thing you have a dog and not a cat. A cat would spend the rest of its days trying to get up there! :D

When I do a LOT of cleaning, which I intend to do gradually. Housekeeping is not my forte.

Lovely choice, Val!!!

Ah but who do you think that kitty was in my Christmas sig?

[Freedom]

ARGH, so SORRY, I completely forgot! :o See, I do rely on siggies sometimes for these things.

OK so let the jumping on the bed Olympic games begin! I'd be silly enough to hold the cat and let the front paws lightly bat a few times, just to get things going. :rolleyes:

Very nice Val! I always wanted a chandelier in the bathroom. Couldn't do it when we remodeled in Chicago so it was one of my "non-negoitables" when we moved here.

Isn't it fun? :) :) :)

[NoahsMommy]

Yay! Another chandelier fan!! I LOVE chandeliers....in bathrooms, bedrooms and most of all, CLOSETS!!! (<---has to be big enough to dress and walk in)

I LOVE it Val....its gorgeous and looks really nice in your room. You have excellent taste.

Hugs,
Kelly :)

Oh, Val - my very first job was at an Eva Gabor Wig Salon, where on some nights it was so slow - malls on Monday nights are typically empty - there would be quite literally nothing to do.

So one night, having called everyone who had an order in, having neatened everything that could be neatened, etc., I decided to clean the chandelier. As soon as I got a chair to stand on, it was obvious no one had done so in a looooooooong time. I probably used half a bottle of Windex, one squirt at a dangling crystal at a time, and told myself I would never own a chandelier of my own unless I was wealthy enough to pay someone else to clean it!

Your is lovely, so pretty. Has Doogie discovered it yet?

:p
The "seekrit" to not having to clean the chandelier is to never **check it** for dust!

That innocent "test swipe" you make with a finger will forever leve a :eek: CLEAN SPOT
on whatever you swiped - that CLEAN SPOT will haunt you even in the dark!

*IGNORE* it till the lights get so dim you need a flashlight to see at night.

That is a beautiful chandelier. And I agree - you have wonderful taste.
