Painting



We got some painting done today on the house. We got the family room painted and part of the kitchen.
Quite a full day, and I'm pretty tired right now.
I only helped paint one time before.
My husband has never painted before.
We got off to a rough start. Including somebody's foot getting into the paint pan.
But I think it looks pretty good. The family room really needed a paint job. The walls were dirty.
The living room is probably next. The bedrooms can wait. The color is called "Toasty Tan". I think it looks more like a yellow cream. I'm hoping to have everything ready by my party next week. One other thing I wanted to point out. The blue bandana on my head belonged to my Mom. It has some paint blotches on it that are "Sundance Yellow". That was the color Mom and Dad painted the farm house years ago. I loved wearing it.

Awards banquet


I can't believe it myself, but I have been with the Walt Disney World Co. for more than 20 years.
My hire date was back on Feb. 11th, but the awards banquet was on Monday night.
It was at the Contemporary Resort. We had a very elegant evening. It started out with a reception with
hors d'oeuvres We had a lobster tail and steak dinner. There was live music. Then desserts and dancing afterwards.

The best part was that the banquet was for people who have been with Disney for 20 years or more. So I got to spend part of my evening with Barbara and Marina. They have been with Disney for 30 years. Barbara retired this past summer.
It was cool that they had a special presentation for two gentlemen who have been with Disney for 40 years. There was actually a third, but he wasn't able to attend.
