do something with them and sell the rest on Craigslist.\u00a0 He did it, but let&#8217;s just say he wasn&#8217;t a happy camper.\u00a0 Then I had to figure out what I would actually do with the letters, and it had to be fast.\u00a0 You see, they were stacked up in our designer garage, and it is not place for clutter, at least according to him.\u00a0\u00a0 I knew I could make the word <em>butt<\/em>, or <em>tub<\/em> or <em>love<\/em>, or <em>boo<\/em>, or <em>live<\/em>.\u00a0 That&#8217;s it.\u00a0 I could make the word <em>live<\/em>, and when I was tired of living, I could turn

the basement bathroom would be perfect.\u00a0 We added it when we did our whole-house remodel before we moved in, and it is a blank\/white\/boring canvas.\u00a0 So, I hung them on the wall, and it is still a blank\/white\/boring canvas, but it is ready to <em>LIVE<\/em>.\u00a0 Now, I need to decide what else to do, and I am TOTALLY open for suggestions.\u00a0 So, all of you out there in blogland
