Always good to see your posts, Todd. It's a relief that the decor issue has only happened once to you.
Kirby it just gets stranger. "Rodeo themed" Forgive me but having a room theme being animals "broken" and "roped" for entertainment and the posters have to match that? The only "theme" I have is the room where my unframed, undealt with stuff is (carefully) stored. My husband calls it the black room. I call it the tomb of Tutankhamun before Howard Carter arrived.
