Furniture shopping

Monday, August 17th, 2009

Update: I went to B0st0n Interi0rs website yesterday to show someone our new tables. They are no longer referring to the series as “Rustic Oak tables” but instead, “Natural Oak tables”. Heehee. Li’l ol’ me got B0st0n Interi0rs to change their website! So, do I get some sort of a [...]

Bees

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

Okay, its been 1-1/2 weeks and I think I finally have the strength in me to write about what happened to us a week ago this past Sunday.
When we moved into our new house, we were aware that there were bees above the front door and we were aware that we needed to deal with [...]

Basket dude

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

Frosty absolutely loves baskets. Always has. We used to have this basket on the bay window at our last house and he loved to curl up in it and sleep:

When we moved, I’d just placed that basket on the floor and put some toys in it. With some recent shuffling of furniture [...]

Birds

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

I mentioned earlier that I decided to populate our yard with bird houses and bird feeders this year. I am having sooooo much fun with this!
Back in the fall, I found a Tomorrow’s Treasures Birdhouse at a local gift shop. These birdhouses are ridiculously expensive but I absolutely fell it love with it! [...]

First, the recipient has to tell 10 true things about themselves in their blog that no one else knows (NO ONE was too [...]

My spring project

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

When we first moved to our new house, I got an idea for a “gardening table” from a magazine. I had been searching high and low for the “table” part. Since it would be outdoors, I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on it and had been visiting local yard sales [...]

Crazy, or what?!?!?!

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

Last week we had four yards of much delivered. We moved it from the driveway to its rightful areas in the yard. In a wheel barrel. In one day.
I had aches in muscles that I did not even know I had. And I’ve been going to the gym for [...]

Pretty!

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

I was peeking through my photos and ran across some I’d taken somewhere along the line, when it actually wasn’t raining around here. From the dates on them, that would have been this spring, even though it feels to me like it has been raining since the time it stopped snowing.
I started at one [...]

Whirlwind

Friday, June 19th, 2009

Yesterday was an absolute whirlwind of a day!
My dear mother-in-law is finally retiring after 34 years of service to the phone company. She is 78 years old and has commuted to the city every day and has finally accepted the fact (with very mixed emotions) that it is time. Her company invited her [...]

Get down!

This cat can get on top of anything!

He doesn’t know enough to keep his paws on the floor:
