Meet
Max. He’s the newest addition to our crew. -Or I should say Mad Max cuz he's an
absolute adorable, but psycho kitty. Non stop running through the house, up the
stairs, around the corner, back down the stairs and yes....right up your
shoulder on to the top of your head. All in a split second before you have time
to duck. :) But he is a doll. He is a rescue from a rescue group in town, as
are all our little four legged family members. You can see the others here.
So
there’s not much going on here around the old homestead other than...
I decided to remove cabinet doors to give the appearance of open shelves...not sure about it yet..
I rearranged some
items in a couple of my rooms. Just a little tweaking...
.
I cleaned off all my family room shelving.
That's a job in itself, taking all the pictures down, dusting and re-arranging.
And I am still not happy with them. I mean, I love the shelves themselves but I
can't figure out why they just don't work for me as they are. The picture may make
it look a little crowded but in reality the room is really big. It’s 19 ft.
ceilings that slope down to about 10 ft.. And the room is about 23ft by 14ft.
So when you are actually standing in the room the shelves don’t look
overpowering like they do in the picture. And the wall is huge so the shelves
work...the arrangement doesn't. I have thought of buying all of the same
colored frames, all the same size, taking everything but the pictures off the
shelves, or adding more personal items to the shelves. hmmm...
(sorry for the poor lighting....)
(sorry for the poor lighting....)
I love this room but can't seem to get it "right". I love the curtains. I really need to figure out a what color rug I want to add. |
Guess I coulda cleaned up the stair way for the picture huh? |
I
also bought this amazing tool! Is it ridiculous that I am excited about a 14ft
branch cutter???? We have a zillion trees that drop blooms all over the pool. I think it’s so cool and I can't wait to use it. Haha....
Well
today it is pouring here in North Carolina so it is definitely not a pool day
or beach day. And I certainly don't get to use my new tool today. So lets see,
cleaning? DIY projects? Painting? Reading? -I just started reading my all time
favorite book "To Kill a Mockingbird" again, for about the fourth
time. I could read all day while the rain pours down. Hmmm....or maybe it's
just a Lego's sort of day. I see the littles that are here dragging out their
Batman Legos all over the place. And I think I may see the Batman distress
signal going up.....decision made. Remove Max from my head and go help rebuild
Gotham city.
Have a wonderful Friday!
