i need to finish.......

welllllllll...............as you well know by now......i have had project after project for weeks now.......then.....i unexpectedly found a twin Jenny Lind bed $30 to put in the "grands" room......well......once again, one thing led to another & i was redoing the bedroom...................add to that, the idea that i had Saturday to move the kitchen table to the "great room" and trade the table in there for the kitchen....then....then...then.........well you know how this story is going.........still at it , one thing to another thing......
but for now........this is a morning sunlight picture of the new buttery area.......my favorite.....morning sunlight...and .......the buttery.......it has been so much fun......................................

i'm a thinkin' on it.........

wellllllllllllllllllllllll..............................i have tackled about every room in the house in one way or another...................now.......i think....i may.....................move the flour & meal bin to the middle of the kitchen.......have always wanted to have a small table with lamp & chair where it is sitting.........then......i'm a thinking on making a hanging buttery above that spot.............................................someday when i am finished with everything......i will post pictures of how things look now.....................some rooms got a minor change.......some a little more..............................no paint yet......mr. prairie blue will not let me get on a ladder to do it (too much dizzy, inner ear stuff..ugh !).......so that has to wait......but i could be waiting for years......................so moved on to other things.....................i'm still a thinkin'  !
............................................................... i am blessed !

it's a lamp thing..................

i love old jug lamps..........................so glad, years ago, that i learned to make my own shades.......................styles have come and gone for so many.....................but mine remains....................give me solid bones of a good old jug..........and bit of linen..............and a few lampshade rings....................................off and running with yet another lamp..........mr. prairie blue likes to turn them off.....i like to turn them on..............................a constant battle..............
................................................ i am blessed !

where have i been.......

sometimes.......i ask myself..............................that very question.......where have i been?....................i haven't been on a lengthy trip...............nor have i been in the hospital......................nor have i been stuck in a foreign land.........................................but..........................i have still been busy redoing things in our home......................it has been so long since, i have jumped in with both feet, doing projects.............and..............i have enjoyed every day....every hour......................................so.......................i got a little sidetracked with my blog...............hoping to be back on schedule soon........................................................................
when i saw this quote................i knew i had to copy & share it...........................this is our main goal, for those of us that are believers....................i hope.....people can see it in me.......................
................................................i am blessed !
