And you have a color-matched doggy too! Seriously, don’t you love how dogs love to show up in your photographs? I had three at one time, the last one passed to the Happy Hunting Ground in 2004 and I didn’t have the heart to get another doggy after that. These days I restrict myself to feeding families of squirrels and other assorted critters in the neighborhood. There seems to be a grapevine – go to Jan’s house, she gives out food! I know some of my neighbors are not too happy with me. But it’s not my fault if a squirrel takes a peanut and eats it next store, leaving the shell behind. How to you teach a squirrel he or she should dispose of the shell in MY yard, not next store? Anyway, I’ve only within the past day or two become acquainted with your blog, and I’m adding it to my favorites list for regular visits from now on because I really like what I’ve seen and I love your down to earth attitude and common sense approach to decorating. This is only the third post I’ve read here (thus far) and I love what I can see you’ve done to your living (front) room. And I don’t think a view of uncut grass and an unfinished deck are “bad” things (and I know you were just tongue in cheek saying it, but some people might think it has an “ick” factor anyway). That kind of stuff is just – life – happening, as it does to all of us. The fun, and the pains in the neck and back and other body parts (like one’s arse), come as much from the eventual triumph of creating a space that works for you and yours as the trials and tribulations of getting it all together, ever so slowly. Ah, nothing quite like that feeling “victory is mine.” And as we know, Victory is a goddess
