After a really tough week... Tess getting really sick again... knowing it was time to let go... Getting the call from my favorite painter on Thursday morning 15 minutes before I was leaving for a meeting that he could get to my living room and dining room NOW, if I wanted. I wanted. What I didn't want was to have to decide on colors without time to really live with samples on the wall for a day or two. Sleepless nights. Two of 'em.
I thought it was going to be in January before he could get to me... Temperatures of 24 degrees stopped the exterior painting on the job they were doing... leaving me a shot to squeeze in... I took it. After one disastrous choice of Silver Sage, which ended up looking like Frankenstein on my ceiling, it is done. Ultimately I chose a color that flew in the face of every bit of advice I solicited. I like it. BIG change... but, it is time for that in my life... LOTS of work to do on making this new color/look complete... but, I love a good challenge... and, I think I've got one!
Today, I found these two mercury glass urns in a 75% off sale!!! I was sooooooooo excited to find them! They are PERFECT inspiration pieces for my new look... They are perfect inspiration pieces for me... Unexpected... Just Right... Almost a Gift... Love 'em!!
The Bungalow 's a changin'...
It was sure quiet coming home to no little greeter tonight... We miss you, Tess.

Those urns are fantastic! Looovvveee them!
I'm sorry the bungalo is so lonely. I can only imagine!
Beautiful. And as they say...change is GOOD! ;)
It is so wonderful to be greeted by unconditional love........it's gotta be tough! I don't even want to think about not having Trixie! Are you gonna get another pet?
Love 'em. Can't wait to see it all in person. Sorry it's so lonely. I know it will be sad coming home for Christmas with no Hoppy to greet us either. I don't look forward to that.
Hey Noni! Thanks so much for stopping by! I checked your blog out and it's just lovely! I love the one about your son hunting, I'm a HUGE hunter myself (profile pic is not just theatrics. That's my beloved over-and-under)
Keep stopping by, I'll do my best to entertain ya! (sorry for the cursing, I'm trying to "get better")
Very pretty. Can't wait to see what you do with them as your inspiration!
So glad you like the color. And thank you so very much for your prayers. Those urns are gorgeous. Thank you so much for your prayers yesterday, God bless you!
Hugs,

Wait. I just read about Tess. My heart just hurts for you. I'll say a prayer for you today.
Hugs,
