There is nothing more refreshing than to have new window panes installed as it makes the whole room look better. Some are just being cleaned and they will do for awhile, yet. We'll save money anywhere we can. Looks like someone sees a bird in our Maple outside the window.
My daffodils have been sitting up on top of the fridge since Easter. They are safe there, and because they are poisonous for cats, I don't have to worry about mine chewing on them.
It was time to cut them and place them in fresh water.
These tiny vases belonged to my mother. She loved flowers and she adored the colour peach. That explains why I also received a peach tablecloth, peach lamp shades, peach duvet and pillow covers and on and on.
These vases, though, are very special and are among the favorite things I have of my mothers. They are kept in a safe place with some of my china.
So, now the daffodils go up on top of the fridge so the cats won't eat them.
Here it is Friday again. I have a bit of cat-sitting over the weekend and will be working more on de-cluttering some closets and drawers. I'm really getting into this and I'm being ruthless about it. I feel happiest and most inspired when I am not faced with clutter. I don't have a lot of clothes but I do have some that I haven't worn for a long time. To be sure that I want to pass it on, I will try on the item and see if I still find it appealing and comfortable. Do I look like the side of a bus in it? Does the colour wash me out? Does it itch? If so, gone, gone, gone. With dishes, I just have to be strong and eliminate those that I can. This is no easy task for a dishaholic.
So, it's onwards and upwards. "She loves me...she loves me not."
"Goodness...you do love me, right?"
