Feeling a Little Frazzled

I feel the way this cat looks. Did I bite off more than I could chew when I decided to wash all of my windows in one week? Next season I'm going to do a room a week instead of the whole house in one week.

Fun Friday

I hope you are looking forward to having some fun over the upcoming Columbus Day Weekend. This little panda seems to be enjoying his ride on the rocking horse, doesn't he?

What will I be doing? Don't ask. My goal is to be finished washing all my windows by Saturday afternoon. This is taking much longer than usual for some reason. I'm doing an extra-thorough job and I'm feeling good about doing them in such nice weather. I cleaned the screens too.

The long holiday weekend is supposed to be spectacular as far as the weather is concerned in the Northeast. Enjoy the scenery. See you later.

Big Chickens Guarding My Cottage


I don't think I've ever featured the two huge cast iron chickens that sit on my brick wall. I've had them for a very long time and they are the perfect guardians for my cottage. It looks like it's going to be another great day here -- hope you can say the same.

Fall Front Door Love


I love both of these front doors, don't you? the second one reminds me of my previous house. It had those bulls eye glass panels over the door. Also, there was no way to see who was on the other side, a feature I didn't care for. With the door on the stone house you could always peek out the window.

Good progress was made here today. The living room is finished. As I was cleaning the two outside living room windows, Webster was watching my every move with his nose pressed firmly against the inside panes I had just finished washing. Honestly, housework is a losing battle. I also did another French door (my last one) in the kitchen. I should finish the whole first floor in another couple of days.

I'm pretty sure the images are from Country Living.
