Every time we go out the door to an estate sale, we bring
something home. As a result, we live in
a home of happy clutter. Here a gros
point cat, there a Christmas kitty, and over here a spotted cow. G brought that one home, and he knows it’s
gross but he loves it. It’s signed and
numbered. I need to find a new home for
it tho American history is littered with Spotted Cow ditties, literature, and
songs, it’s awful to my eyes. He still
loves it, so the spotted cow stays. Somehow.
Then again, who am I to say anything as I am responsible for
the painted frog, chicken, and elephant that sit near him.
Yesterday was about cutting the collectibles down so we
could see ourselves think. Today is
about being sociable in the midst of chaos.
- Himself: Washed his new cowboy coat and got much of the oil out of it. It’s a really good piece. Breakfast with the Captain, worked as a docent, and off to see “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel” and it was even better. They tried to charge us 20 bucks to park with a validated ticket, then 8 bucks, and only after objections did they waive the parking fee.
- Herself: Got much of the house simplified. Today R stopping by, Tomorrow C, and the place looks less cluttered.
- Reading: Get to pick a new book.
- Balance: Being with G.
- Olympics: http://www.nbcolympics.com/
The painted cow stays, it's wonderful.
ReplyDeleteGrrrrr! Commenting via phone is being troublesome again! I wanted to say how much I love the cow!
ReplyDeleteSurrounding yourself with things that you love. Good taste! Enjoy them.Also loved Marigold Hotel and book it came from "These Foolish Things".
ReplyDeleteI am about to finish a book too. So exciting to think about what to read next. Too many books too little time I think. How can anyone be bored?? BTW come check out my new photo of the begonia. I really like this one. Dianne
ReplyDeletePS as for clutter, it never goes away I think.
Doctor Livingstone I presume?
