Chairman Approval






Lets all have a collective hand-clapping and cheer! The Chairman approved. With gusto. He's very pleased. And so am I. It is nice when the empty walls of a house starts to feel like home. I know we're a long ways off, but it feels good for the nest to start feeling like 'ours'.

Got up early to get the wood stove fired up. After I let the dog out of the garage, there were R&T sitting there getting warmed up. It's kinda like the old days having a real fire to keep us warm, but it sure adds an element of coziness and togetherness. I will post one of M. so she doesn't feel left out. This was eating toast this morning before school.

I'm getting out of the house! Will do a bit of fun shopping and grocery shopping too. Think we'll have company on Sunday, so should get a bit ready for that. I love having friends over. When you enjoy cooking and love people, how much better can it be?

And no one is here today! I've had workers, painters, you name it coming and going for a week straight.

Better get at it...

And I promise! No more pictures of our bedroom. Even if the new bamboo tree I get is just awesome...

  2. AAHHH! Beautiful! and sure we want to see the tree too!
    The fire looks cozy. Had to start up the furnace here the last week, but I need some wood brought in so we can use the fireplace. It will be enough to take the chill of the mornings & evenings, & unlike the gas bill, is free!

  3. That wood fire looks cozy. We have a fireplace insert and it keeps us warm all winter. I am really hooked on wood heat. The house is looking really nice.

  6. it's a good thing you posted that top picture where we can actually see the wood stove.. because without it the second picture, it looks like they could be watching tv.
    one word comes to mind seeing the green. tranquil!
