Where does the time go?

Have you ever noticed that your vacation week goes by faster than any other week?? How is that? LOL. I had an odd week -- busy at the beginning, then caught some kind of virus and had the worst chills and joint aches -- bleck. Then felt fine in about 2 days, but took it easy. Sat out on the deck with a good book, relaxed, saw friends. Which reminds me, one of my very dear friends bought a home in Media, PA and I went to see him (finally) while I was off. It's the CUTEST thing!! An old farmhouse -- red shutters, long windows, lots of flowers and land...small rooms... I was drooling. And he loves to do TS trips -- ahhh, what the economy is doing to people! LOL -- I should have opened one and would have made a fortune now!!

I have gotten so much done, but haven't downloaded all my pics yet -- I'm constantly fixing here and there because it's time for a new slide show for sure! So in it's place (and since I have my drool rag nearby!!), I'll show you some eye candy for your pleasure. These are off the Internet -- can we talk fabulous here?? First of all, remember a few weeks ago, Linda from http://behindmyreddoor.blogspot.com/ and I were going on and on about Aunt Daisy's in Emmaus, PA. Here is why..... look at this stuff... perfection.

This is their common room.... and... will ya just look at this hanging desk?? Oh, be still my heart!

and what a great idea for a laundry area -- a dry sink and fabulous goodies.

Then I came across this lovely dining area, not sure where I saw this, but it looks very familiar! I bet this belongs to one of you!

I guess one has to have the perfect house to place all these treasures, so I found that too.

This one works for me....

of course, I wouldn't turn this one down, either...

Hmmm, this is starting to look like Historic Williamsburg....

and then there is:

Mount Vernon!!! I remember my mom and I went there years and years ago (it was SO HOT in Washington in August) -- but I'm thinking I may take a weekend this summer and go back to revisit it. It is truly a lovely place on the Potomac River. George and Martha did it right, that's for sure!

Ok, I must go get a new drool rag now, so I will say bye bye and show off some finished projects (maybe) tomorrow. The only thing I haven't done is put the shelf up over my patio door -- I don't have a 7 foot shelf. That will come soon, maybe this weekend after a trip to Home Depot.

Have a good nite, everyone! (Sorry, Gina, no kittie pics tonite!)
