It's Fall, You All!!!

I can't believe it! We made it!! I actually can sleep with the windows open and the a/c OFF!!!! Yipeeeee!!! So how do I know it's Fall?? Here's my list:

~ There is a special golden color to the sun that makes the sky seem bluer and everything seem clearer.

~My 'coonie is shedding his summer coat and there are clumps of maine coon fur hanging off him and all over the floor. (coonies shed in clumps of hair)

~ There's a delicious smell in the air of cinnamon, spices, and earth.

~ The early mornings are cool and crisp and clear -- lovely!

~ I have energy to tweak and redecorate.

~I can go to Aunt Daisy'shttp://auntdaisys.com/ Harvest Celebration next week!!!!! If you live anywhere near Emmaus, PA -- don't miss this! Gee, I've been looking forward to this all summer long!

Speaking of tweaking, I did do some major stuff this past weekend. I was glued to the Ted Kennedy funeral all day Saturday, so while I was watching TV, I gt int a major blue paint fit. I also moved my sofa, which changes the living room around (more pics to follow after I vacuum up the hair clumps). So, here's what I did....

Remember my red paint chair (the one I said I would never paint? I lied.) Redid it to a blue, moved it from the bedroom to a corner of the living room.

I love how the old red paint peeps through the blue, don't you?

I'm not sure why I am losing my passion for black, but I even redid my make-do hutch. And -- I moved the book-keep to the top of it and converted it to a bowl holder. Here's the bottom shelves...

moved my sofa and made an sofa table.... with nice fresh yellow daisies in a jar.


SOOOOO, I have lots more to share, but I need to get to a meeting in the city, so I must be off. More tweaks soon!!

Enjoy early Autumn!
