We finally finished the laundry room…or at least finished it enough to hook up the washer and the dryer. The Masterful Mister “M”…worked hard to get the “easy to use- just peel and stick” floor to stay down!!! Because the room is so long, I was able to set a up a little art area at the back of it for the kids and me thereby saving my antique cherry wood dining room table from further distress.
We still have some touch-ups like painting the cabinets…Mister “M” is an absolute genius when it comes to figuring out how to make things…I told him I needed a folding table and something on which to hang clothes…He found a desk top to attach to an old sideboard I have. He is devising a retractable hanging thingy…I will post it when he finishes…since I am not sure how to explain it… Christmas festivities are at our house this year!!! I have big plans-I love working out big parties, decorating for them, and coming up with the menu. I think I will be doing brunch, and diner for one side of the family and diner for the other. I started the decorating…I wrapped the kids presents today while they are at school.
I love to look at presents under the tree.
As I ran around the house putting up the “kitchen” tree, listening to Christmas music, wrapping the presents, and stringing the lights…Loo in her new ‘kitty” bed-not so sure she is as excited about her kitty bed as I am, watched my busy undertakings with her characteristically enthusiastic expression…not sure I want to know what she is thinking…
Here is a page I made this week in my “spare minute” …I like the thoughtful feel…Claire has always been very easy to photograph-her moods come through easily…
Until next time…be blessed in this Advent season….Mary
