Sunday

I have had a fairly relaxed morning although I did clean up a few spots here and there.  Since there is still work to be done on some of the windows I might as well not worry about getting things back in order completely.  Tomorrow I hope to find usable paint in the cans so that I can do some touch ups around some of the new windows.  

I've been looking at ideas for window treatments online, and found several that I might like - ones that don't cover the windows unless I want to pull them closed.  I will talk to Ara about some of the ideas I like as she has said she would make the curtains for me.  Right now I'm enjoying the uncovered windows.  Even on an overcast day like today, my house is so much brighter!

Jeannie invited me to come over to their house for dinner.  Donald's Mom has an Easter ham that she wants to bring over, so I will enjoy the company.  

I went out and started my car, which worked perfectly.  Just in case though, Ara is picking me up and driving me to Jeannie's.  It may not be the battery at all, and I don't know enough about cars to understand the ignition system, etc.  I think I will take it to Jesse's Neighborhood Garage; Jesse is undoubtedly the best mechanic for miles around and I hope he can find and fix the problem.

Enjoy the day, and I'll be back tomorrow!

  1. Doesn't hurt to have your car looked at by a mechanic. They don't usually heal themselves and you don't want it to let you down somewhere unexpected.

    1. Everything was wonderful. It was so good that I wanted to go back for seconds of everything, but I was too full to eat any more!

  4. Since I wanted my windows to be covered during cold winter nights, I bought heavy drapes and then extended the rods out beyond the window edges so I could pull them back and completely expose the glass. It looked great and like I had even bigger windows than I did when they were open.

    1. This has been an unusually chilly winter (not really cold) and I'd hate to install anything to cope with something that might not happen again for a while. I really prefer "next to nothing" coverings which is why I like lace and sheers. I may just re-hang them for now until I see something I really love.
