Do you think the time has come to rake some leaves? They are everywhere and, believe me, this is just the beginning. I do love seeing all the pretty leaves scattered all over the property…just not the raking part of it.
I came home yesterday to our landline phone not working. Again. (I think it all goes back to the lightning strike last July – the day after I returned home from a trip.) Last night, as husband and I were watching a program on television that we had been looking forward to, the power went out. Our neighbors’ power was out, too. We had to call the electric company but, as previously pointed out, our phone didn’t work. Much craziness ensued with both of us trying to get our cell phones to work (coverage is spotty out here in the country) and doing our best to see the numbers in the dark. We did get through and about 2:00 AM we heard the big Central Hudson truck idling on our road. Bless these guys for shinnying up poles at 2 in the morning. About 3:30 AM our power came back on.
I’m starting to get a complex about returning from a trip…
Right before I left for Chattanooga, I painted 2 more tables. These are on either side of the sofa in the den.
The room seems bigger and brighter. I like that. Now for more projects… and for the massive house cleaning that must occur before my sister’s visit at the end of next week!
Have a great day!
Love that porch, Claudia. The painted tables lovely. I need to do the same & get it out of my hair … maybe tomorrow.
Have a great week. TTFN ~Marydon
Ah, the sites of fall . . . I take cover when our birch trees start losing their leaves as my husband does NOT like raking!
Ah, fresly painted tables. They sure brighten up a room, don’t they.
Hugs,

Love the bright and fresh look your tables have now! Great job, Claudia!
Have fun with your chores! LOL

Isn’t that frustrating? We had phone trouble for a long time after one incident, the lines kept going down over and over. I hope yours doesn’t become a long term problem too!
Hi Claudia,
Thanks for coming by.
We have that leaf problem too.
I guess the trade off is shade in the summer. =0)
You tables look great!
Nice to get something off the list.

Great tables. Don’t you hate when the power goes out and you go into a room not thinking and switch on the light switch?
I wonder why it is that white on furniture seems to make the space seem larger? Sorry about the power outage. I hate those!

Gee Claudia, I had some catching up to do with you.
Chattanooga, N.Y. Head of the song of course.. but the town?
Happy Birthday to your dad. Lovely pic.
Love the tables and your sister is coming great news.
I’m planning a road trip also…to see the girls in the South? Hopefully N.C. Georgia, Fla.
I think we are going to meet in Fla.
Can’t wait, it will be right around the corner.
Love Claudie

Hi Claudia!
I’m loving the tables….so crispy!
Glad you enjoyed your trip, even if you did miss your family. I’d love to make that trip too.
Hugs,
Spencer
Thanks for the comment as always – I have been raking leaves too for the past couple of days. It is only the beginning – I know what you are talking about.
