7th Heaven

I have to admit that I'm in absolute 7th heaven with the current weather situation. Cool temps in the morning, 70's in the afternoon, cool temps at night! Man, I'm loving it. Long sleeves, jeans, kids in school and did I mention long sleeves? Beautiful! I wish I could live with this climate all the time, perhaps Canada is my real home? Just a thought eh.

Time is in short supply however! I can't get the things I want to get done, done before the day is over it seems. We did get Griffin's carpet removed and the carpet going down the stairs and man does that feel good. Griffin's carpet was so old that the back of it was burlap for crying out loud. Burlap backed carpet! geez!

So now before mom comes I have to paint two bedrooms, one hallway, one staircase. Touch up paint in two bathrooms, re-paint kitchen cabinets, install two ceiling fans and the list doesn't end there! David and Amanda should host mom this time and save me the nervous breakdown I'm about to have. :)

Snapped this photo the other morning of the sunrise coming into the dining room, it was prettier than it shows but at least I tried.


I've been taking some more pictures when I can and preparing those for sale plus trying to draw / illustrate / design as well. I need to get back into the swing of Etsy soon, the extra dough is much needed. Here's an example of another digital piece.


I plan on closing this blog soon and just using modernsnap.blogspot.com. Even though this one says modernsnap on the top, the actual web address is still lemongrasslove and I don't use that for Etsy anymore. I'll post when I do the switch-a-roo though!

Hope everyone is well!

Thanks for the update. You really do not need to do any of that list before I come. We're hardly ever in the house anyway. We have places to go and things to do, remember!!!
Do artwork instead. Remember David and Amanda are in Nebraska, my dear.

Cute deer...keep the pictures coming.
