This past week my daughter and I went to the first Kids Who Bird meeting (Audubon Society).
.
Last week my friend Web gave me a detailed tutorial on Danish Oil and how to apply it to my Danish chair, which I have been putting off..scared I may botch it and ruin the whole thing. So, I feel a bit more confident and motivated to continue with the furniture and painting in the Living Room. Web also mentioned braces for the couch, which I have tried to repair a couple times (its wobbly). So, unfortunately it's been sitting untouched against the wall, restricted from use.
So, this weekend I cleaned everything out of the living room that was littering the walls, corners of the floors, so I can paint finally in the next week or two. There is still pottery and glass and unframed prints spilling off the mantel because I am unsure of a safe place to house it all while painting and until I get the shelves done. Gray managed somehow to jump up there, as jam packed as it is, into a tiny open space and almost knocked 90% of it down.

hanging pottery still on the walls...

Days have been so much shorter and it gets dark and cold so so so early...
There are barely any more flowers in the back yard these days.
