I think it’s pretty lame that there’s dust on that ornament after it was only sitting out for a day.

On this here blog, or in real life, actually.But I do have lots of real life, and a whole lot of seed-planting.

That makes for a better story anyway, don’t ya think?Thursday, 8:17 a.m.. I’m never that type of person who can get a good photo of a bird.But there he was, sitting on the little pine tree right outside my window, framed by the kitchen door window, the wreath, and the mudroom window, with that lovely cornfield in the background.. Do you see him?You may remember seeing my living room before around here from time to time..Today my living room is the scene of a bit of an oddity, the unsittably pillowed chair!.

I’m sure many of you reading today have a pillow problem as well.It’s not that I necessarily buy or make too many (OK, Chris may disagree here), it’s just that once I get the right pillow in the right spot, it.

staying.. That’s gold, people!

Such a rare thing to encounter.Especially at this time of year, when we want our homes to feel really crisp and fresh.

So take a few moments to tidy up your clutter before you put out just a few summery items.After that, I just like to have a damp soapy cloth with me so I can wipe surfaces down as I put out my new decor.

It makes all the difference!.When it comes down to it, the real joy of summer is being able to enjoy as much of the outdoors as we can possibly handle.
