So basically this is a antique kitchen with only the wine and retro refrigerator actually working. The wood burning stove was pulled out of a barn in the mountains of Colorado…found by Russ on Read more about #130…Retro Kitchen Reveal #1[…]
Last New Year’s I struggled with giving up on new year’s resolutions as I realized once and for all they were the call of the moment feelings….everyone talks about it…the hype of the Christmas season is over and now it’s a good time to do a good thing. It’s still hogwash to me. It still Read more about #126… A New TO-DO List…JUST DO IT![…]
Got ‘er done! We started with brick wallboard down in our basement….looked on Pinterest for color combinations using light brown furniture and decided the latest color is grey. But oh so many shades of grey, not to mention endless possibilities with browns.

I HATE CHANGE! Today, a few moments ago, I shut down my eBay store, tt SECOND GO ROUND by teptithings13. It was a great ride!

Took all summer to put this together, but we sure had a good time playing cards. I forgot to lay out a very brilliant gaudy turquoise multi-color round rug…we’ll catch it another time. I especially love my lamp with the shadeless lamp shade. $2 at a garage sale and 30 minutes to strip it! ! Read more about #114…Night Time Ambience on the Garage Sale Patio[…]
Bill and Connie came over last night for a bbq and to play cards. A dream night under the stars for sure. Thank you Jeff & Jodie Hummer for our beautiful stamped patio.

The Kansas City Chiefs Training Camp ends today at Missouri Western in Saint Joseph, MO. School buses start rolling tomorrow.

Thirty years of laundry, Read more about #110…My Happy Place[…]
This was a simpler fixer upper. Only 5 days of Russ having to live in chaos, not asking questions, and sometimes having to make the bed because I did not have time to even consider it. So the first pic shows our white room with magenta panels hung in the corners to match the one Read more about #95…Wrapping 2019 Decor Around a 1970’s VELVETEEN Loveseat![…]
RV camping with the club gang is the best! Clif walked the dogs in the rain. Jim B did his daily steps on the paths, Russ built 2 campfires and Diane H and I went back to nature and followed the trails. The Yard Sale app took us directly to Cameron MO, but was sparse Read more about #93…Back to Nature at Wallace State Park[…]
