Sunday Salon...

 Good afternoon.


TIME: 3:30 PM

SCENE: Partly cloudy and 81*.

DRINKING: a Sprite.

WHATS FOR DINNER? Stuffed Manicotti and Meatballs, Garlic knots.

PONDERING:
 
--visited my folks today. Mom has been sick yet again--and jmo, but everyone I know who took the booster shot have been deathly ill. Just keeping it real. She doesn't look well and it's difficult to see my folks hitting 80 in a few years.

-- It's interesting to see all the different shops that our hometown offers. There is a Publix, Walmart, Aldi's, Marshalls, TJ MAXX and hundreds of restaurants all near us and one another. Unfortunately, it might take a 1/2 hour to 45 minutes to get anywhere. For instance, my folks are only 5 miles, but it takes nearly a 1/2 hr.

--The pavers/colors etc. we are looking at to finish out the front area/sidewalk.

--taking photos of all the work my husband has been doing around the house.

--what to wear to work this week/ironing.

Late Saturday Post...

 Sorry y'all...we had some friends come in from Ohio during the week (they are staying with other friends) and we spent the day together. Tony is Croatian like me and it was nice hearing my native language that was spoken in my childhood home. We are hoping they make the permanent move here, right now they spend Jan-April here in Florida. ANYWAYS---how about the meme from this week?


Welcome once again to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4
where we hope you will stretch your mind, your imagination and your friendships online by sharing a bit of yourself with others.

This week the subject is Your Home.

1. What kind of home do you have, and does it need repair or improvements this year?

We live in a 3-bedroom 2 bath mobile home on a little piece of land. And the county came out yesterday and told us we got a brand-new roof in September, so, nope...no improvements, except the stairs my husband built.

when we moved in Oct.

2. How do you accessorize your home inside and out?  Plants, art, books, wall hangings, maybe music in the background?

Right now, we haven't done much outside, but we got plans. My husband has been busy this past week getting creative hanging photos/artwork. Also, been unpacking books.

3. What objects reside on your coffee table? 

I don't have a coffee table; I have an ottoman.


Side tables?

Two side tables both have glass lamps filled with seashells, my mother's blue depression glass candy dish, books, 2 flamingo wood statues, a seashell basket. 

Kitchen/Dining table?

The dining table has pink rose cloth placemats, a green depression plate that holds napkins and green depression salt and pepper shakers.

4.  Do you like your kitchen organized and with counters cleared off or do you prefer to have the things you use often out on counters?  Do you mind what some might see as clutter, or do you hate having to dig out tools and appliances when it comes time to use them? and prefer to have them within easy reach?

I like a clean and tidy kitchen, right now our kitchen needs a major redo, and it has no or very little cabinet space/counter space. I actually bought a desk (yes, its desk with cubbies inside) for a coffee bar.


I am really tired and have no new photos to share. I suppose I ought to get around and update house photos. I hope you all had a beautiful day.
