<br />Incredible no?! 2 around the sign post and 2 more by the postbox. For some reason only the ones around the sign are flowering. The 2 around the front of the mailbox- very green but no flowers. Here are a few of the flowers. The only trick is you really do have to go out in the morning to see them. By noon they have all closed up.

<br />In the backyard we planted some sunflower seeds. They are coming up, just a bit slowly.

<br />Down the road a ways there is a field full of sunflowers. Hopefully the backyard will look like this some day.

First is the living room. The above picture is looking towards the backyard/porch. The furniture is all oddly placed because I have been painting. The left side is the original color (green/khaki)- the right side is the new color more of a gold/brown (Sherwin Williams 6123 Baguette). The trim is 6119 (antique white) and the ceiling (not painted yet- will be 6121 whole wheat) <div><br /></div><div>Turning around you can see the front of the house. The blue paper on the wall is a congratulations card Hillary and Isabella made for us.

I walk through the fabric store and think how wonderful it would be if I could figure out what to do with all this fabric (I'm not much of a sewer). I also have a number of pins that I don't really wear anymore (the 90's and the suits in my life have ended). Martha Stewart has this fabric covered bulletin board she does so I thought I could try that. The item on the left is an emtpy picture frame. The one on the right is cork over canvas.Kathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08433800367871444714noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119220458005059128.post-52537549965605070412010-05-22T13:09:00.001-07:002010-05-23T04:06:04.721-07:00Tree TrimmingTrimming has started, the arborist is wearing a green shirt. : <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5c6ksTt3VDnSUId-p7HtLMx0q116tzgXdywpIrCQSuICIvmLNLpRTpz-KIKWlVYW5sHK7WIwAuFK8vK4Y4tIWMde9zGVtwezeixeV5CKLDH5yOrNQs6CMcG1OGxTWiroq7-gd6_zomNs/s1600/DSCN1102.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 300px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5474189257588769074" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5c6ksTt3VDnSUId-p7HtLMx0q116tzgXdywpIrCQSuICIvmLNLpRTpz-KIKWlVYW5sHK7WIwAuFK8vK4Y4tIWMde9zGVtwezeixeV5CKLDH5yOrNQs6CMcG1OGxTWiroq7-gd6_zomNs/s400/DSCN1102.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br />Shredding <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFHQmH6KFhgHlJ-dXZv9n9L4cI8NddIyYe5L_pi9ZGcfWjvZYHsLNxITgDUUdC1zlyCzRLOauy5qxXzQjZTF0sQTpOnyiC7wAKJw90n547CFDnalAznDurbRSN50pXV61LfQ6M112Vh_E/s1600/DSCN1103.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5474189454303658898" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFHQmH6KFhgHlJ-dXZv9n9L4cI8NddIyYe5L_pi9ZGcfWjvZYHsLNxITgDUUdC1zlyCzRLOauy5qxXzQjZTF0sQTpOnyiC7wAKJw90n547CFDnalAznDurbRSN50pXV61LfQ6M112Vh_E/s400/DSCN1103.JPG" /></a><br /><br />Last one- still not 100% changed <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNldzqKdsPP_e0djm-rxyvvSV9t2op0DyU0fSE76gJOYFyoGDJucgQMmxNin9d6nrGr9P7xulmS_zotDPFbQ9syMtgXxJOCE-bfj6lbioq9sfVU-Czge53Af0DODgurqfNmUW-AkZVDfM/s1600/DSCN1105.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 300px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5474189701307381250" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNldzqKdsPP_e0djm-rxyvvSV9t2op0DyU0fSE76gJOYFyoGDJucgQMmxNin9d6nrGr9P7xulmS_zotDPFbQ9syMtgXxJOCE-bfj6lbioq9sfVU-Czge53Af0DODgurqfNmUW-AkZVDfM/s400/DSCN1105.JPG" /></a>Kathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08433800367871444714noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119220458005059128.post-72454849629079407052010-04-27T04:59:00.000-07:002010-04-27T05:05:56.292-07:00Found objectsI've been trying to figure out what I'm doing.

In 3 years I actually had 3 separate offices. One had a beautiful window that allowed me to grow plants with ease*. But I shared it with 6 other people (and my boss right around the corner). The second was a 2 person office that had no sun, but a lot of privacy (and the boss way down the hall). The last place was in a file room that had been converted to a 5 person office. That pink wall- that's the back of my desk. Along the floor- the files actually rolled out so that was a track system that everybody tripped over. It was about an inch tall.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwz_7e9fHZuyrvGu3Yr-Nq24mPiJEyNBgj8WWkCPKLg8aIlD2j-IzNUx6fV3z7sSARCI_00hwfytPVWnvIQIUjkQqvxPemebnA-o1zTqPX0Cu4c2ZjZ1OPAon0X7d7N-prEMiSZu1b7po/s1600-h/DSCN0919.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 300px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445123102247835042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwz_7e9fHZuyrvGu3Yr-Nq24mPiJEyNBgj8WWkCPKLg8aIlD2j-IzNUx6fV3z7sSARCI_00hwfytPVWnvIQIUjkQqvxPemebnA-o1zTqPX0Cu4c2ZjZ1OPAon0X7d7N-prEMiSZu1b7po/s400/DSCN0919.JPG" /></a><br /></div><div>Moving into the room, to the right is the side of my desk (my cartoon- doesn't every cubicle cry out for cartoons?) and the 2 people who sat behind me.<br /><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjib-PZYSK420RFRP-EIj8uYqMmQEEpyVuNzDPjbvnsTw37NVrHOJ3hnimQEtBMuKo1EqDo4yfyTb5X3QJTFzY6Rz0-BTDSWAMPShgqx6WL1J87NAHeebwKcqm8oM3P8QDf_sbEDpm8s-U/s1600-h/DSCN0917.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 300px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445123108737846450" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjib-PZYSK420RFRP-EIj8uYqMmQEEpyVuNzDPjbvnsTw37NVrHOJ3hnimQEtBMuKo1EqDo4yfyTb5X3QJTFzY6Rz0-BTDSWAMPShgqx6WL1J87NAHeebwKcqm8oM3P8QDf_sbEDpm8s-U/s400/DSCN0917.JPG" /></a> </div><div></div><div>And finally, my desk.
