Another reminder of my pinterest page. There are now over 8,500 photos/images on there that are not necessarily on here yet. If you wish to view them, I suggest you go there and become a follower as I pin on a regular basis, usually at least a couple of times a week.

We're still working on downsizing our stuff in this house. The other day I gave some solid oak dining chairs to a friend and hubs asked if I really wanted to get rid of them and I said yes very firmly. It seems like he likes all the stuff I've bought over the last 35 years, but there is just too much and at our age; it's time. I don't want to have my kids to have to do it for us if something happened. That's not fair to them and they pretty much don't want anything. They have their own "stuff" and don't need any more. I understand that. Just a few personal things will go to them and the grandkids. I'm just tired of having so much that we can't move things around in this house. My daughter is doing the same thing at her home in California.
Nice weather the past week. Today I asked hubs what the weather was going to be and he immediately pulls out his iPhone. He checks his iPhone for the weather every day. I look out the window and the thermometer on the patio to see what the temperature is. Much easier. He drives me absolutely nuts with the hundreds of apps he has on his iPhone. If I mention something, he has an app for it. Sigh. I may take up drinking and never be sober again!!

It's so pretty today that it looks almost like this around here. Curtains billowing in the breeze, clear skies and a beautiful day.
Everyone loves stone houses and the atmosphere that it brings to a home. This is especially cute, I think.
Isn't this decorative egg exquisite?
Our irrigation canals around here for irrigating our yards aren't this pretty, but they can come close in some areas around houses here for being shady. But I love the flowers and bridge in the background.
A quaint little guest bedroom in the French style.
A rather plain little living room but it's kind of cute with the French feel.
I like the pink in this room but it looks almost like a setting in a furniture store the way it's set up.
This room certainly asserts itself. Fabulous.
I've always loved rooms like this: huge windows, settee, ruffled tablecloth, pretty curtains on a window and a chandelier.
This is absolutely adorable. Black and white with touches of red and pink. I could live in this porch or sunroom easily. Darling!
Just a sweet dining area in a kitchen done extremely well.
This room belongs in a warm climate with its monochromatic color. Very pretty.
A fancy entry way. Two different chairs done in the same fabric to pull them together.
A cozy pink, white and gold sitting room.
What a relaxing room to dream in. French doors to the patio and a chaise lounge to sit and read. Great room!
