Over at her place, Stevie posted a picture of pint sized vignettes. It made me smile. It also made me take a look around my own house. There are things that I love, little places and spaces that make me happy.
This is above the livingroom door. Such a hopeful thing.
I'm a fan of whimsy.
Tim's Galileo thermometer.
He's a fan of clever.
Kabluey II, my fish has lived for 7 months now. He comes to the front of his tank to be fed when he hears (feels?) me coming. Unlike Kabluey I, this fish has managed to avoid drains. That makes me very happy too.
My latest find. Well, later-ish...It was orange. Tim repainted if for my birthday. It fits so perfectly into the kitchen. I really love my kitchen. Tim wants to remodel it. I want it to remain as it is.
My very latest fine. $3.99 at the Goodwill. We've been having a time with our cordless phones. Lots of thunderstorms and power outages have lead to some problems. Sometimes when the phone is hung up, it does not register as being hung up, and people cannot get through to us. Other times, the phones will be ringing, and when you try to pick it up, it continues to ring. When you are running up and down stairs trying to find out which phone is malfunctioning THIS time, it gets annoying. So I wanted a non-electric phone, an old fashioned corded phone. Look what I found! It is heavy and the 'rotary' dial is actually a touch tone phone, but I love the looks of it, and I love the big satisfying old fashioned ring of it.
This hangs on the wall right next to the previous phone. My uncle updated it so that it can be plugged in, but inside it has a rotary phone dial, so we don't use it.
At the end of the day, I'm always happy for my bed.
Late edit: don't know what's up with the spacing, but I haven't got time to figure it out. Always something, innit?
