Furniture shopping continues and my snarky friends are still being helpful. Their latest suggestion?
.

Well, it is green.

The dark eyed Junco is a small bird of the sparrow family that we never see until the snow flies. They’re always the first to appear after a storm and we’re not the only ones looking….
.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten keeps a close eye as well.
.
.
Well, that’s rude.
.
.
Trim work has started on the bedroom windows which means the man cave has once again been taken over….
.

And reeks of wood stain and polyurethane.

It’s odd how sometimes you read a passage in a book and it just gets you. This choked me up the other day. I hope it’s true….

Not to be all woo-woo – but your book quote is true. I have a life time of stories…

Don’t say the word pickle around me. I’ve had enough pickles these last few months to last a lifetime..

The Thin Mints signage is just perfect. So is that shot of Lord Dudley surveying his snowy kingdom for visitors. I love that lime-green furniture…but I have no idea why.

I miss the Girl Scouts going door to door. Most years cookie season has passed before I get any.

Oh my, those green sofas are bizarre. I like odd but not that odd! Interesting quote. Where’s it from?

A book in the Cork O’Connor series by William Kent Krueger. Can’t remember which one, I’m blowing through them now and am on #9.

I hope that you at least sat in one of those chairs, to experience what it’d be like to be a frog on a lilypad.

If you had kids, or a childlike sensibility, the green seating would make a couple of excellent blanket forts.

I actually love that furniture although not in green plus you would need a lot of room for them.
Also, you’re book quote gave me today’s blog idea. I hope you will participate.

I have a detailed “No…” sign on my front door. Fortunately, the Choc Chip cookie guy knows it doesn’t apply to him.

I hope the GREEN couches were from a book store or a library; they’d only make a nice reading nook, but the color….sheesh.
The junco is so cute!
Um, in the past few months, I’ve either read or seen on a show/movie about how the dead, the ones who are still lingering, are all around us. Those are the ones who haven’t’ finished their lives, or at least think they haven’t finished their lives. (this is all up to interpretation, of course)I just hope they steer clear of my showering/shaving/plucking/exfoliating time.

Agreed. There are definitely some things the dearly departed don’t need to see.

… please tell me the designer set out to create something hideously ugly with that love seat and divan! If so, they won top billing.
