We’ve had nothing but rain and gloomy skies for weeks… so when the sun finally put in an appearance?
.
.
We were rewarded.
.
.
This was a strange rainbow as it was quite low on the horizon…
.
.
But it certainly didn’t dim the beauty.
And since I was standing at the open back door to take pictures, I asked the husband to keep watch over His Lordship so he didn’t slip past me to freedom.
.
.
You can guess how that went.
.
.
Though it did provide me with a nice photo of my two favorite men under a rainbow.
While we’re (none too patiently) waiting for the new living room furniture to be delivered, it’s time to turn our attention back to the bedroom.
.
.
The newly trimmed windows and sills are in…
.
.
The new door has been installed…
.
.
With its pretty morning reflection.
So now we need to get rid of that horrible dusty rose carpet the previous owners chose and replace it with a nice neutral beige.
I did a little preliminary shopping and fell in love with a Karastan.
.
.
Of course I did, it was the highest quality and most expensive available. Unfortunately the husband did not fall in love with the price and wanted me to choose something less pricey.
So began our carpet shopping saga.
You know the drill…store to store to store trying to find something comparable. He thought it would be easy.
He was wrong.
.
.
He brought this one home, but it was too grey.
.
.
He brought this one home, but it leaves those awful striped vacuum marks.
.
.
He brought this one home and asked Lord Dudley to choose, but nothing matched the quality, softness or color of my Karastan.
River's world.....
