EACH TO THEIR OWN

 


Hmmmm.  A few comments about our choice of cabinet for out on our dining room patio.

I did consider a box type thing, to keep seat squabs in, and to sit on.  But there is limited space... and we wanted to maximise the space available for storage and practicality.

We have 5 wooden seats for sitting on.  We will be getting two little wooden tables to sit between them.

The area we are going to put the cabinet is in a corner, separated from the 'seating' area. It is a 'dead' space.   But perfect for storing outdoor things.

ABOVE:  An older photo of that corner of the dining patio. The new cabinet is going in that corner where the bar leaner and plants/flowers are.  No one will want to be sitting in that corner on their own eh?  And it stays dry there, so I can feel confident the contents of the cupboard will stay dry.  Squabs, cushions, outdoor dining dishes etc. 

It is nice knowing people are invested/interested in our home and how we do things, but also remember it is our home. Thank you for your suggestions, please don't be offended if I don't act on them.

So... today I am going to start knitting me some more leg warmers.  The ones Bex made me recently made SUCH a difference, keeping my legs so much warmer.  I am going to make some in black, and then multi-coloured.

I've given up (for now), making teddy bears.  I started one and didn't like it at all, plus I stuffed up at the end... wasn't concentrating.

Tonight is WW, then my next Trulicity injection.  I'm praying tonight's one doesn't hurt like the last one.


10 am:  And I'm up, having stayed in bed until 9 am!  Yep, I was not in the mood to jump out of bed all eager for the day to start.
Over it already.  It's a grey, miserable day out there.  Just blah.

ABOVE:  I cheered myself up with a bloody HOT shower, then put me face on. I even put on some foundation and powder!  Not normal, but I felt I needed a pick me up.
I scrub up better when I try harder. lol

So now I'm off to Spotlight for some black wool.

  2. I like the cabinet, I would love one just like it for our pool area to keep towels and other paraphernalia in, it's on the list! What is a squab? You Kiwis have great names for things and places. Your outdoor area is going to be lovely when the weather finally warms up, still very cool here where we are (Riverina NSW).

  3. I like today's GOOD MORNING image. Whatever that is - you should make a scrappy doll version of it. It's really kind of C-UGLY. Cute/Ugly. In nothing but a GOOD way!
