oh no @geezerette @MyShadowLove @PamfromCT @cowboy sam 

 

shhh - the BLABBERMOUTH will tell ya all somthin'

zoe doesnt know how to climb the fence - 

she didnt go out until the last few years

she has no experience of jumping and climbing to reach the 'REAL" outside world

 

she may see a kitteh on the other side of the fence or a squirrel running on top of the fence - she doesnt quite understand how it all works

 

now - that she is a bit older - she doesnt bounce around like she used to 

her superpower is mental - and she will convince many to do her bidding

she is relentless to get her way 

i suggest you take out the sim card - hide the charger - or smash the phone with a hammer - your kittehs will whine and say- zoe is not a cult leader - she did not brainwash us - it may already be too late 

 

i thought the kitteh support group is a way to meet new friends

hang out - meow to one another - harmless

i was wrong - apologies

here she is...... after so many months.....i lubs it ❤️💜💛💚🩵💙

the only thing that needs to be done is from the kitchen guy

front glass doors and 2 shelves right below

the backsplash needed to be done first

idk why the doors weren't put in.... sigh

the fridge fit - it was a lot of sucking in the stomach lol - so relieved

some items that i wanted to commemorate  the occasion- i bought them a while ago in anticpation - been stalking these artisans i discover for a few years and i probably have shown them when i received them eons ago

the 2 mugs from the UK (center mug from young niece for my BD gift) 

it also is handmade - but crumpled lol

the cutting board is from an artisan in alaska

harvest from the farm and the 2 glass pendants - i waited a long while

they are blown in MN - remember i paid extra for a signature and they dropped it off with the neighbor w/o ever ringing my doorbell....

coolest part is the faucet - u can tap the spout and water can come on and off

figure with dirty hands - no touching the handle is best

 

i have been cleaning the floors and even thought they left the place pretty clean -

no garbage at all

there is always a white residue - been going at it since early monring

brother and his son came to move the fridge

took everything out of freezer/fridge - then put everything back

i took them out to lunch - i'm pooped

 

this is the bathroom - just a classic look - nothing earth shattering

the vanity is the coolest part - it is a floating cabinet -

makes the smaller space look larger

dining room light - bulb peeks on top and bottom - brass inside - sedona red which doesnt really show up in the shot - glad i went with this than the stained glass

yahooey's place after dark

many complained that there was too much movement

and the suggestion was to use a frosted bulb and not clear - for a muted look

i did not comply - BRING ON THE FLARES

i just want to lay down on the floor and look up

Screenshot 2024-07-13 at 6.14.42 PM.png

 

there is still so much to be done - but not today

i want to thank all of preds friends 💜 for being supportive

from looking for lighting fixtures  and how to space them

- kelvin temps - and lumens - oh my the math - i'm very proud of how it all came out

they there were missing deliveries or mismeaurements - and the waiting and the washing of dishes in the tub - you have been on this crazy journey with me OY!

 

you are all SIMPLY THE BESTEST

 

it took me weeks - figuring it out - u all know the trials and tribulations 

in my head is an image -sometimes i cant articulate it - but eureka when there is terminalogy for it

 

me wanting the subway tile but not doing the bricklayer classic look

it has whtie grout so the pic may not show the design

i dont remember if i posted this on july 4th - here it is w/o grout

it is called 1/3 offet - but i just knew i wanted it staggered a bit

i really never see this done on HGTV - been watching it a lot during reno

prior to it - never saw a single episode of any of the shows

gonna chill out and have some ice cream later

dinner was a toasted bagel with creamed cheese

i still have not looked for the instruction on the induction oven or range hood

i have to put distilled water in a spout and run it first - it steam cleans the gunk

 

tomorrow is another day....

 

ai lubs awl uf ewes berry much🩵

@Yahooey, Everything is just beautiful!  Love all your choices,

made with loving thought.  Sit back and enjoy your new digs.

Wonder if you can sleep, as you won't want to turn those neat lights off.

All I can say is...it's perfect!  I love it just from seeing the pictures, so I can only imagine how nice it all is in person.

 

Enjoy your new home--you earned it.  Your patience has paid off.❤️

 


Oh, don't let on to Zoe that 'someone' spilled the beans about her.  She needs to keep thinking she's running the show.  After all, everyone deserves to feel special, right? 😺

@SouthernBee, How are you doing?  Concerned, as you have 

not posted for a while.  Any more updates with doctors?  Sure hope things are doing well.

I am sure you are making all the right decisions.  I k ow you are concerned about your weight. Well, interval dieting is working for me, very slowly but in the right direction.

 

Likely mentioned, but the trick is to force your body into goi g to fat reserves.  Have a decent lunch, then dinner.  Then nothing to eat until lunch the following day.  My doctor told me about this, but you may want to discuss with your doc.

 

I know about the high cost of living and all the challenges.

But I wonder if it would be possible to consider one of those machines, on the floor, placed under your feet, that slide your feet back and forth gently.  You may want to ask your doc about this, and wouldn't it be great if insurance would cover?

 

Take care, and hopefully you will be doing better.  Did you meet with your cardiologist yet?  Of course, these people invented so many tests.  But the results give you answers.

 

Take care!

Pam
