Painting / Unusual Items

We have not been
moving fast on mom's
house but now we know that
we need to get things moving.

I stopped by on my home 
yesterday and decided I needed
to get in gear so I at least
grabbed the paintings.

I brought five home and I 
know there is one more I
need to get. 

Here is the Big Springs where
the small town of Cedartown Ga.
gets its water. I painted
this years ago for my mom since
she was born in Cedartown....
82 yrs ago this past Dec. 5th.

This hung in her living room.


Now it hangs in mine. 


Yesterday after leaving work
I had a couple errands to run 
then I needed to get my hair cut.
I had some time to kill
so I rode around a neighborhood
I have not ventured off in before
(unusual to me cause I have ridden
through most around me).
I found this on my drive around.

 

Now that is a neat mailbox.

HAHA...and I also so
this guy, guessing he lights
the way at night!


I am on a page on FB called
Upcyclers Anonymous.
A woman posted this yesterday.


Boyfriend had gotten her the 
gumball machine and I guess she
was at a loss for 
gumballs?

Pam AKA P2
was so touched by your
comments on her pics.
She wanted me to tell
you all 
Thank you.

A fun post, Pam. I like your painting. I know how hard it is to take care of the last of a home that is a parents. I wish you well with it.

Good luck with cleaning out the house and getting it sold. I had to do my family, 2 story house, all by my self. Hell on wheels!

You have brothers but somehow, I think they will let you do it, all by yourself, if you will do it. -wry smile-

Needs to get done, as it won't get any easier. Plus, an empty property is just begging for vandalism. Put a fire under your brothers!!!!!! -evil grin-

Oh and I love the gargoyle!!!!!

That mailbox is pretty impressive. I have to say though the gumball machine full of Barbie heads is a bit creepy.

I love the mailbox but will definitely pass on the Barbie Head filled gum machine. That is way above my creepy factor!!!!!!

Uh oh. Did something happen to make you need to get your mom's house emptied sooner rather than later?

The Rest of Today

After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Well, what was I thinking? HAHA After laying on my couch in so much pain all summer, I knew moving closer to  Amber was the thing to do, The timing of finding my dream home was off. However, Two days of Open House and I have a contract. Selling as is, minor repairs.  Inspection to be done after  the work in the  den and BR is done. The process of getting here while just a couple of weeks of healing was a challenge. My daughter was a big  help weekend before  last. I just collect to many projects that I  never get around to and that has to stop. I have to say, last time  was easier, I had moved into my childhood home before I sold the other, so it was empty when sold. EASIER. I hate moving so close to Christmas but it is  what it is. Fall seems to have made it to us the past week. I am surprised, we were losing so many leaves due to no rain,  glad to have some color. In between packing, cleaning, repairs and life in general, I have  managed to do a few things. I taught a paint class an
