Sunset/Game/Spider Tree and Article

Not the best catch of a sunset but
this was the view I was driving into
on the way to the barn Sunday evening.

When I say, driving right into
it, I was. BLINDING.

Not sure if I have any
Supernatural fans that read
my blog but its in the 15th
season, and their last yr.

I would get this for sure...
although I am not a fan of 
Monopoly. Do you like Monopoly?

Have you ever heard this 
legend?

No photo description available.

I heard of it one other time, that
was when I was in elementary 
school and we went to Cheekwoods
Christmas Tree showing.
You can actually read about 
Cheekwood here.
https://cheekwood.org/

Anyway, I actually saw a tree 
that was decorated to look like
silver spider webs. I liked it the 
most. It was so cool. That is actually
where I saw and heard about 
Christmas trees that hang from
ceilings. It was to keep the mice
out of the trees.  This legend above
is only the second time I have ever
heard this.

Is your tree up yet?

Look here...I did it again. Made another
issue of the local magazine, Life Between
the Lakes.

Hey Pam :)

I'm a Supernatural fan but since I don't have a television I stopped watching years ago, 15 years? Wow. Oh Monopoly...when Alex and I first met, his sister and her bf came to visit so I let them stay at my place. We had a night of Monopoly and I was playing to win, like we all do, and it put Alex in a tailspin, he thought I was playing against him and he was so mad lol... he had the crazy idea I'd help him win! Nearly broke us up - okay I exaggerate but it did cause tension. I have never played that game with him ever again because we are both too competitive lol!

Once in a while he asks if I want to play and I always say "not with you!" lol...we have other board games, but I won't touch Monopoly ever again!

That's cute about the tinsel story!

As much as I love sunshine, I don't like having to drive with it blinding you like that.
I remember playing lots of monopoly back in the day. I have never seen supernatural though.

We never watched Supernatural, the Dad wonders how he missed that one. We never heard of the Christmas Spider either. Hey, we'll quit with 2 strikes!

Lovely article. ~hugs~ I picked up a piece of trash from the street the other day, and try to gesture my thanks to careful drivers. Every little bit helps make a kinder world, I think (and hope). You took a great photo of that blinding sun. Be safe!

Love your article, and the Legend of the Christmas spider.

I've started writing some Christmas cards, but no decorations yet!

All the best Jan

The Rest of Today

Image
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 h...

Coffee Table Redo

Image
Morning all. Couple weeks ago I found this at a neighbors home put out on the side of the  road. Loaded it up in my Prius. It was heavy and LONG.  Standing it up next to me it comes to my shoulders and I am 5'2. My daughter Amber had told me just that week that she needed a coffee table. I think it was meant to be! Basic maple with a traditional  look and a formica top. that you can't do much with. So after checking with my daughter to be sure size would not be a problem I got to work. I built a frame. My thoughts were that if I made a frame and attached wood to that I could slip it right over the top of the existing table top.  Oops....forgot a step... before making the frame I spray painted the base in an ivory color.  Now with that step added in I  move on to what it looks like with the wood attached  to my frame. It slipped right over the top ...

Another Chilling Day - Brothers HOuse

Image
House/dog/bird sitting at my brothers house.  Of course this was Lily's first trip there. Dakota  has house sat with me many times.  Lily was not too sure what to think about Ms. Lola. She loves the ledge at the large windows! My brother has some really pretty sunflowers.....all about to give it up for the summer. Wasp drinking from the hummingbird feeder. Just wondering if these are hot... haha...I will pass on trying them  out though. Bell pepper hiding from  view. Check out the spider web. Loving this shot with the barn in the  background.  This is a form of a bush called Datura stramonium ,  known by the  English names   jimsonweed  or  Devil's snare , the seed pod.  Lily pads. Another bell pepper. Hovering over the pond. My sis in law has been canning.  Messi...
