That 70s Room

The TV nook has been painted dark brown. We would have preferred paneling, but that stuff is hard to come by these days, as is retro patterned rugs and furnishings. We are doing this on the cheap, so can't invest in actual vintage items. I found a love seat for free at the dump which was in great shape. Just need to find some sort of throw or slip cover in the correct color. We're keeping to orange, yellow, avocado. I've been working on this afghan to use as a throw. Even finding the appropriate yarn color was a challenge.

Pyromania

My little firebugs. They came to visit yesterday and spent the afternoon puttering around. They decided to help their dad burn some brush. Got to love country living! Setting fires in the yard--can't do this in the city.

Christmas in July

Actually Christmas 2011. The annual departmental holiday party at Jackie's house where she always made lasagna and spinach/strawberry salad. It was the one time a year that Denise would eat anything "green." Seems like a million years ago. Denise and Susan have passed on. Molly, Jackie and Beth are retired. Diana is retiring in a couple months. That just leaves me, Lynn and Sharon to hold down the fort. Hopefully not for TOO much longer...
