~Happy St. Patty's Day~
It is cold and raining today here in California. Quite a big change from yesterday! Luckily, I have a green raincoat to wear for the errands I need to do today. It kind of makes me happy to wear a raincoat, and I'm sure it's because we get so little rain. I love these days! :-) I'll try to remember to take a pic later when I am ready to go.
It's just the little guy and I for the day. Mr W is returning from his airline trip this evening. Since it's just the two of us, I thought we would head down to the valley today, and hit the huge indoor mall that also has a Target attached. We can shop and have lunch at the Nordstrom cafe. They even have a cool old fashioned carousel there, right near the Starbucks. (That's a win-win, if you ask me!) I can get everything done, and stay warm and cozy (while still wearing my cute green raincoat). See? I'm a planner! ;-)
I thought that I would show you the pretty spring daffodils I picked up at Trader Joe's yesterday. They were still closed when I brought them home, but I stuck them in a vase of water, and when I woke up this morning, they were beginning to open. I went outside my front door and snipped some ivy and a couple asparagus fern stalks to add some green to the vase.
I love daffodils!
I also found a photo or two to add to my new home tour tab at the top of my blog. Check it out if you get at chance.
I accidentally left out the downstairs bath and a photo of the kitchen that I want to include.
Here they are...
This bathroom is OVERDUE for a reno!
I am itching to change the marble countertops and brass fixtures and trim. Ick!
I have tried to decorate around it, since there are so many other places for the money to go, but I think I need to address it soon. Also the kitchen will be getting new appliances, and at minimum another paint job for the cabinets. I am thinking light and bright.
Well, that's all for today! Hope you all have a great weekend!
Take it easy on the green beer. ;-)
