Perfect For Glasses

Tomorrow is the last day of the Extra 20% Off exclusive for employees of the store I am working in. I think of stuff to buy for myself but I already got the dress and fragrances that I wanted.

Now my next step is to shop for home furnishings. Fall is approaching and the get-together plan for Thanksgiving Day is in the to-do list. Kitchenware is the major thought right now for I am starting to organize my kitchen, again. I have to find cheap glass racks for our glasses. My honey bought a couple of wine glasses (for me) and I need to put them in a wine glass rack. Organizing my kitchen is a bit difficult because I do not have enough space to store my things. But for my wine glasses, maybe a stemware rack is perfect for them.

What's New In The Neighborhood

The house is pretty much doing fine right now. Everything is well inside and out(in the yard too) except the leaking vent pipe. But my honey took care of calling the builder about the problem. He will be expecting a call from them any time soon.

The neighborhood looks pretty. Some of the neighbors are starting to groom their garden. And I noticed that the other neighbors have new address plaques at their gardens. That looks neat. The house next to ours has a new address sign by the front wall. I have not thought there is a place to get a specialty wall address plaques or address signs for our homes. 'Looks cool.

Back To House Hunting

Before our house was rented, my honey and I drive to towns nearby on weekends during the summer to look for houses. He likes to do that since we settled here in the city. We stopped doing it when gas prices got so high.

Now it is like we are going back to house hunting again. We started in the neighborhood close to our place. The house was pretty, well-furnished, and was newly built. The interior looked neat with plenty of decor...lovely paintings and stunning chandeliers in the living room. But the price was not cheap. We were speechless when we saw the specs. :)

The Traditional Home Decor

We received the first bill from the storage. It is somewhat odd because we are now having an additional bill to pay monthly...to think that this is the starting month we are paying for the storage of our stuff from the house. We miss our house in the country. Now that there are new occupants in the house, it makes us feel...you know.

Moving was not easy for us last year. We did a lot of planning where to store the housewares, appliances and furniture. We have large, delicate home decor that needed to be carefully lifted. One of them was a wall clock owned my honey's grandparents, which was given to him years ago. We are happy that we had it all done and presently we are settled in the city pretty good.

My honey's family moved a lot during the years when he was growing up. Also they have the tradition of passing furniture and home decor to family members. Though he is not interested in decorating the house, he likes good interior design...he likes the good stuff for the house. To balance the look of our home now, we found a grandfather clock that will look great at one of the corners in our living room. Also, we looked at other grandfather clocks similar to what we saw. But my honey liked this one among the others.

Little Chair

We bought this little chair from a church garage sale in Wylie. It's only worth a dollar. My honey said we can use it as a stand for a pot of plant or something. But I am not going to use it that way. This little chair is too pretty for that. So, I just use it whenever I do my nails once in a while and I sit on it when I do my gardening work.
