had an idea the other day when I was watching tv upstairs… I’ve been thinking it was time to change up the display in the living room table, so I got started…

found a number of framed photos from the computer room and my collection of fancy gemstones…

I gathered up some of my angels… I have given away most of them, but kept a few of my favourites, lol…

brought everything to the living room table and had a lovely time putting them into the squares…

remembering where they came from and why they were special to me…

such a lovely walk down memory lane;-)…

I’ve been thinking a lot about how blessed and fortunate I am… and I’ve been taking time to focus on gratitude…

yesterday I spent a few minutes enjoying this sunrise from the bedroom window…

it was so pretty and the fact that I had the time to enjoy it is such a gift…

today I spent a good portion of the day sitting in the living room, beside the Christmas tree, reading a book by one of my favourite authors, and watching the various birds come and go from the feeders… even though it was foggy outside it was a lovely way to spend time…

I took this photo this evening…

most presents are wrapped, nearly all cards are written, and advent treats have been opened for the day…

now it is off to bed I go;-)…

this week our group is moving indoors as it is cold outside, so I have been getting the living room organized… another chair has been added so that everyone has a separate place to sit…

a few days ago I spent some time covering a black and white chair so that it fits better in the living room…

it didn’t come out perfectly, but I am happy with the outcome… it is purple, after all…

side tables were moved, pledge applied, plants resituated, cushions replaced…

can’t wait for my friends to see it…

yesterday I wandered around the house taking pictures of the flowers that I found…

there were some in the living room…

some on the dining room table…

and finally, some in the bedroom;-)…

that is really what I like to see…

as mentioned many times previously, flowers make me happy;-)…

a colleague advised she had to pick up this magnet for me recently, lol… she also took this shot…

and a close-up of one of the bouquets, that just happened to be purple…

a lot of furniture was moved today… seemed simple…

it was that little thing where to make one change you had to make another and then another… thankfully my son-in-law and grandson were up for the job and made it happen…

ended in the living room… I am very happy with the outcome… need to change out the plants and the items in the drawers of the table…

this is the tv/guest room now…

and finally this is the downstairs look…

although when I am on the treadmill I face the tv, this does point out that I need to get some art up on these walls, lol…

now some decluttering and it will be all good…

enjoyment…

so I’ve been moving the flowers around a lot…

when I first opened them, I had them on the dining room table…

then they moved to the living room… I spent time there reading…

when I went upstairs to the bedroom they went along with me… I’ve really enjoyed them wherever I’ve been…

this morning I boxed them up and took them to the office… they smelled delicious and looked wonderful all day long… my colleagues enjoyed them too…

then at the end of the day, I put them back in the box and brought them home again…

they were in the living room for a while but are now here with me in the bedroom…

wanting to get as much enjoyment out of them as possible…
