Monday morning I ran around… brought up the snow people and the big sleigh from the basement…
a glittery cloth, a stool, and the setting was ready…
took awhile, and a few bits of rearranging, but eventually they were ready to go…
from the window, to the table under the tree, to those in the sleigh on the floor, the snow people took over the front window area…

I am getting very tired of the overcast days;-(… today it was dreary even though the temperature was near 0°…
I spent time rearranging some of the plants in the living and dining rooms…
I added a couple of plants to the area around the Japanese Maple…
the fern from the den was taken outside and shaken because it was losing fronds like crazy…
after getting the loose pieces off, I moved it to the living room, hoping it might like the new spot better, although I’m not sure I like that spot, lol…
the dracaena got moved into a less bright space and I am contemplating a stand to go where it had previously been that would hold more plants, lol…
after that I rearranged and put away pillows…
now, if we could just have some sunshine…

as we declutter the basement, we have found a few things to move into other areas of the house… and our goal is to set the items up as they get moved, lol…
most recently, a light fixture that originally came from my parents’ apartment made its way into the den…
it got screwed into the wall, a smart bulb was added to it and connected to Google Home…
working nicely and it will be great for guests when the couch transforms to a bed;-)…
