I can't hardly believe it is already August. I don't know where the summer went. The girls start back to school in about two weeks and I will really miss them. Laynee will be in the third grade and the twins will be in Kindergarten How time flies. But, they are so excited to go back to school. They love it. It is just so sad that we have to worry about especially little ones during this traumatic time of our lives.
The girls' school underwent a complete renovation this summer. One of the things they told us about was that each room was getting a new "closet". In my mind I can only think that maybe it is a safe room.
My flowers are all late bloomers this year. I assume it is due to the intense rains and flooding we had all spring. And now it is heat factors up to 110 degrees. So I imagine they will fade pretty fast.
If you remember my pink master bathroom, I am getting ready to start redoing it - slowly but surely. I have found some absolutely gorgeous wallpaper for one wall. If you remember, I did the small window in lace and doilies and am loving it.
It will be in all shades of cream, tan and off white. I am working on it a little at a time.
Passed my four month mark on my shoulder surgery. It is doing great. See the surgeon on Thursday for check up.
Stay cool and enjoy the summer.
Judy

DeleteOh I love the window idea of doilies...that's neat! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting!
ReplyDeleteHi Judy, I sure have missed you. Glad you are enjoying your family. I can not believe those girls are going to kindergarten. Your plants look good. Happy to hear about your shoulder getting better. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteThanks Susie. All is well here just time going too fast. Hope you've had a good summer!
ReplyDeleteThe plates around the tree are so cute.
ReplyDeleteThanks! The sweet potato vine is about to cover them tho.
DeleteHappy to read your blog, and the heat is keeping us inside here too..California 110 today in Palm Springs, 100 here in Temecula! We are so over summer, how about you?
ReplyDeleteHeat index today is 115@ yuck. But I think our summer is just starting. Ready for fall. Thanks for dropping by.
DeletePs Love your doily window!! Super idea.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting
DeleteHi Judy,
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to hear your surgery is healing nicely. I feel like I have missed a lot of summer with the move so I am taking these last few weeks of summer and trying to enjoy them. The girls are getting so big. Can't believe the twins are ready for school! Gosh it is so sad to think they have to have safe rooms in school now. I worry about what kind of world our grands will be living in as adults. Something has to change with guns and violence and mental health. I just did our bathroom in the new house and love it. Good luck with yours. Good to see you posting. Miss your posts.
xoxo
Your bathroom looks so good@ great job.
ReplyDeleteI love how you have the doilies on the window. Can't wait to see how you re-do the rest of this bathroom.
ReplyDeleteIt is so sad to know that kids now have to practice active shooter drills and hide in "safe rooms". This should not have to be a reality in our schools.
I totally agree Melanie. Interesting that they called them big closets. I am just assuming they are safe rooms
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting.
Girl, it is nice to see you here! I love that doily window! The safe rooms are the new normal in so many schools. Gotta keep the kids safe however we can! Have a blessed day dear friend and don't stay gone so long. HUGS!
ReplyDeleteHi Theresa....
DeleteHave missed you too. Thanks for stopping by.
I had been wondering where you were off to! Didn't know (or forgot) that you had the shoulder surgery. So glad it's recovering nicely.. and that you'll be able to do that wallpapering in the bathroom! I would LOVE a pink bathroom! Out HEAT is gone for the moment... only in the 80's this week which is wonderful. Glad to see you back blogging again and I agree, the summer has zoomed by. I'm looking forward to a cooler September (hopefully) and October. Marilyn
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you. Our heat index today was 118. It was awful
DeleteSummer is flying by indeed! Your flowers look lovely and the plate border is so fun. Love the lace window treatment!!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Thanks Jann for dropping by. I'm afraid were going to have warm weather for a while. It's been really warm here.
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers and I love that window! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful week, take care...
Titti
Thanks for dropping by and the nice comments.
ReplyDeleteHope all is going well with the school year. Yes I think you are right about the closet. We have had active shooter drills in the school for two years, such a horrible time we live in where this is now the norm. Good luck on the bathroom renovation.
ReplyDeleteI"m glad your shoulder is improving. I'm trying to recall how long my husband's shoulder replacement took, but the end result was worth it.
ReplyDeleteThat little window is so pretty with the lace and doilies. It has been a while since you posted, I hope you are well and your shoulder healed.
ReplyDeleteI check in on you once in a while. Hope is all well with you. Would love to see what is happening with your bathroom. Pam
