Here it is. Proof positive that I can and do, and did paint. And paint. And paint. Mom's island is officially blue. But it's like a pair of red shoes when you haven't got a red dress. So Mom needs a new rug. new curtains and some new accessories. Which is hard to believe. Extremely hard to believe. I walked through the house looking for reclaimed tchotchkes. A lamp here and a photo there. It was decided (I decided) that there would be no more country crafts in the kitchen. It sits next to an elegant dining room. I have been commissioned to finish the job. I have a big mouth. Does anyone want to come and work on my kitchen? Anybody?
Since it was the kid's break from school mom humored us with a trip to the Dinosaur park and Sizzler for lunch. I almost think Sizzler was a bigger hit. And I quote: Caleb "I love this place! You can just keep going back and back and back. If you want to go back sixty times you can!"
Enjoy the pics. And, as usual click on them and they will get bigger..

Oh the memories that one makes... These are good ones...
Great job - I love it!
Your photos are always wonderful to see.
I'm so happy you got a turn to paint something in that house. Everyone should get that opportunity, at least twice. Glad YOU did it and had fun doing it.
Ahh I wanna go to the island...
