New House Pics

Moving stinks.

No, seriously.

I mean, having a gorgeous new cottage to foof and primp

and shop for is beyond wonderful, don't get me wrong.

But the rest?

The packing, the unpacking,

the heat ( correction: the stifling heat ),

the scavenger hunt for basic household neccesities

lost in the move...that  is no fun whatsoever.

It is very slow going on the feathering-our-nest front,

but you're still going to get pictures, every step of the way.

Today, you're getting unedited, slightly blurry,

"oh well, they're better than nothing" images...

Hope you enjoy!

 Welcome to the foyer, the entry hallway,

the vestibule.

 Winnie checking out her new digs.

She's not too sure about this old house.

She hid under one of the beds for hours and hated me 

for several more.

Then she cautiously ventured out and became the

little intrepid explorer I know and love!

 The living room.

Nothing special right now, much work to be done yet.

 Pardon my Urban Outfitters
ruffle laundry bag draped on the sofa.
It looks totally contrived, like I draped it there for a photo op,
but I promise that's not the case.

 Another peek at my beloved Carol Hicks Bolton sofa, Babette.

Yes, she has a name. 

Of course she has a name! Just look at her.

Still have MANY smocked cotton panels

to hang in this room. That, and to replace the existing shades

with white wood blinds.

 My little corner of creativity,

and the Winster doing her explorer kitty thang

So that's it for now.

I still have to figure out what's going to be hung 

on the walls and where.

And oh yeah....where the toilet paper is, too!  ;-)

Have a wonderful Thursday!

{ it IS Thursday, right? I've lost track in this moving fog! }

P.S.

I haven't had a spare moment to catch up on correspondence

or visit blogs, so please forgive me and bear with me.

Once normalcy returns, I'll be by to visit!
