Happy Thanksgiving -- a bit late..

Hope everyone had a great day. I did, went out with Hillary and her mom and another woman who I met that day. Beautiful rooftop restaurant, view of the bay, 80 degrees -- lovely company. Thanks Hillary!

Other than that, still recovering from fractured ribs, rash and a bad cold sore.

My camera broke. Or I'd show you pics of my dining room (formerly bedroom).

My glasses broke (eyeglasses) -- went to the VisionsWorks today -- to order new ones.

Everything seems a bit broken down.

I do not especially like the holidays.

But hope you all had a great one!

My New Bedroom

Feeling a little bit better... though not completely. Ribs still hurting, not as bad, but mostly in the mornings or when I push myself too hard.  Then I developed a weird rash around my neckline... so I've been pretty much "out of it" for this past month.

Anyway, enough about me. Thought I'd share some pictures of my "new bedroom" -- a huge step for me as this room was planned to be Bob's therapy room...

My grandparent's dresser from 1932.

The pictures above the bed used to belong to Hamlin Garland's mother,
given to me by great granddaughter. They are fashion prints from the 1860's.

Bob & I found this Victorian dresser in a junk shop when we were newlyweds.

I've had these antique curtain rods since I was 20 years old!

Ripley's favorite spot on the window seat and his wicker bed in the corner.

This photo shows the "true" color of the walls... during daylight.

Finally, we are all getting used to the changes, including Ripley! Will post pictures of the "dining room" (formerly my bedroom) once I get it together -- but will have to take some time with my ribs still hurting....
