I got up this morning and got straight to work hanging up my new curtains.
I had pink ones in our bedroom with a white rod.
Then my dining room ones had a bronze color rod.
I decided that the bronze color rod would look better in the bedroom with the new green curtains and the white rod from the bedroom would look better in the dining room.
So I had to take down all the hardware and switch it but I'm glad I did.
I think the green curtains do look better with the bronze rod.
My cats like to scratch at my curtains, they like to sit in my bedroom window and look out the window so they try to move the curtains if they are in the way.
So I tied them up like this for now hoping that would discourage them from scratching and I've ordered some curtain tie backs.
The white rod does look better in the kitchen.
But I'm not sure if I love these curtains or not.
I think I need another set to make it look fuller but they were expensive and I don't love them so I'm going to keep looking.
Maybe I'll just end up making some.
I'd like a valance of some sort to cover up the top of the window pane, I don't like how it looks.
Once I got that all done, I headed out for a walk.
My legs are really hurting from the workout yesterday so I figured I'd keep moving to stop them from seizing up.
It was slow going but I walked 6k.
The trees are still in all of their Fall glory..
We mostly just get yellows here but it's still pretty.
The leaves are starting to fall off of the trees though - that's sad.
Don't all those yellows look so stunning against the gorgeous blue sky?
It was a hard walk but I'm proud I got it done.
I ordered a new light fixture for our dining room - I don't like the one we have in there now.
I couldn't decide if I should go with the black or the gold so I got Jason's opinion.
He picked black which I was leaning toward anyway.
Canada Post is on strike right now so not sure if that will affect delivery or not but I'm hoping when we get back from vacation that it will be here.
My Aunt Marjorie sent me these pictures of my Dad when he was little.
I already had them but I still love them.
I miss him so much - wish he was still here.
I decided to get my Halloween decorations out and put them up since the day is almost here.
I took down some of my other 'everyday' decor and packed it away to make room.
I always put it away when I take out Christmas stuff so I'm just doing it a bit earlier.
I thought I had more Fall/Halloween stuff honestly.
I might make some more if I time before Halloween gets here.
I love this bat dish I found last year.
Even did some decorating in the kitchen.
This looks a little bare, I need to add something to it so I'll be on the hunt.
Then Haylee called to say that the girls were asking to come for a visit.
We hadn't seen them all weekend so of course we wanted to see them and Jason went over and picked them up.
Enjoying a popsicle with Papa.
She loves popsicles.
Freya was passing the time waiting for her noodles to cook.
Look at this little character.
She cracks me up.
She was just hamming it up for the camera.
They spent the weekend in Barrhead - they were celebrating Papa Lloyd's 68th birthday.
They went to a pumpkin patch/farm too and had some fun there.
Haylee did a photo shoot with the girls at Lloyd and Rita's.
Playing in the leaves.
I love how they turned out.
Miss Freya - my beautiful girl.
That's all for today, until next time, be happy!
