I really want some built in shelves in our living room. My biggest thing is I don't want it to be stuffed to the max, distracting to the eyes, jumbled mess. I want it to be arranged prettily. We'll see if I ever get around to it. :)Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10613374148001368259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-80649174404815654692014-09-07T11:35:21.562-07:002014-09-07T11:35:21.562-07:00Thanks so much Trish - I think I'd rather be h...Thanks so much Trish - I think I'd rather be hot and have bugs than be cold and have snow flakes LOL<br />xoxoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04867123594514649770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-47177345988094500502014-09-07T10:57:46.184-07:002014-09-07T10:57:46.184-07:00Thanks Cathy

I don't get this way usually with the change of season....not sure why this time around. <br /><br />Wanted to let you know that I did the "bump" in high school. Thought I was very cool! Did you call your high school dances "sock hops?" We had a sock hop every Friday night we had a home football game. <br /><br />Love the built ins. I am showing my husband. I think we need some too, very badly.<br />Happy Painting.<br />PamGreg and or Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09086035908559829795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-86520557643697906622014-09-02T19:40:52.863-07:002014-09-02T19:40:52.863-07:00I'm sorry, but I am ready for Fall.

I do have to admit it's been a mild (for us) one though. We didn't hit 100 until August. <br />As for your built ins I'm loving them but I know what you mean. I'm always afraid of not liking something after we've spent lots of time on it. I hope once you get it all done, it will be what you envisioned. <br />Yay for the countdown to vacation! You need a chance to relax and get away!<br />Hugs<br />CeciliaCeciliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12444791923510261610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-53946282974270331022014-09-02T19:04:28.191-07:002014-09-02T19:04:28.191-07:00Suzan -- I am not happy fall is on the way.

I love autumn and Spring, I hate the cold and I detest the heat. Summer here is kind of like your winter, we're stuck in the house because its too hot to do anything. Last year after a week of 45 degrees (Celsius) I was pretty sure I was really going insane, I just cried & cried for some heat relief.

Maybe once you get the bottoms finished and a cozy chair to snuggle up and read with a glass of vino (after the cruise) you will warm up to them.
