Ta Da....

Done.... This is what it looks like tonight. All the furniture moved back in... including the piece on the sofa :~} Just Kidding. He worked hard the last two days. He did all the finish work today, putting up the trim and edges.
I love it. I need to get a real rug, that is just a throw on the floor right now.


When Mom left us yesterday, although she was helping, she returned with something. It was huge and I was wondering what she was up to. Well...


...you see, this placard, was made by Momma Willy. It used to greet us as we entered the cabin at Ten Mile lake. I think that is where I really fell in love with the saying. Yes, I fell in love with the saying. I have it plastered all over my house. Well, this left the cabin and hung over Treva Sue's bed. I saw it there, I noticed it and loved it and her, of course. Well, Mamma Willy gave it to me. What an honor! I cried! I might again. But, how special it is for me to have this, it has followed me for the last few years and tried to be my life's motto. So I cherish my gift, and will strive to live that way, for you Momma Willy, and for my dear Treva.

Your living room looks so nice. That is pretty special to have that saying in your house now.

The room looks great. I have that type of flooring also. I love it, but sometimes the dust bunnies overwhelm me. I love the saying. How special to have the sign in your house, but even more special to have such memories with it.

Love the floor . . . the throw looks nice, but a rug would be safer! *wink*
I have a piece of "furniture" that would to join yours on that couch! *smile*
Is that in your bathroom? That's the perfect match! What a way to get ready every morning remembering . . .
