I need to print it out and hang it in front of my computer ;-) I really enjoy reading about your week, what a fun way to look back and such a great memory for later too. Can't believe you have snow already! I think I'd become depressed if we had that here. Winter is so not my season ... When we moved back to Belgium from Australia we wanted a big artificial tree too, and the prices were outrageous. In the end we found a really big and beautiful tree in a thrift shop. Try looking there, you might be surprised :-)denthehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14253123767521383516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514394646355489375.post-51721283360718743832018-10-10T12:09:07.825-07:002018-10-10T12:09:07.825-07:00Aren't moving pads an absolute lifesaver when ...Aren't moving pads an absolute lifesaver when it comes to moving furniture!! I love them. We went from the upper 80s to the 60s in 24 hours....with four inches of rain over the past couple of days. Autumn is here!! Before long, we'll be sipping hot chocolate and Bailey's in our jammies while watching it snow outside. And, yes.....wet poodles/doodles are a definite challenge! Although Cabo is loving our walks in the cooler temps. Happy you're content inside and hope Milo can find some safe games to play when he can't be outside. I feel the same way about my bloggy friends...we all can have a virtual lunch together!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13327150853027786634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514394646355489375.post-7459877528051005752018-10-09T11:01:02.811-07:002018-10-09T11:01:02.811-07:00I loved reading your post today: just all the fun...I loved reading your post today: just all the fun things and thoughts you had. On the Christmas tree, we spent the first 29 years (approximatly) hauling in a live tree that lived in our yard. The last few years I was worried about my hubby putting out his back as we pushed it in (it took him, I and our adult daughter to push it in, the pot full of soil made it so heavy!), so I finally convinced him that we should get an artificial tree. Yes! No hatching of gnats in the house when their eggs felt the warmer temps of the house! No more pine needles sprayed all over the front room when the tree squished through the opening of the door! But the tip I wanted to give you is to wait out this year, go check out the trees in the store and find the one you want. Then go to the store very early the morning after Christmas and buy the tree at half price. It works and is worth it!! I think we paid $100 instead of $200. Have a great week!

That way no new, expensive tree and lots of room to spread out and sort through all the Christmas stuff...some to keep in the changed life and some that need to move on. Easier to sort when it's all spread out! Keep at it.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14835393634763024001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514394646355489375.post-22804210043405285402018-10-08T16:00:40.237-07:002018-10-08T16:00:40.237-07:00I don't want to see snow yet!

Working with preschool children, we all love the rain UNLESS we are at school. Oh my, those kids NEED their outdoor time (teachers, too). I shared calendar inspiration today as well. Hope you have a wonderful week ahead!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08993104398196469720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514394646355489375.post-91084221082260130322018-10-08T13:41:16.027-07:002018-10-08T13:41:16.027-07:00I am never bored either! so much to do and learn a...I am never bored either! so much to do and learn at home.

But there were about 48 hours of torrential rain and t storms, which I managed to be out doing something 4 times ended up soaked to the bone. :D Summer clothes/winter clothes, yep on my radar. Supersliders are awesome! I know. I am moving furniture, staging for stuff to get stored in the barn, stuff to return to the house for the winter....you are doing great with your changes and be patient.
