Running out of summer


So many projects to get done. I have this $5 divider I got off of Craigslist--stealing an idea from my sister Kathy, to use it to hide the exercise equipment in my living room. It's not long enough, so I dug out the two shutters I bought a couple of years ago that were the wrong length. They aren't the same length, but with one on each end it should look okay.

I have countless other things I'm tripping over for projects. Wallpaper for the ceiling in one cat room. Painted shelves that have not yet been hung. A half painted landing, with paint cans in the hallway. Oh well. Just keep on chugging.

For my mom

This may be your next Christmas present! A Scarecrow for your pigeons.

Finding a home for my sign

Awhile ago I was searching for a name for my farm, and came up with "Abbey Farm." I talk to my house sometimes, and her name is Abbey. :)

I spent many hours painting this sign for the barn, however it was confusing to people when they came looking for "The Owl House" and they would drive on by. So I brought it up to my porch. I wasn't going to toss it because I'd put so much time into it. It finally occurred to me to give it away to another Abbey Farm.

The internet makes this possible.

So I'm posting it here so I can point people to it. I'll reach out to Abbey Farms, from smallest, to largest, until I find someone who would like it. Then I'll ship it off, and it will have a new home!

Then I'll need to paint a new sign for the Owl House.
