Living Room Mid 2008I gave this sofa to sweet daughter when she moved into her house. It wasn't new, wasn't perfect, but it was greatly appreciated with moving into her first house. It looks very good in her family room and will do for a few years, especially while Cody Puppy is growing up. I also gave her that square coffee table. It's great for entertaining and it works well in her living room. So right now the living is rather naked. The French chairs are still there, the rug is different, and the black marble top chest is still there. It will look pretty much the same even after I find the sofa. I'll have to do some detailed posts on this room, it might be interesting to see some of the elements that have gone into it and how they were accomplished.
I'm thankful that I have this picture to motivate me to go look for another sofa sometime this year! It just seems I get more distracted from these kind of tasks. I'm thinking for moving the dining room table in there until I get around to deciding on a sofa. There are just way too many things that really need to be done, and I'm not getting too many of them done at all.
The cool air finally descended all the way down here. We haven't had 3 nights of freezing temperatures in years. A hard freeze takes out a lot of our sub-tropical and tropical plants that we love to garden with. If the freeze gets them, we usually just plant some more and enjoy them anyway. It really isn't bad at all. I see what other are going through in the really cold areas. So I'm thankful for the warm sunshine on a cool day like today.
And then there is Cody Puppy. Aren't new puppy Nanas as "bad" as new baby Nanas! Yes they are. He's a genius, has slept through the night after the first couple of days, sits, comes when you call him, gives a paw shake.... um... all for treats of course. Treats, that's a Nana thing for sure. He knows who gives him the treats. I'm totally taken by surprise at how really good he is for my overworked, sweet daughter. After long hours at work, when she sees this puppy, it just melts the stress away and puts a smile on her face. I kind of like him, too. Thankful for Cody.

So today instead of looking for a sofa or doing the hundreds of things that really do nee to be done on the house, I'm running around after the puppy, trying to finish some custom art work and writing an article that is really giving me writer's block. I have no idea why, but it's going to break through today, I can just feel it. Positive thinking!
