This week has been all about the spending.
The closing went off without a hitch - it was all the stuff leading up to it that caused stress! Hubby and I went directly from the title company to Torr Na Lochs and got a bottle of our favorite, Fion Dearg, to enjoy with our picnic lunch near the barn, on what is now our land.
And how great is it to have a winery so close to the new place?
As of the writing of this post, here is the backyard, still in the process of getting a new fence. For some reason it looks even smaller to me. And when it's all said and done, I will have quite a lot of work to do. Still reminding myself to take it one step at a time, but I am anxious to work in it.
Last summer I got some hand-me-down orthotic sandals from Orthaheel. I have loved them so much I bought another pair, in black this time. I think my days of wearing Okabashi's are over. I know it looks like my chubby feet are spilling out from these flip flops, but really, they are so comfy that I can wear them and stay on my feet for hours.
The Charlie Madison's lady has such beautiful stuff - I ordered this pretty one of ruby jade for a dear friend. I'm giving it to her with a box of notecards featuring Scout's work.
Bubbie is taking his sweetheart to the homecoming dance on Saturday and needed a dress shirt and tie. I ended up buying him two shirts, and two more for Hubby. I got some pretty good deals all around. The dance is tomorrow night and I still need to go get flowers!
Bubbie is quite the looker. When I showed this pic to my mother she said "where did he get those good looks?" When I replied "genetics", she merely asked me again - she was being a little tacky. It's no secret that my mother has her opinions. Regardless, he is one Handsome Devil.
