TRINA HOLDEN

Yesterday Jeremy worked on my Honey-Do list on his lunch break, since he will be gone most of the weekend at the ski program.


Jesse was his willing helper and ran to get his drill as soon as he saw what Daddy was up to.

Jesse imitated everything Daddy did, including holding a screw between his lips. 🙂

Together they installed two rows of hooks in the hallway – one for Daddy and Mommy’s coats, and one for Jesse’s. Hooray! Now the Boy can hang his own coat up, and we don’t have to have coats lying around on all the furniture all winter! It’s Beautiful – Thanks, Honey!

(The first picture was taken on my camera – the rest on Jeremy’s. His camera is sooo cool! That’s my newest Emmeline apron hanging on the new hooks. This one is for ME! :))

Here’s what I’ve been busy with this week…

You didn’t recognize it – did you? My living room never looked so good! 🙂 I finally got my curtains hung – after two years of having a clothesline strung around the room…I made the curtains and recovered one of the office chairs which was an awful turquoise!


My favorite spot in the room – an arrangement of keepsakes, including an impressionist oil painting by an old friend of my grandfather. It depicts a coastal view in Corsica, but it reflects our own view of the Finger Lakes out the front window. It was my inspiration for the color theme in the living room.


the reading corner – I got the chair for $10 this summer at a garage sale, intending to save it for our next (bigger) house. However, I loved it so much, I squished it in between my bookshelves.
The stacking boxes hold most of my collection of journals (numbering over 60 and counting), which otherwise looked kind of messy on the shelves with all their spiral bindings. The boxes were a birthday present from my dear Laney – look how well they match the color scheme!


Here’s where I am sitting right now – don’t you just feel like you’ve come for a visit? 🙂 Come back any time! 🙂

    Looks nice. I love that dusky purple color. BTW, if you get tired of your PapaSan chair (gets in the way, etc) I wouldn't mind giving it a good home 😀

    Beautiful! I could never fill all those journals! Do you have 2 monitors hooked up to your computer? I've always wanted that! Right now I would just settle for a flat screen 🙂

    bravo job!

    Ditto on the colors, everything is so coordinated! I did not even know you could recover those office chairs, we have one turquoise as well!

    Oops – forgot to mention that your room looks wonderful. I spent a week in a home once where they had one of those papa-san chairs. I loved napping in it and always wanted one myself. It will be great for nursing babies!

    I didn't realize you were in the Finger Lakes – a beautiful area. We spent a week camping in the Adirondacks in Sept. and drove home to Ohio thru your region.
