Monday's Issues...

Issue # 1...

This was an interesting weekend...a number of appliances continue to begin their decline...in spite of all of the chanting we have done to the refrigerator gods...the refrigerator still refuses to make ice and now the shelves are sort of falling apart...Den is off to buy a new one. And...the microwave is making weird popping scary noises...Den is off to buy a new one of these, too. And...the dishwasher detergent cup won't stay shut...so a new one of these is most likely in our future, too...sigh!

Issue # 2...

I bought the wrong Fitbit so Den is off to Tar-jay to return it because I already bought the right one...we both hate returns.

Issue # 3...

Our new leather furniture is making us crazy. Den freaks every time a cat jumps on it...he is keeping all of the blinds closed in the family room because of sun damage. I hate sitting in the family room. I used to love it. Roxie cries because she can't see out onto the deck and pond. So...over the weekend we moved all of the leather stuff into the living room...we ruffle slipcovered our old furniture...we slipcover it in the summer anyway...and moved it all back into the family room...which is now back to its happy place!

In the fall we will get new fabric family room furniture...I will then own 5 sofas!

It would have been 6 but we gave one away to Habitat For Humanity...sigh!

My happy family room with its old furniture which I still love!

Issue # 4...

Roxie is at the vet all day. She is allergic to her rabies vaccine so she is being pretreated and watched all day to make sure she is ok...there have been two rabid raccoons in our area so it is really necessary that she get this shot. One raccoon broke into a house nearby and attacked a cat and two dogs...they barely survived. We know this because our vet is the one who saved them. So sad...Roxie is so small and we are so close to all wildlife...I would worry every moment. Actually I do worry every moment!

This brings me to the end of my issues...for now...

Fun stuff!

I am joyfully reading this...and...it's summery and Nantucket-y and fun!

I found this amazing sort of Boho website over the weekend...filled with the kind of stuff I love!

I love shopping irresistible treasures! I love enjoying little things! I bought mugs and scarves and stickers! And a cool dress!

So...Lucy and I are the only ones at home while Den and Roxie are out and about. I think Lucy is enjoying some alone time. Or she doesn't realize Roxie is gone...

Hugs,

Patty
