Got a special request for some more pics and so here you go. Excuse the poor formatting, I am trying to work with Trouble on my lap, when I am in the office on the computer she won’t stay off my lap, don’t understand it, very fickle, any other time she will only sit within about 5 feet of me but not on me. If I am in the office but not sitting, she will hang out in “her chair”. Its like she is jealous of the computer and is saying… Bet your computer doesn’t fit in your lap as well as I do. She gets really pissy when I start to type so she starts digging nails into my legs. Darn cats.
And in honor of the little trouble maker… here she is laying in her chair…
This is the back of the house after a snow storm a few weeks ago. Note the isolation. Love it. In order to look in my back windows you have to be in my yard and within rifle range. 🙂 It is nice because all around the house, no way to look in from the neighbors places really. I always hated that about my old houses. You walk around and look out a window and there is a neighbor looking at you. I am sure my old neighbors all have good stories of shows I put on for them LOL.
This is the view out my kitchen doorwall.
And another.
This is the view from the street. I think we had 12 inches of snow dumped on us for that storm. This is after it had already started melting. Anyway, I don’t care how good your eyes are, you aren’t looking in those windows and seeing anything. Especially since one room is the utility room, one room is Trouble’s room, and one is the den with bookshelves.
View out my front windows. Again, love the isolation and easy downrange rifle shot. 😉
This is a Christmas tree my neighbor Bob hangs from a Fire Engine Ladder Truck. It is lit with lights at night too. You can see it all the way down our street. Its nice to drive down your street and see it and start smiling. You don’t see that kind of fun in subdivisions where you pay dues and have to listen to arbitrary decorating rules, etc…
The street, it looked pretty cool but note how well plowed. Amazing, my streets in the city never looked this good even weeks after a snow storm and this was the next morning.
This is the tile work outside my office. Not a final pic, it still needed polishing.
And the bedroom set. Note that Trouble has to be right there thinking she is part of the solution… I tell her all the time… honey, you aren’t the solution and if you don’t stop extending your claws into my sheets you are quickly going to become a problem. I don’t think she gets it though.
And bedroom dresser. That picture is now hung up, not sure if it will stay or I will put a flat panel up. Not sure if I really want a TV in the bedroom in this house.
And I have to end with Trouble or else I will get claws in my thighs and I don’t need that from her.
Your house gets better and better each time you post a picture of it. I hope you’re able to appreciate what you’ve done as I know that when I’m actively involved in something, I sometimes get stuck inside the box rather than taking a step back and looking at what I’m doing and thinking ‘Wow’
Thanks Iain. I appreciate what I have every single day and it always causes me to smile. 🙂
First thing in the morning nearly every single morning I walk around the house looking out the windows thinking how lucky I am to have what I have. I love the views, just wish I had more and bigger windows.
