The Case of the Missing Rooster
To prepare for Christmas decorating, like you, I remove certain decor and replace them with the Christmas stuff. Well so now, here it is, January 12th and although I normally have "taken down Christmas", I haven't done so entirely. The wreaths are still hanging on the outside of the house. Why? Because I love them!!
Meanwhile, when we got our snowstorm (8"), thank goodness we had arranged to have a local fellow plow both the gravel road. One thing we realized was that in all the years that the Pres plowed the shared road and each individual driveway (3 including ours), he wasn't charging what he should have been. However, the shoveling we did was minimal and shortly after the storm, the weather warmed and melted it all away.
This year, for whatever reason, I just love looking at this corner of the LR. It may have something to do with the black metal rocking horse. I gave him a fresh coat of paint. He's very old...like us.
Of course, personally I think Katniss all curled up in the chair makes the shot!!
Anyway, with the exception of the few things in the GR, everything else in the house is back to normal except for the fact that I cannot find my big green (patina) metal rooster. He belongs in the DR...has always been there...and now I have no idea where he is! So, one of these days, in between doctor's appointments and tests, I'll go through all the totes out in the garage in hopes of finding him.
