Just
in time for July, I finished sewing spiffy new covers for all the cushions and
pillows on our screened porch. My yard sale rocking chair got an
upgrade to match. I love that they can be easily removed for cleaning. I added new rugs to
complete the look.
Spending
hours on the porch reading, talking, and grilling was a wonderful way to
enjoy a summer week in our fresh new space. The weather fully
cooperated, with low humidity and temperatures ranging from 60's in
the morning to only low 80's in the afternoons. Not all down time for us, since we
caught up on some yard work as well.
Can
you believe we even opened windows to bring that cool air into the
house – in July? AMAZING!
My mama joined us on the 4th
for grilled burgers, chocolate pie and family time. What a pleasant,
quiet holiday for the three of us, relaxing on our porch.
Useful
Notion: Sometime you need to step outside, get some air, and remind
yourself of who you are, and who you want to be.
