Never judge a book by it's cover..........

 and all that, right?

We were in a high end plastic surgeon's office on Monday.  No, we're not getting plastic surgery 🤣 This guy does regular surgery as well.  Super nice guy by the way.

Anyway, I had never been before but went with hubby this time, as two set's of ears are better than one I find when you're getting older....just saying!!  While we were sat in his office waiting for him we saw these pictures on the wall.

We were laughing at the one on the left; saying how even I could paint something like that and goodness knows how much he paid for it!!

I finally decided to take a closer look:

Turns out it's wrapping paper covering a frame of some sort.

I know when we used to go to the art show/auction for charity there were a number of things that honestly I thought were done by a child.  People were going mad over them, while hubby and I hated them.  So we figured this blue "painting" was one of those!!!

What suits one doesn't suit another I guess.

Oldie, but a goodie.........

Sunday was one of those laid back days, where despite the sun shining most of the day, we had snow showers and freezing cold temperatures mixed in.  So I decided it was a good day to watch a movie in the afternoon and this one popped up when I was scrolling through Netflix:


I have seen this movie before, and it's one of those movies that feels like a warm hug.  Nothing over dramatic, and it makes you feel warm inside.

Bit like a Bridget Jones Movie, Pretty Woman or The Full Monty.

Do you have a movie you like to watch over and over?

What that's it?

 I hope not!!

(First of the daffodils flowering)

Friday was a glorious day.  I spent most of the morning in the basement, stripping down the basement windows and washing everything.  Not sure when washing three windows became a tiring job, but it was!!  I was pooped afterwards.  However I did go outside and did some tidying up on the front porch and in the garden as it's yard waste week, and honestly it was so nice outside, I just wanted to feel a bit of sunshine on my face.

Fast forward to Saturday and it poured down, I mean really poured down.  Perfect weather for ducks but that's about it!  I hope that the one day of nice weather isn't it, before the summer heat hits.......just saying!!  Spring is a bit of a one day it's here, and then the next day it's gone situation!!

Do you clean windows at your home?  Or do you get a service in to do them?  I clean ours though not every other week, like I was taught to do while living in the UK.

All done........

The painting that is in the basement.  It took less than a gallon for the walls, as I only had to do one coat.  So I have three gallons of paint left.  I will use some on the spare bedroom downstairs and a walk in closet.  I plan on decorating those in July/August when it's too hot outside in the garden.

I am pleased with the results.  So now I am going to put it all back together.  I will say it has tired me out. It was a lot of work, but I am glad to have it all done before the gardening season starts.

I honestly don't know what to think anymore................

Not content in starting a war with Iran, now a certain person has done a post criticizing the Pope and portraying himself as Jesus ?????????

Are people around him not advising him on all these matters?  Or is he just a wild card doing what he wants, when he wants?

He is giving me something not right in his head vibes?  I mean who sets out to cause chaos in the world; with no regard for others?



I just don't know what to think?  I for one am fed up of it all.............

Little House on the Prairie......Netflix Trailer

 It still seems odd seeing other actors portraying the characters............


"They left everything they knew for a new life on the prairie. Meet the Ingalls family as they discover what “home” really means. Little House on the Prairie, based on the beloved books, premieres July 9, only on Netflix."

Never judge a book by it's cover..........
