So we’re still in the process of remodeling our 2nd living room. In our previous photos you can see (through the new french doors) my neighbor’s metal barn… which also happens to serve as a kind of courtyard wall. While we’ve always loved it, we decided to paint on it over the weekend. We will work on distressing the paint this weekend to give it an older feel…but I love it. Luckily we painted it near the end so if we need to paint more…we have the room, like a tattoo. I also think a short row of corn and sunflowers planted along to the wall might be a great idea.

I guess we could’ve done some actual construction work….but is H-O-T.

…and the livin’ is easy
Fish are jumpin’ and the cotton is fine

Okay, maybe not around this house. We’ve been remodeling our second living room this summer. We have left this room totally empty since we moved in and decided to save the work the hottest months, or more likey, it’s when we had the cabbage to do it. We’ve done alot but we have decided to wait until it cools off a bit more to resume. Look at how hot it it this week…we have not seen a day below 100 for over two weeks.
