looking out or in

It all waits beyond the window.  Did I ever mention this window?  It is an old vintage one I found at a yard sale I believe.  I really wanted two the same but that is tough to find.  Anyway, my son-in-law cut into the wall which separated my office space from the rest of the world.  I always felt very boxed in; and now I have a window to look out and it made it feel so much more open.  

I took this with my camera phone in the middle of tearing out the wall to fit the window.

My son enjoying my little space.

A little peek from the inside.  This is the space I use to do my artwork, graphic design work, and all things business.  No room in here to work my sewing machine, etc.  My workspaces are spread throughout the house unfortunately.  Someday I would love to have everything all in one room!!

But in the meantime it's good to make little adjustments to your home.  I love that we put this window in, and hope to put another on the adjacent wall.  That way the little boxed in room will have windows around part of it.  Using the vintage windows gave me the feel I was after by adding a more 1940's vintage vibe to the house.  I had a vision of office spaces in old buildings that had the paned windows separating the rooms instead of walls.  It was a cheap project and made me happy.

Dave and I ..or{Santa Claus or Kenny Rogers}, did a little budget work yesterday...and found out I was spending money more frivolously than him.  I mean I am paying close to $10 bucks for this blog every month and rarely use it.  I either need to get rid of it or maybe post like you are supposed to....whatever that may be.   When this photo was taken we were on our way to the hippie barter faire.  Whoa, I had forgotten how pot smoked filled it was; {which I didn't mind in my earlier years *wink}.  They are really promoting the " let marijuana be legal here in Washington. " I went there on a quest to find some wide legged hippy looking yoga pants....not to have pot blown in my face from people smoking blunts on every turn...ugh...sorry hippieland you are not my cup of tea anymore.  I just dig some of the clothing but not the shananigans that go with their lifestyle.

Yesterday I had a few moments to make myself a few pillows.  Sorry for the crapola pictures, but when the weather is gray; so are the photos.  It is simply dreary, and fall, and I love it!  

Today we will be busy shipping off orders, making new orders...I shall not see the light of day this whole week it looks like.  It's nice to have helpers stationed in the house with me while I have these orders to fill.  Did I mention my sweet little mama moved in with us?  She has her own cozy space at the other end of our house, kinda like a little studio apartment.  Her and her kitty cat are settling in nicely.  And I love having her here.  No more worrying about her safety and knowing that she isn't alone anymore.  Her dear sweet companion of 30+ years passed away in May, and finally she agreed to come live with us.  She shouldn't be alone at 86 in a big house by herself.  So now all is well!
