New Car!

Dave's 2008 Chevy Malibu finally seemed to be on its last leg, and neither of us were that sad to see it go, given the repairs it had required.

                                              Good bye, Malibu.  Thanks for your service!



We decided that since there were year end incentives, we might get our first actually NEW car.
We chose a 2017 Hyundai Accent Hatchback.  We got the Sport version, which has some cool features, while still being a pretty simple, practical car.

          Hello, Hyundai!

Blue Living Room

                                           I painted one wall a soft blue and made a few pillows.

                                        I hemmed a blue curtain I had made previously, and painted the lower portion of the dining room white.  The over all affect is a blue living and dining room.  I'm enjoying the change after many years of green.

                                          I have a little darker, mid-blue in the library.

                                          I replaced the green in the hall with white, too, so it's blues and creams in this section of the house.

For fall I also made a few new pillows for the family room, and brought back in the orange colors that are reflected outside with the leaves that have changed color.
