| Not an ABUNDANCE of Thanksgiving Decorating has taken place around the 'Chateau', as my 'hoardes' are rather limited for this occasion! Yes, I'll give you all a minute, as I'm sure you have all fainted at the thought that MY 'hoardes' were lacking in ANY department!! |

| I guess that it is one Holiday that has always slid in/slid out so quickly, that it is hard to go Over-the-Top about! I did have an old work buddy and her new baby coming to visit on Thursday though, so I figured if decorating was going to happen, it should be N.O.W.!!! |

| Is it just me, or after company has left... does anybody else out there feel at a loss? The house is clean. The fridge is stocked. Baking done. ...and here I sit. Ten a.m. By myself. NOW WHAT???
Decide that I can look at the Summer 'Garbage Picked' Costco step-stool in the 'someday' cueing line on the back porch NO LONGER (after all, Winter Snow will be here SOON)!!

| It had GREAT bones, just needed cleaning (somebody had used it for a LOT of painting!!), some tightening of it's bolts, polishing of the chrome, and, OH what to do with the seat?!! |

| While I had A.L.L. the stuff out... there were these two stools that we had bought while out saling s-e-v-e-r-a-l years ago... (and I quote) "Oh, those will be easy to recover!" I always forget, it isn't a 'difficulty' thing, it's a 'motivation' thing!! (we have been using these inside - they have NOT been on the back porch!!) |

| Off to the Attic studio to dig out those two big boxes of fabric that I had been packratting away... (You know I much prefer being called a 'Packrat' to a 'Hoarder'..., don't really know why, just sayin'...) |

| Foam - check! I picked out six fabrics that would be do-able and gave J the final picks during his lunch break. Fabric - check! |

Your chairs all look great! You did a good job. I have been hoarding a bunch of old white frames that have been in the way forever. This week, I finally hung them up one inside the other in a row and now they are out of the way and they look good. The HUSBAND even noticed them. He's been known to not notice the Christmas tree is up. :) Anyway, it's nice to finish up a project!
My garage is full of projects, most of them meant for my husband who is never too thrilled when I drag home another one. Especially when it's a big piece of furniture to refinish, something I should do but hey, what are husbands for anyway (lol). I think your decorating is great--I haven't done diddlysquat at the house but my room at the antique mall is over-the-top Fall! And "packrat" is a cute term--"hoarder" is now an official disease thanks to reality TV.
