There are so many reasons to smile on this humid mid-summer night in late July that I could make a TOP 5 list, but I shall refrain from the temptation.
Reason 1: Marshall got a raise today. I'm so very happy for him. He deserves it after all the extra work he's had to do since the storm whose name we shall not utter.
Reason 2: I would like to direct your attention to the two bookcases above. The one on the left is the before bookcase. Please take notice of the one on the right. I painted that one. I lightly accessorized it. I finally finished it. I'm exhausted!
I couldn't be on Trading Spaces While You Were Out Sell This House kinda shows. 48 hours worth of painting and sanding and painting some more. There's a reason my hands are soft is all I have to say! LOL
Reason 3: I recently rented two movies that are not necessarily "Hollywood" in style, but have high entertainment value...Junebug and 8 Women (Huit Femmes)
Junebug is a story of a southern family with plenty of feelings simmering just beneath the suface. It never makes southerners look uneducated. If you've ever been in a rural area that's not quite farmland, you'll see those images on the screen.
8 Women is a French movie simmering with intrigue and sensuality, and somewhat musical to boot! "Mon Amour, Mon Ami" is my favorite song in the soundtrack. Enjoy!

Oh my goodness...you saw it!?
wasn't it delightful?
Nice work on the book case by the way. I'm in the middle of trying to paint a dresser for my mother right now, in this horrible heat.
Go on, Carlos, Top Five. Do it! I want to see two more reasons that you're happy. :D
The bookcase looks GREAT! Nice color.
Jason, Thanks! I painted my bookcase and a bench last week out on my balcony during the morning hours, so I missed the heat for the most part. It was still hot though.
8 Femmes was absolutely delightful! I love the song, "Mon Amour,Mon Ami". I almost wanted to get up and dance with the two girls. LOL
