Unfinished projects at the log cabin



Is it just me, or is Autumn going by quickly? I didn't make it to the cabin last week due to the flu. (Now why did I get that painful flu shot at work? Hmph!!) But this week we will be headed up there as Greg and I will be celebrating our 5-year wedding anniversary! Hope there is still some fall colors left when we get there!

I was thinking about all the projects we didn't complete this summer, putting stone on the outside basement wall, putting in the walk out patio, having a party with my reclusive neighbors, etc. Oh well, there's always next year! Winter is coming and I must break out my wine collection! Cheers!

Sorry about the flu..Maybe we should all start making a list of what we didn't get done...NOT...sounds too depressing (o: We live life and we do what we can. There is always tomorrow.

So sorry about the flu, Shelley! I'm pretty sure Joy had it this past week with a fever of 105!

You will appreciate the cabin all the more this weekend after missing a weekend! I would have to think that every season is beautiful in your cabin! :)

Blessings,
Tammy

Ha! We just went to the wineries today! Bought 5 bottles.
Our leaves are just hitting "peak".
I never get the flu shot and I never get the flu, knock knock.

Happy Anniversary, Shelley.... I know you will find a GREAT way to celebrate......

I saw Scout ---or one who looks just like her--- when we were on our trip this past week.... What a gorgeous dog, and OH so big....

Kind of makes me think of the saying "the hurrier I go, the behinder I get."

Hope you're feeling better soon.

Glad you're feeling better and going to the cabin! And...Happy Anniversary!!

I know...there's always something that needs to be done...it never ends. I have many projects that need doing - but believe me, when I finally do get to them, they'll still be there!! LOL!!!

Take care and Enjoy your wine!!

What a bummer that you came down with the flu even after getting your flu shot! Your cabin looks so pretty...I'm sure the fall colors will still be there for you to enjoy.

Just a little something from Judy said...

Sorry you had to deal with the flu. I hope by now you are feeling much better. I agree with you in that I cannot believe how quickly time goes and my favorite time of the year is almost over. I am sure your neighbors would love to sit and talk to the lady who waves to them from her porch. Maybe next year:)

I feel the same way, like life is just zipping by. So much that we all want to do and so little time. We were so excited when we got your Halloween card in the mail yesterday :>) My hubby got such a kick out of it. He been telling everyone that his little diva is getting mail now. Thank you so much!!! It will be in my next post.

Putting stone on those walls will give you one beautifully finished home. Trust me on this. Ours was finished this summer. And, as you can see here, it came out great! (Corning's faux stone products are the best!)

There is always next year for the outstanding jobs. There is always something to do :)
