How was your week? Mine was pretty good. The one exception was showing up a day early for my hair appointment. I have two calendars - one on paper and one on my phone, and I still screwed it up. I played it cool, though, and told her my personal assistant was still in training.
As attentive as Miss Millie is, she really needs to be more detail-oriented.
Today I will spend a good part of the day going up and down the stairs. I am changing out my winter clothes for my lighter ones. They better not have shrunk like last year! Many people worry about moths - my nemesis is closet shrinkage.
Are you hosting thiS weekend? We are going to have a quiet Easter. Our newlyweds are in NYC, so my #2 and Chowdah will be our only guests.

I have been corresponding with Jenny, who has been a reader of my blog since the beginning of time. She wrote me a note recently that she had some pieces reupholstered, and I asked her to send me pics. Jenny's beautiful home is in Davidson, NC. She was nice enough to let me share them with you.
Jennifer was my inspo for my navy/white club chairs.
Thanks so much, Jenny! It is absolutely stunning! If you would like to see Jenny's Christmas tour that she did for my blog, click

Do you follow Mary Orton on Instagram? Sista turned me on to her. She is an absolute hoot! In one of her stories, she teaches her darling little girls colors by using her designer shoes. Love her wit and sarcasm. You can find her
here.
Whether you will be celebrating Easter or Passover, I wish you a wonderful weekend.
Jenny's furbaby, Sully

Thanks for the Mary Orton recommendation. I followed her immediately. And I love anything Aaron Sorkin does. Happy Easter, Katie!

Jenny has such a fabulous home!! I just spent a few hours yesterday morning packing away my thickest winter gear and pulling out some of my more spring-like clothes. I still have a few bins of lighter summer weight stuff that I can't wait to add to my closet but I know it's still too soon to do that here.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter! I can't wait to dive into these house links. Jenny's reupholstering looks fabulous for that Lake Norman area! The Last of Us.....great show, but I cheated and read a spoiler for next season. It's not good, if they follow the game on which it's based, js.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter. Happy Passover.
ReplyDeleteRegarding flight travel habits
I’m a flight attendant and I’ll report right now the single most in air complaint I get is media noise from a fellow passenger not using ear buds etc.
noise pollution from cell phone conversations, movies, music
It’s gotten to where we make announcements concerning using personal media w/o ear buds. Pax get pretty fired up
Hi Katie - It's Gray. This time it wanted to know the name of my Blogger blog. I will just stay anonymous.
ReplyDeleteI love Mary, but just went down a rabbit hole and watched her last 398,573,892 posts. Don't you love that home on Block Island?? We have a place up there and I've been stalking it for the last few years...
And thanks for the 20% off B&B heads up! I bought a set of sheets - loved them and am now needing more.....
Ahhh... the purses. Always a fun and interesting visit, Katie. Have a blessed Easter!
