    I would love a lot LESS on our walls- husband has covered the walls in the bedroom, his room and the hall with pictures/prints- not all the same style at all. Some are nature prints, some are memoribilia (sp?), some sci-fi, . I do have one wall in the hall that is full that I did- all family pictures. I have prints I bought on the last cruise but they are still in the roll, not framed, because there is no where to put them.
    In our living room, there is a very large print, only one on that wall, that is the same one that was on Star Trek, in Picard's ready room. A friend of one of dh's close friends is the artist so we got a copy of it signed by Andy(we have two different ones of his that are signed). I am not a huge fan of it but that is the only wall big enough to put that print so that is where it is.

    At one point we had lots of Oregon Jazz festival prints. One was a piano in a lake up by Mt Hood. It was put on a barge, then they lowered the barge a couple inches. Then of course had to wait until the lake was still. Over the years they kind of faded back into a closet. We used to have some Asian artist block prints. Those got sold over the years. Do I have regrets? You betcha! But I have to realize at different parts of our lives we were interested in things, and it ran its course. We used to have a lot of Renn Faire pictures, and Celtic wheat grass weaves. Right now, we just have our historical Seaside Oregon photos up. Then our usual Navy things. Navy pics are our one constant. And Lee's world map of all the ports he's been to, (with how many times he's been to them on the little flags. He painted the stick pins.... Yes he had a lot of time on his hands after he retired from the Navy. 🙃😁Well until he started working again. He was only 37 when he retired so a lot more adventures to go on. We are Sci fi fans too! We have GIJoes posed throughout our home. Reading the newspaper, smoking a pipe.... One took a header off the bookshelf the other day. I could get his cap back on, but had no idea how to get him to hold his weapon! It must be a guy thing.... Let your husband have his walls. If it makes him happy to look at them, than its a good thing.💖

    someone saw pictures of dh's room and asked what toy store it was!
    I am very glad he changed the door cling into the master bath. It used to be Captain Kirk. It was a little more than life size- not really what I wanted to wake up and see. Now it is pretty Japanese cherry blossoms. The door to son's room has a path and bridge and the one from the kitchen to the garage has a castle with a walkway to it. Spiderman used to be on dh's room door but it was one of the cheaper clings that was vinyl and the cats tore it up. The new ones are a lot thicker/better made.

    How cool! My sons den area has a half wall, so to be more separate, he put up 2 screens. I think his "entry" looks like the front entrance to a Japanese restaurant. I need to buy a Japanese smiling cat statue to put by my hope chest/ bench seat.😁👍

    @KetoneKaren , Karen VA -
    Never heard of Calmoseptine before, but it looks like it could be quite helpful - I've tried everything from Desitin to Vicks Vaporub, so one more won't kill me.

    we have "lucky cats" all around the house. Also have banners that look like the ones in a Japanese restaurant above the kitchen windows and have the tapestry type with the wave and rising sun going into the kitchen(it is a wide opening). We also have the happy cat banners around- got them at Daiso

    Minicooper — Your photo looks like you are sailing a on a beautiful day & lovely sea. Wow! (I envy you.) :bigsmile:

    Allie — I have already had to start over knitting my blanket. I’m making progress. I need to finish in September or October. Hopefully I will be done well ahead of those months. :smiley:

    Debbie - Cantaloupe is a treat. :flowerforyou:

    Tina – I am making slow progress with my knitting. I’ve already started over and I’m making slow progress. The baby is due in October, so I still have a good amount of time to get it done. :star:

    Kylia – We have a moderate head and foot board that was our old waterbed frame, and drawers under both sides of the bed. Regular mattress now. Lots of old mementos in those drawers. :smiley:

    Flea – You are a good daughter. Letting your mom know that it is okay to take it easy when she needs rest is a kindness. :heart:

    Heather — My dad would have loved to share your meal. He loved sausage & sauerkraut. Both my parents liked sauerkraut and cabbage. :star:

    Rebecca – I grew up with shotguns. My dad used to take me pheasant hunting when I was a young girl. He shot the pheasants and I was the retriever. Later in life I inherited all of his hunting guns. My son has them now. They are safe with him. :star:

    Did Kelly Coffee Meyers 30 Minutes to Fitness DVD then went for my walk. The plan for tomorrow is to do a Body Sculpt Upper Body and Waist DVD.

    Lisa – I hope that new medication works for you. Kudos finding a silver lining...no matter how small it may be

    On my walk today I ran just a little since a car was coming out of a driveway. I did find that if I were to run, I really need a sports bar. As it is, I just walk fast.

    Another good book about ageing parents: Women Rowing North. It is about a couple and their friends and how their lives are impacted by their ageing.

    Went and got my oil changed in my car. I really should have gone to this other place because an oil change doesn’t take that long and this place is right next to Aldi so I could have gotten shopping done. Guess I’ll just do it tomorrow.

    After the dentist today went to Food Lion because Vince needed milk. Saw this one gal that I liked. She was talking to another gal who I remember from the Dollar store. I gave them my FL shirt. The only other thing would be for it to go to the Salvation Army. Someone might as well use it.

    Went to ceramics tonight. Snow White is almost done.

    Headboards - I don't miss them! I like to prop myself up and read in bed and headboards often get in the way, especially if they are at all ornate.

    And if they're padded and plush, they're dust collectors, which I don't need.

    Our sleeping pod is functional and not on display. So it's not "pretty" but it is comfy. :)

    Rori—I watched the Olympics for a while today. I got busy working on a baby blanket for our unborn grandson & I lost interest in the competitions. I got some good knitting done. There is much left to do. :smiley::heart:

    Last training run before my event this coming weekend. I was working on a bit of speed. I am not fast, but I'd like to get back to where I was 2 or 3 years ago by the time my January event rolls around.

    On beds and bedrooms:
    When DH passed, I took down the framed photos of New Mexico, and replaced with a few of him. They include one of him surfing in Hawaii, so I replaced the bedspread to mirror the colors of ocean, sand and seafoam in that photo. I hung crystals in the east facing window so I have 'rainbows' on the ceiling and walls every morning. Also put my collection of orchids by the bay windows, and the only other piece of furniture is a bookcase tucked well into a niche. The whole effect is calm and spa-like. It's now my favorite room in the house.

    My brother, age 61 lives with me. His end stage liver disease is robbing him of any quality of life. He had endoscopy yesterday, and now has to be on a bland soft food diet for 10 days. He was already depressed, and this isn't helping. He stays in bed about 80% of the time and I bring him whatever he wants to eat. Lately, it's been fruit popsicles. Until he transitions to a nursing home, hospice or heaven, I will do whatever it takes to keep him comfortable. The freezer is stocked with about 5 different flavors of popsicles.

    Meanwhile, I'm trying to build a life of my own. My few friends here have been taking me to lunch and introducing me to other single senior women. It's been fun to go out and have conversations about our rich experiences and our current bucket list items. Seems there are a lot of ladies in my area looking for travel partners, and I'd be game once I have more time.

    Is anyone else glued to the Olympics? I love them all, but especially the swimmers and water polo players. The stories and pictures of their families back home cheering from long distance puts a lump in my throat.

    Stay well. We can do this.

    I'm glad you're making connections and building a life of your own. :) But sad about your brother. :(

    Yes ... I'm watching the Olympics when I can ... especially Australia in the pool!! :grin:

    Rori - So glad to hear you are getting out and about and making new friends. I have made lots of acquaintances since I've been in Hove, but the pandemic made getting to know new people a bit difficult. I haven't any real, deep, friends here, but we have the family closeby and I never feel lonely because of technology. I see Gwendolen every so often and have had weekend visitors twice recently. Life is full, but I would like a good local friend. I have found, in the past, that making that first overture is quite scary, almost like a first date!! :p I think I will know, when I see someone, if they are the right person. <3
    That has reminded me to ring my old yoga friend. I remember how nervous I was when I first asked her in for coffee! :D
    I love close girlfriends. One of the great pleasures of my life. A good 'one to one' chat is the best thing ever.

    This afternoon our singing group is getting together in person for the first time since the pandemic. I am going to take an Uber up to the venue, which has moved out central Hove. :# Maybe I'll get a lift back, or the bus. DH is staying at home, but I would like to say hello to all the faces I have seen on Zoom over all these months! We will resume Zooming after this week.

    Going to go for a run after breakfast.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Rori love your bedroom, the colors, the crystals, the rainbows. ((hugs))

    Bedroom: Our queen mattress and box springs sit on the floor so our Skye Terrier can jump off without hurting her shoulders. I have a 3 drawer dresser for clothes, a small 3 pine dresser for linens, Joe has a night stand, a big 5 drawer dresser for clothes, a huge 6 drawer dresser full of DVDs. Also crowding in is our “dolly couch” a whorehouse sofa/chaise lounge from Sally Standford’s Pine Street house, Shadow’s giant crate, a TV we don’t watch on top of Joe’s dressers, five plats and a grow light on the windowsill. The walls are the same 80’s imitation wood paneling as in the living/dining room. I hate it, Joe loves it. I’m lazy. There is stays. Neither of us has much trouble falling asleep ;)

    Too sleepy for more… ;)

    Lighter, lovelies!

    Tracey – I was never told that I couldn’t have my money, only that temporarily it would be used to pay bills. But I would be getting the money. Really wish I had someone who would cut my bangs for me. A while ago friends of mine from high school came to visit. They saw a picture of Jess and said “that’s definitely you”. We definitely look very similar, only she has brown eyes where I have blue eyes. Headboards I really don’t have a problem with. Now footboards...that’s another story. We have one on one of the beds at the condo. Thank goodness I only have to make that bed up a few times a year. What a pain!

    Barbie – the other day one of my neighbors mentioned a dog belonging to another neighbor, that she hadn’t seen the dog and since it was elderly she wondered if it had to be put down. The next day I saw the owner walking the dog. I’m thinking that since the dog is pretty old, it may be having trouble with the heat and so his owner only walks him during the morning. The blacktop has had a chance to get warm during the day so she doesn’t take the dog out at night. This morning as I was walking down one street, I saw the dog out. When I came back (maybe 10 minutes later) the dog was inside. That’s what leads me to think the heat may be bothering it.

    Rori – there’s a special place in heaven for you. Your room sounds so wonderful, especially the crystals.

    Can’t seem to get to sleep. Going to try again now.

    Hi folks. I’m a couple of days behind so some of these comments might be out of date.
    Welcome to all the new people. I hope you enjoy being a member of this group group.

    Heather -
    It sounds like you will have a wonderful time with grandchildren and your friend Gwendoline. Sorry to hear about your niece and her boyfriend. Hopefully they will only have a very mild case.
    Penny -
    What a great adventure. It’s wonderful that you can get to see your family in such exciting circumstances. Enjoy your cruising.
    Machka-
    Bravo for losing the weight. Hopefully it will continue to drop if that’s what you want it to do.
    Tracey-
    😍 You’re a new craft room. May you enjoy it for many years to come. That looks like a wonderful idea you have with your family especially the Snowbirds.
    Julie -
    So sorry to hear about your sister. It’s difficult when you live in another country especially in these times.
