New Chairs Added To The TV Room

Two new chairs have been added to the back, south-facing room I call the TV room.

I found two blue chairs I really liked for a very good price (under $350 for two chairs and all wood), so I ordered them. They arrived last week, and Kendra assembled them.

And I put the beige mid-century chair in the guest room.

I arranged milk glass vases on a tray (Kasi got them down from the top of the kitchen cabinets for me). We went to lunch on Saturday, and then she did some tasks for me around here. Then, I added sprigs of greenery to the vases.

(Obviously, I can’t leave this little flower vignette here, as the kittens have already pounced on it once. I’ll have to put it up high somewhere.)

Adding Shelf Liner To A Wood Tray:

It’s a little hard to see here, but I added some of The Pioneer Woman’s shelf liner from Walmart to the bottom of the tray. That gave it a little color and sparkle, I thought.

I wanted to break up all the blue in this room with some additional colors, if only in a limited fashion.

I’ve had this shelf liner since before I moved here when I lived in the apartment. Finally, I am using it in a small way!

Do you like The Pioneer Woman’s colorful products at Walmart? There is a wide range of things they sell under her company name.

I already had these pillow covers and inserts, so I added them to the denim blue chairs already in here.

Four chairs are across from the other two, providing a good conversation area for four people.

A Sitting Area & TV Room:

I didn’t want a TV in my living room, which caused a little controversy with my family. I have a TV in my bedroom, and that’s where I watch TV.

I’ve enjoyed movies in there most every afternoon while I elevate and ice my knee. This also gives the nerve pain in my hands a chance to calm down.

Oh, what fun aging is, right?

Simon had to come to see what I was doing, if you can see him against the dark blue chair upholstery.

I have blackout curtains for this room that Greg will put up for me. They are gray to match the walls.

I love all the natural light. But Kendra told me before I rented this house from her that it gets hot in here, with two south-facing walls of windows, even with air conditioning.

I decided on gray because this is a small room with half the space and five windows. And I thought gray curtains with gray walls wouldn’t make the room feel any smaller than it actually is.

Ivy:

This is a photo of Ivy this morning. Now she is napping on my bed.

Simon is running from room to room like he’s possessed. Maybe he senses the “ghost lady with the strong perfume” I smell whenever I sit in this chair. Perhaps she is a permanent feature.

Maybe Mamie has lots of spirits floating around.

Daisy watched Simon running around for a while from her spot on the top level of the cat tower. But now she’s jumped down to join the fun.

Half the time, the kittens’ rambunctious activity sounds like tennis balls in a dryer here in this house. But I love it! Seeing so much life with the kittens is entertaining and joyful.

My internet went out while I was typing this, so I went through all the troubleshooting I could think of. I wasted a good 30 minutes doing this.

Then it turned out Simon had turned off the power and the electricity by my chair.

Stuff just happens here.

Surely, naptime is not far on the horizon.
