AN EASY SUMMER...

And The Livin' Is Easy...


This really has been an easy summer. 

 The weather, so far, has been very agreeable

 and time is slowly moving along.




We've moved some furniture around 

to make space for a larger area rug that is coming to the sitting room.  

My thought was to move the game table and chairs into the parlor. 

 The Captain did not agree at all and I had a few doubts myself, 

but we both think that we do like it.  

If it becomes a problem for the Christmas tree set up, then we will rethink it.  

We moved the two blue armchairs back into the sitting room 

until we can replace them with a couple of easy chairs.





This room, for me, has always been

 a hard nut to crack as far as decorating. 

 I am trying to push it a little more

 towards country prim. 

 More to come about this later.




It's funny how quickly

 some easy living can turn into torture.  

Have you ever noticed that?

  I will make a long story short. 

 I noticed some water on the library floor 

which after a quick clean up 

turned into more water on the library floor 

and on the guest bedroom floor as well. 

 It turned out our second bathroom 

which is situated between the two rooms 

sprung a leak in the pipe connected to the toilet

 and that water had to go somewhere.  

We called a plumber 

and he found other leaks under the Cottage. 

 It seems that our water pressure was too high

 and had blown through the pipes 

over a period of time. 

 That is just how our city water pressure is

 and I wish someone had told us 

that the installation of a pressure valve

 would have solved the problem. 

 But no one did and now we know. 

 After a good amount of money

 and some raised hardwood floors 

we are now all good.




Hope all is well with you

 and will see you next time.
