The living room


This is the living room as we moved in. Even though it was the end of September, temperatures were still near the 100 degree mark, so most everything came into this room to be sorted later when the air was on.

This is the dining corner of the living room. Check out the amazing beams! They run into the kitchen, family room, and the add-on; all exposed. Plus the wall of windows. Only drawback there is that they are only single-paned, and as we just found out, when glass is that low it has to be tempered. It's going to be pricey to replace, but probably worth the cost in energy savings.

And this is what couple of coats of paint will do to a room.
From the entryway...
The fake Rothko painting is one my mum did for us. We call it a Rhonko, because her name is Rhonda.
And lastly the dining area...Just needs something up on the walls. The mirror used to be there but it had other ideas about that. Luckily it didn't break the glass, just put a hole in my side table, hence the vase grouping. They cover the hole and no one knows. Until I show them...which I tend to do...maybe I should stop that?
