The mice will play! Husband is leaving for a week today. It's just a mighty good thing we're in this little apartment (hopefully not much longer.) Otherwise, there would be some changes around here! The bamboo tv wardrobe would be painted a stunning color, such as this yellow one. I'm quite Anti-Flat-Screen-TV-Above-One's-Fireplace (even if it's framed.) I like my tv where it can be closed off, although recently the kidoodles have been closing themselves inside while watching Johnny Test (which they aren't supposed to watch), so nobody knew the tv was even on. It was very quiet in the house for a week, though, until Husband lost the remote and found it in the wardrobe with two giggling children.
I also might do something to the stairs without proper supervision. It's a good thing we have plain stairs that are rented. Man, would I be in trouble if Husband came home to this. That's it for today. I'm off to take some photos for a fellow knitter and work on a new knitting design. If anyone has Netflix streaming suggestions I really love them. I've been watching "Burn Notice" and "Desperate Housewives"which by season 3 is getting tedious. I've watched "Dexter", "Downton Abbey" but that CSI stuff is too creepy for me. Finished "Mad Men" but couldn't get into "Arrested Development." Send your suggestions - please! Watching good shows makes me knit faster.

I like "Better off Ted" but it is kind of goofy.

Burn Notice and Arrested Development are my go to's. I actually might have my very first celebrity crush on Jeffrey Donovan/Michael Weston. I'd take either of them. I couldn't get into Mad Men (loved the costumes, hated the characters and the story) and Downton Abbey is still on the fence. Or falling off the fence. Same problem as MM, nice costumes and scenery, very not lovely people. Happy Knitting! Or painting, you know, whichever happens to come out in pretty pink stripes ;)

I would very much like to see what you'd do with your stairs and wardrobe! I love these pretty colors.

Hey Marie - Goofy is good. Husband loves the Irish show "Father Ted." Goofy doesn't begin to describe it.
And Pinksuedshoe- I agree about Michael Weston. I think that's why I watch it, haha!

Gotta big ol' list for you Pinka:
New Waterford Girl (I personally guarantee you will love this film!),
In Plain Sight,
George Gently,
Doc Martin (and I'd like the doctor opinion if do watch),
Demob,
Kingdom (kind of funny and excellent East Anglia landscape),
and (my all time fave) The Last Detective.
PS you can also torture yourself with every episode of All Creatures...excellent for mindless repetition.
XX,
