More Improvements In My House

Dear Diary:

As I talked about in my previous post, I've been trying to do a few (and relatively inexpensive) updates in my homes in both my lives.  Today I found a really cute coat rack item that fits perfectly by the door.

It's featured in this week's Hello Tuesday and is made by Newchurch.  The hall tree looks great in a hallway or in the foyer.  It's a super bargain as it comes in 4 versions for only 125L. You can add your own items in the bare version or use the added decor one.  It also comes in black with both renditions offered.  The cushion seat has different colour options with many poses available.  I thought it was a great deal.

Good Night for now.

Time To Update My House

Dear Diary:

When I got back from my mini vacation, I decided to do some updating on my house....maybe some new furniture, lighting or a splash of paint.  A quick fix was to change up some of the decorative things I had around my home.  

I found this table top aquarium that was hidden in the back of my junk room.  It was perfect on the coffee table but now I had to fill it.  That called for a trip to the store to find a suitable fish to add. 

I found a perfect little goldfish.

I like to have an aquarium in the house.  Watching the fish swim seems to have a calming effect.  Let's hope I can keep this fish alive!

Good Night for now.

Time For A Short Vacation

Dear Diary:

Well, I do have some time off and since the weather has been exceptionally warm, I decided I would sit by the pool and work on my tan.  Perhaps read a book or two if I get very ambitious.

See you in a couple of weeks.

Good Night for now.

Remembering Frida Kahlo

Dear Diary:

When I saw this dress, Frida Kahlo immediately came to mind.  Maybe it was because I had just seen an exhibit of her work; or maybe it was because this dress seemed to be her style.  This would be her 111th birthday and I thought it would a good time to credit her with many accomplishments.

Frida had many obstacles to overcome in her short life.  As a child, she had polio and even though she had a slight limp it didn't stop her from moving forward.  She excelled at school and was planning on going to medical school.  However, at 18, she was in a bus accident that gave her many medical problems filled with sever pain for the rest of her life.  While recovering, she took up art. She painted many self portraits, translating her pain and sadness on to canvas.  

Frida married Diego Rivera in 1929 but divorced in 1939 after a very tumultuous relationship. They married again in 1940 and divorced a second time in 1954.  It seemed for many years after she was still referred to as "Diego Rivera's wife" until her art was recognized by its own merit.

Her death at 47 years old came far too young.  Her poignant art brings people from all over to view her exhibitions.

Good Night for now.

Happy Birthday Canada!

Dear Diary:

Today, July 1st, Canada celebrates its 151st birthday.  I always get my friends together, in both my worlds, to help me observe this holiday.  They don't mind joining me at my home to help with the fireworks and to eat all my food.

From Sam, Chloe, Quincy and myself, Happy Canada Day.  Celebrate it anyway you can.

Good Night for now.
