My Door and More






Yesterday I was reading over at KariAnne's blog about her front door so this made me think of my front door what do people think when they see my front doors at this time of year, what does say about the type of person I am really I am not the one to answer this question it is for others to answer so her I am asking others what they think when they see my doors. You can find KariAnne here: http://www.thistlewoodfarms.com/what-does-your-front-door-say-about-you she is a very talented woman and her home looks so pretty and inviting.

While talking about Christmas ok I didn't mention the word Christmas in the last paragraph but anyway here are a couple of shots of my dining table covered in Christmas presents still have a couple to wrap but only a couple..............

I will be going out shopping with Kathy-Lee today when after her doctor’s appointment she still needs to get some things. I am happy to go with her, she doesn’t handle crowds and finds it a bit easier if she has someone with her and I do like to go shopping with my daughters.

  1. your doors are lovely. i don't mean to pick on you but have you ever thought about reading back what you type and putting in a full stop occasionally. sometimes it quite hard to read your blog when the first sentence is as long as a paragraph. just read it back before you post it. i hope you enjoy your christmas time.

    2. She is just writing like she is having a conversation. I don't find it hard to read her blog. Also, if I had a problem or concern I would use my real name and not hide with Anonymous.

  6. I do like your doors. You do a good job of getting everything ready for Christmas. I am woefully behind because of an extra busy schedule at work and my daughter's wedding next week. Ah well, there's always next year for me-

  7. Your doors look very nice. As for the criticism about your long sentences. I think that was unfair. You are typing a blog of your own style and you can "talk" any way you want to express yourself. I have NO trouble what-so-ever reading your posts. Unless anonymous is your creative writing professor, he/she need not critique.

    1. Thanks I do like to use the glass stickers on the slidding door and front windows, and yeah I do write as if I am having a chat to someone that's my style and sometimes I forget to use the full stop.

  8. You have a lovely door. Mine just has a simple wreath on it. We are moving and so we didn't do much decking the halls outsides this year. Just some lights on the bushes and a wreath.
