They're the old fashioned kind that swing open, so it means clearing the plants off, opening the windows on each side, and then putting everything back.
It's one of my simple pleasures, and I'm sure I blogged about it last year. The problem is this year there's major remodeling going on to the house next door ~ which means extra noise and dust. So I'm stalling.
Here's a pic from last year
In the meantime I'm enjoying the morning light.
Some of my favorite pieces are perched on the window counter,
things I enjoy seeing every day.
Things that make me happy
like my Salvation Army girl with a penny in her tambourine
that has The Lord's Prayer engraved on it
Plants in pretty pots
an orchid gifted to me for my birthday
a flea market donkey
~ only $10 at the end of the day ~
[btw - there's an article in Romantic Country Home this month about
our local flea market. Named in the top 5 ~ and I can walk there!]
always a bird or two
And a spoon rack that belonged to my mother,
was almost given away, then retrieved
and pressed back into service
a vintage sugar and creamer turning purple
and if you look carefully between the flower pots.
sitting on the base of the old kitchen clock you'll find...
two tiny
meeces
frolicking in the hickory dickory dust

It's pretty quiet next door...
maybe today is the day I let Summer in (:
what'ya think?
Counting My Blessings
and so much more
