A peak inside, and some time alone.

It's Halloween night here at the lakehouse.

I'm home alone.

Hubby is at deer camp.

I'm loving the peace and quiet tonight.

No radio, no television....just me.

A whole week of...just me.

 That means: a clean bathroom for a week. A clean kitchen for a week. NO hunting shows for a week.
And the whole bed to myself for a week.  YES!!!!!!!!
Don't get me wrong...I will miss hubby, after a whole week. But in the meantime....I'll come home from work with no socks to pick up. No dishes on the coffee table, or in the sink. No supper to make. And NO hunting shows on the television!!!!
It only happens once a year....like Christmas.
Again...I love hubby, and will miss him....but think of the possibilities!!!  The upstairs bathroom for one! White paint!!!! heeehaaaa! I've been patiently waiting for this time to get here. That nasty old bathroom will be white! Finally! I will replace the black and tan checked shower curtain with a white one! White, and some light blue towels!  AND...a white rug!!!
Aren't you excited???!!!!
Okay...maybe not as much as me...but....you must understand just a little.

 Okay....now back to the post.
Do you ever wonder what people keep inside their cupboards?  Have you ever peaked inside someones medicine cabinet..or linen closet...or refrigerator...or behind a shower curtain?
I'm not saying I'd do that sort of thing...but don't you wonder?

 I have a cupboard with a screen door on it, and people always want to peak inside....and since I had to dust in there today...I thought I'd keep the door open for a minute or two, and let you see what's in there. Nothing all that interesting....but some treasures for me.

 My favorite gardening books. A couple of pictures...one of my Dad, who passed away three years ago. He's holding my granddaugther Maddie. She was born on Dad's birthday. A clay bumble bee that my grandson Ethan made for me. A little bird house another granddaughter, Zoey, gave me for Mother's Day.

 A favorite basket......a lamp made by a friend. Shells from our Florida vacation with the kids and grand kids.  Just "stuff" to  others. Treasures to me.

Treasures..that cannot be replaced.  Kind of like my hubby. Although I am happy that he's out in the woods, spending time with his oldest son..doing what they love to do(going to the bathroom in the woods wouldn't be something I would want to do)..anyway...having the house to myself for a whole, entire week......I will look forward to his return....safe and sound.
Until then.......where's that paint brush!
