Well, NC has been catapulted into summer with record breaking high temperatures. Saturday, the record high was broken reaching 103 degrees to set a new record.

So you might think that we had cabin fever all weekend long. NO WAY! It was project central at our house. Charles installed track lighting in the kitchen last weekend. Then this weekend, Bob Villa, I mean, Charles installed under the cabinet lighting with a touch dimmer for an extra special touch and to add more task lighting.


My flea market finds are now installed.

Charles moved a glass shelf from one wall to the downstairs bathroom for a more finished look. Also noticed the most recent picture of Izzy.

Last but not least, my finest work, and my pride and joy... my memory wall/framing project came to 99% completion. After attending the framing class at Pottery Barn, I was armed with the knowledge and know how to complete my wall. Winning a black lacquered picture frame in the raffle also inspired me too! After a few tweaks, I am just about there. A need a picture for one of the frames and fill the spot over the wedding invitation is also a must. (following the odd/multiples rule) I am thinking a plate, a star or something metal. Any other ideas?

Friday night, we attended a Durham Bulls baseball game until the 4 inning with our neighborhood friends. We decided going to dinner in the AC was better than sweating outside at a baseball game.
