It feels like November here, and autumn arrived a month early. It's funny, when I returned in August, I thought it felt like September. For that I am grateful!!! Even though there were more warm days over 100, we had few over 110. Oddly now, nearly every summer temperature is labeled extreme with the new redundant system invented for saying it is hot. (Maybe it works for places that are not normally over 100. ) Personally, as a long time resident, who spent their youth here, it is never extreme unless it is over 113. And the people not from here still hike! Go figure. Best wishes with the fridge! There was a company in Tucson that put modern motors in them, but doing it yourself is the way to go when you can. xoxo SuButterfly 8)(8 Bungalow https://www.blogger.com/profile/12407401010841427366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2514949068618443114.post-4515233300525012072018-10-17T06:07:55.311-07:002018-10-17T06:07:55.311-07:00OH I LOVE Julia...love, love, love and can't w...OH I LOVE Julia...love, love, love and can't wait to see it in the kitchen. I am so bad about starting things and not getting around to finishing them for sometime. I think I get bored then I move to something else. I started laying floor upstairs 1.5 yrs ago...just need to make the body decide that it is up to the challenge of getting more done.

I want to hire someone to help me organize my photos, get them easy to access, and delete all the duplicates and those not even worthy of a second look. Love the new project. Will Miss Julia be a working fridge or used for storage? We had a vintage icebox for many years. It was the old oak model. I used it as a piece of furniture and stored glassware in it. One of my nieces now has it. Have fun with the projects. Remember it's the process that brings the joy!

I'm waiting for Texas to get the memo that fall has arrived - it's still hot and humid here. <br />Julia is awesome - can't wait to see her all polished up and in your kitchen!<br />We have a problem with project follow-though around here too. We both have projects floating around in our heads but sometimes they aren't the same projects. I tend to lean towards the ones we can afford and get done in a couple of days while the hubby leans towards those that are beyond do-it-yourself and require saving up for so I have to push to get the smaller ones done. (he also tends to think football season trumps projects but this year I'm ready to get some of this stuff done!) I now have 4 paint samples on my bedroom wall. I do know what I'm going with and we will be painting next weekend! We may only get the ceiling done but there will be painting! Have a smaller project on tap for this weekend.TinaTxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11373224016715969220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2514949068618443114.post-63017176497293859332018-10-05T18:31:13.904-07:002018-10-05T18:31:13.904-07:00Rue!!

I remember a fridge like that when I was a child in the late 1930s --- we didn't have indoor plumbing, but Mother insisted on a refrigerator when I was born. Plus, I remember my potty chair sitting right next to the fridge; so I didn't need to go to the outhouse!!!!

It reminds me of rooms in my latest addiction, Midsomer Murders. While down with flu, 11th day now, I've done almost nothing but sit wrapped in blankets watching one beautiful old English village after another. Half the time I don't even take in the dialogue because I'm soaking in the gardens and exteriors and interiors of English houses.<br /><br />I think I saw a fridge similar to yours in one.

How I loved that old range!! <br />Your living room looks so inviting, and the furniture is beautiful. Lucky you to have inherited some great pieces :)<br /><br />Good luck on all your projects.
