Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Window and the door

⛄     ⛄
On my morning walk today I walked up to the building site.
Ronnie, our builder passed me on his way there when I was about a mile
from getting there just after I took this picture.
Tim, Ronnie's new employee arrived right after me and then Ken
drove up in the truck.
I walked around the house picturing all my furniture and stuff in it.
Took a few more pictures while I was there.
I love the front door.
This is the bedroom.
And this is the box window which is right over the kitchen sink.
This is what I'll be looking at while I'm washing the dishes.
I'm planning on having potted herbs growing by the window.
                       Still to be installed are the French doors in the dining area and also
the French doors in the basement.

After taking the pictures I walked back home again.

Had some breakfast and then make some Mexican Rice to take along with us
for a day of playing Mexican Train.
It was our church Super Senior day out. 
 We all met at the church and brought a Mexican dish to eat for lunch.
It was fun day out.

I made some pizza dough in the bread machine and Ken is just
about to make the pizza for our supper.

That's been my day.
Count your blessings and have a happy day.

Sounds as if you have had a lovely day.

With the view from your new kitchen window and potted herbs growing beside it, what could be better.

All the best Jan

Even washing dishes would be fun with that kind of view.

Love the windows, especially the one over your sink...and the front door too! It's similar to the front door that I had picked for our house...without the side windows. Fun stuff!
