Night Stand Redo



I'm a member of a Facebook Group, Furniture and Big Stuff Only. Most of  the time I just keep scrolling , but every now and then something catches my eye. I have wanted new night stands for our bedroom. My night stand goes with a bedroom suite I had in high school and Kev's was a stand my brother built for DVD player and what not a long time ago. So when these came across my  Facebook feed I jumped on it. I wanted to paint them black with teal drawers to match the dresser and replace the drawer pulls with some that match the metal of dresser. I drove to Alexander to pick them up the next afternoon.
They have been sitting in the garage since then. This morning I didn't have anything to do, so I pulled them out. I gave them a good wipe down. I didn't bother sanding them. None of the scratches were too deep and I always use paint and primer in one.
I love them!!!! Here they are in the bedroom. I still have to tweak the decorations on them, but these will do for now.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Can't Wait to Finally Have a Garage!

This morning it was 28 degrees outside! I warmed my car up for 20 minutes and all the frost still wasn't off the windows. I can't wait til next winter when I will have a garage to park in. Not only for winter months but all months truly. In the fall I always get acorns and leaves stuck in my window. In the summer my car is always covered in bird poop and hot and in spring it's covered in pollen. Just one of the reasons I'm so excited about building a house. Having garage to park in!

A Sunday Swim

Sunday afternoon we decided to take a drive. When it was time for the dogs to get in their pen, Hatfield refused. He just stood at the car door. He wanted to go to. So we loaded them up and headed out. Our drive took us to a small lake about 20 minutes always. I didn't even know it existed. Anyways, we let the dogs swim. They loved it! Watch Lilly leap like a dolphin. Hilarious! Or at least it is to us.
