Attic Fan

Can't you see I'm busy "Feeding the Birds" -

Some one PLAY with me says Matilda

This is a long way from being finished but I had to post the first "lay in" for Christy of her Uncle Kenny feeding the pigeons in Greer, SC - he won't let me post the photo but I think the painting will turn out nice. I'll be adding the pigeons!!!!


Wow - the cool air is rushing into the house and it's wonderful. After many hours of sawing holes in my walls and roof the attic fan is in! We have the windows open (with the new screens) and it feels like natural air conditioning with fresh air. I can't believe we have been in this house for 4 years all closed up running the air. Now, I know when the humidity rises the windows will come down and the air on but several months out of the year this is so nice. And I'm sure we'll save money too. I was lying in bed yesterday and the breeze blowing in when I woke up and it reminded me of when as a little girl that same feeling with mother's white gauzy curtains blowing in the breeze. Now, that takes me back! They are coming back tomorrow to patch the walls and put in the other 2 fans in the attic to pull the hot air out. That means not a lot of sleep on a gig night - Kenny said to get up and go to the basement and sleep on my "napping couch" - which I will probably do. I also have to start packing for Florida, cut the grass, bath and groom the babies, cook dinner for tomorrow night, get clothes ready for Beluga (2 costumes changes), and work both nights. I'm going to nee a vacation before the vacation! I painted a little today - it was kinda hard but I had to stay in the basement with the girls and we played in the yard a little too. And then alas, the season finale of "Grey's" tonight. I think I'll just lie back and enjoy the cool breeze!!!!
