A New (to me) Clothesline!!

As much as I love Coleman...and Football...I am so ready to see something different pop up on my blog page!!  Not only is it a very OLD post...it is also a reminder of something else I am SLACKING on!!! 
I don't need that!  I need Happy!!

So I decided to jump right ahead to what I did TODAY!!  

Hung my very first items on my own CLOTHESLINE!!! 

YES!!!

I have always wanted to have one! Thanks to my attentive and hard working husband this was able to happen for a bargain!!  Not far from our house an old house was recently torn down for the possibility of new apartments/condos.  The old clothesline was the only thing left standing.  We happen to know the new owners of the property and Jug asked if he could buy the poles from him.  He laughed and told him to PLEASE go take them!  Which he did...after a lot of digging, and hammering off of the old cement (these babies had a STRONG foundation!) they were secured with.

After a quick $4 spray paint job and a couple of new holes...we are in business!!

I am surprised at the sense of satisfaction this brings me!

I think it must be a combination of things.  

#1. The re-purposing and new life it brings to something that was obviously once needed and appreciated.

#2.  The representation of a slower, simpler life...and hope for incorporation of that.

#3.  The fact that my "line dry" clothes will actually have a place to line dry!

and

#4. That it is shiny RED!!

I'm not sure...I just know it makes me so happy to look out my bedroom window and see it!

I also know it makes me happy I had something to easily post and motivate me to update this blog!  Here's to hoping I can "bring new life" to all of the other areas in my life that need some perking up!
