A freebie and gecko love
The big rains left us about a week ago and headed south where they caused an enormous amount of chaos and destruction. But now that the weather has cleared, I’m focusing on cracking the whip getting the The RUC moved out to the farm. Estimated time of touchdown now looks like the second week of February (please – don’t hold your breath).
In the meantime I’ve been dabbling with my three WIPs, swimming (a lot), and taking random photos.
I think you’ll like these two below.
A nice silky-oak dresser I got for free because the mirror and the hooks holding it in place are damaged. I’m sure it won’t take much for me to get it looking like new again!
I was enjoying a nice glass of wine the other night when I heard a noise above my head. When I looked up I saw these two gecko’s getting up to a bit of hanky panky above me. I think they must be well versed in the Kama Sutra.
Yes – I moved out from below them…











Haha… I love the gecko picture and your comment. I hope everything is moving along well with the farm.
I’m so excited, Tiffany. I think the move may be happening next Friday! (woo hoo!!!!)
LOVE the dresser, free or not…but free does make it that much more appealing! I’m looking for a very simple desk. Let me know it you find one.
As for the Geckos…get a room!
LOL! Not my room!
I hope the geckos gave you a bit of a giggle today
They look quite engaged.
LOL – literally!
Quite.
Gecko’s aside, I better not show that dresser to my son-in-law…. He’d love that.
But then he seems to like anything old — which might be why he and I get along together.
LOL!
I’m a sucker for old furniture. I’ve got some beautiful antiques sitting in storage until we get the RUC up and running and I’ve already decided their positions and angles
oh ohhhhh…..
sounds way too organized for me.
Seriously though I seem to have gone through some kind of metamorphosis. I used to like classic antiques, now I’m going more for sleek… can’t figure that out.
Love that shaker look. My problem would be, putting down the pen long enough to fix the screws.
LOL! I’ve got to put down that pen sometime
We had so many Geckos when we were growing up but I never noticed them like that before.. Just what are you showing them!!! hahaha
It’s so rare to see this, Lisa! I just had to get a pic (I’m pretty sure they haven’t been watching porn – unless they’ve been visiting the neighbors!)
I LOVE the picture of the geckos! I have an awesome picture of my little sister holding one. We have never been able to get that close to one again without them scurrying away. Thanks for sharing
I couldn’t resist taking a picture when I saw them like this! They’re such cute little things
Those geckos are just too amazing. Talk about curling up together. They really know the true meaning of spooning!!!
I like the dresser, too.
Marsha
Hahaha! I love that they’re ‘spooning’! They’re such cuties
They really are !!!
Who knew???
That’s actually a beautiful image of the geckos.
Love is in the air!!
It’s very artistic! I thought it looked a bit like an oriental painting when I first downloaded it from my camera to the computer
Love was definitely in the air that night
LOL the gecko’s picture is amazing though I feel like a voyeur just looking at the picture. lol
LOL!
Poor little gecko’s lovin’ is now plastered all over the internet (hope they don’t sue me)
You don’t suppose the mirror and dresser are working on their Kama Sutra positions do you?
LOL! They may well be, Allan
Well then, something most interesting might come of this. Keep us posted.
Three WIPs? How do you do Miss Gray, how do you do it?
Strangely enough I was talking to a computer programmer the other night at the pub while I was waiting to order a drink. He said he works on several programs at once instead of just one and people think he’s ‘weird’. I had to laugh, because I’m the same with my WIPs. If I get bored or stuck with one, I’ll switch to another. It’s just how my brain works, I’ve never been able to work on one thing at a time (maybe I’m OCD or something) LOL
OCD? Nah multi-talented!!
WIps get jealous if you don’t give them equal attention. I completely relate!
Love that dresser, Dianne! Here in the states they are often called a chest of drawers. However, in our neck of the woods they are called “Chester-drawers.” I see ads on Craig’s List for them all the time! (It occurs to me that maybe you aren’t familiar with Craig’s List? It is an online site for selling, trading/bartering your goods.)
I have heard of Craig’s List, Linda (I watch Judge Judy!) LOL
I love the term “Chester-drawers” and can see how this has evolved from chest of drawers. We also call them chest of drawers, but because this one has a mirror I thought I’d call it a dresser (now I’m wondering what it actually IS)
Ewwww…I went to a BnB on Kauai once and there was a resident gecko in our suite to keep bugs at bay. Didn’t sleep a wink even under the mosquito netting…
What a handy little gecko. Lucky he didn’t jump on the netting, that would have given you a big fright!
That dresser is nice! And the geckos are hilarious!
There’s a whole heap of little ones running around now!
I love them because they eat the mosquitoes
Who knew geckos liked to cuddle… lol
They are SO cute! I couldn’t believe how ‘wrapped up’ they were in that cuddle
