Noooooooooooo!!

I have no control over the seasons, must accept the change, but I don't have to be civil about it.  I can't wait until summer.
Laboring on Labor Day.  The old antique white paint really darkened over the years, using White Dove throughout.  Carole came for dinner Saturday and likes the old dark paint much better.  Did that make me question the change?  Nope.  But every time I see Linda Rudman's Behind My Red Door posts, I do!!  Beautiful decorating and she recently painted walls with Navajo White, keeping Powell Buff trim (also Tyler Taupe) which I LOVE.  Still happy with my choices though and added sample jars to the gallon to get the slightly darker white for the trim here, results are very nice.  Door will be replaced soon, Sam is coming for that so I'm not bothering to paint it.
 
We've been watching updates on Dorian and hoping its downgrade continues as does the northern turn.  I was reading about prior storms and found many charts categorizing them by statistics.  The worst in death toll was centuries ago when warnings weren't possible and construction was not adequate to say the least.  All the info is from Wikipedia.

Landfall storms by severity.

Landfall storms by strength.

I know nothing about meteorology and don't understand the difference between strength, severity, and intensity. 


If you look in the distance, you'll see a spot of white.
 With a spot of black.
Enjoy your day.  To those in the path of the storm, hoping you follow the warnings and stay safe.

I like it, Marly. If we ever get around to painting, our look will be very similar. I'm over the darker colored trim trend. This look lends itself to so many styles and is clean and classic. Good for you for getting it done! Hope you are feeling good today.

I wonder where the cat came from, he maybe lost his family. Is he too scared to let you grab him to see if he is micro chipped? He doesn't look too scrawny so must be getting food somewhere. First comment deleted due to spelling errors - too early in the morning for brain to have woken up.

That cat looks like he stuck his face into some tar - lol. I am loving the cooler temps - I can sleep with no AC running!!
