Aww! 😭 I am dreading the day we say Goodbye. I hope it is a long time from now. That's the hardest part about having a pet. Their lives are shorter so you know it's coming. I'm glad you had your sweet kitty for 18 years. 💙 Xoxoxo
Your kitties are fortunate to be in such a lovely wooded area where they can enjoy all the comforts of your beautiful home but also roam, play and enjoy their natural instincts. They are blessed to have you
Hi, Deborah. Cleaning out the under brush was perfect. I can't wait to see those projects that you have in the screen porch get finished. You have some very nice pieces there. I love that entertainment center that you have in your living room. I hadn't thought to use one like that without the TV and just use it for display. As usual, that display you put in there is gorgeous. Everything is coming along. I'm so glad that Maxine is doing well. Poor Kitty. I know your heart melts just thinking about her. She is a grand, old lady. 18, wow!
Good morning Carla! Thank you. 😊 Lots of projects on the list, for sure. I'm also working on 3 rooms in the house, including relocating thr laundry room. It's in the weirdest place. 🤔 Maxine defines has my heart. She is so smart and loving. My husband always says the love is palpable. ❤️ I hope you have an amazing week! I am going to start summer take down today. I like a good cleaning in between seasons. Xoxoxo 🌸
@@thepaintedsouth I've done some furniture rearranging. I have a new chair on order. With 2, long haired cats, cleaning is never ending for me. I was feeling a little anxious and weepy this morning. I just got back from yoga and that helped. I have Ana on my lap now. She is a love bunny too. I'm gonna sit here and watch Netflix until I feel better. Take care.
I can't believe Maxine is 18yrs. old . So happy she is doing so well. You are a wonderful Mama to your fur babies. I enjoyed watching your wood line being cleaned up. Something on my to-do list. That birdcage is gorgeous. And I love what you are doing to the columns of that bed frame. Your house is turning into more of a home every time you post . Love what you have done. Continue to do the things that make you happy. See you next time.🤗💓💕💞
I've been watching your channel for a number of years. Your home and property is beautiful! Your taste in decor is completely different than mine. However, your voice is so calming, and I have learned so many techniques and ideas. I was visiting gal pals in Illinois in June (I'm your neighbor in Georgia), and we were watching one of your videos with a voiceover. At the end of the video, when your face appeared on screen, they both loudly exclaimed, "Wow! She is BEAUTIFUL!"
Glad Maxine is doing good. I really love cats. As always I love how you decorate. I believe you have more of my style than anyone I've seen on UA-cam. I could live with farmhouse and shabby chic styles, but I'm into more of old world, European style. Waiting to find out how you redo all the goodies you showed on your screened in porch. That's going to be a great place to spend some time in the mornings and late evenings with cooler weather coming. God bless and have a wonderful weekend.
Thank you so much! Before I started my channel, I struggled to find anyone on UA-cam with a similar style. I'm happy to know people out their share a similar taste in home decor. Old world, European, Mediterranean, French... aaahhh.. it is all SO gorgeous! I just can't do the modern, stale stuff. It is depressing to me. 😆 Have a fabulous week and Happy Decorating Kindred Spirit! 🤗 Xoxoxo
Beautiful home- so calm and peaceful! In today’s society this is a gift. An 18 year old cat that’s amazing. Happy to hear she is ok. Always enjoy your videos. I never start decorating for fall before mid September. I don’t want to rush it since we had a very wet and cool May and June. Jen
So hope your cat is ok. Our cat Ted is 20 yrs old Had cancer at 16 and with treatment is still going strong. Beautiful property and house I would love to live in a setting like that
Yay Ted!!! That's wonderful! I'm praying Maxine lives for many years to come. I can't imagine her not being here. Thank you, we love the peace and quiet. 💚 Xoxoxo
I love your porches, growing up in the country our houses always had porches with a swing on it. Love all of your ideas on the porch especially the columns in the corners. The large bird cage is fabulous! I use to have a jute rug in my living room but layered it on top of another rug, but they do shed. Can’t wait to see your finished porch! Your living room is fabulous, I love the lamps on the tables beside the sofa! You have such good taste, I love a traditional styled home! So happy your first baby is healing well, she has lived a long life! ❤
Your home looks so lovely both inside and out, Deborah! What a difference the back yard trimming made! Wow! That looks great! It's always lovely seeing gorgeous Maxine and handsome Cas. Maxine looks so sweet and fluffy! I just want to scoop her up and hug her! I hope and pray that she continues to make a complete recovery, and that her report from the vet will be the best of news.⚘
We had 5 last night here in El Paso, and tonight, we are supposed to have more rain. Love your screened in porch, your front porch, plants, and critters. What a pleasant video also, as a whole.
Thank goodness for the rain! 🌧 Someone else just commented they had no rain where they are in Texas. 🥵 I am always grateful when we get rain. Especially thunderstorms! Although, we have several large pine trees WAY too close to the house. I think we need to have a few taken down, just in case. Have a fabulous week! Xoxoxo
@thepaintedsouth I forgot to send speedy recovery wishes for Maxine. I, too, am a cat lover, animal lover that is. I don't know where that 5 came in. I meant rain. I have to be more careful before I hit send.
AWW MAXINE, Prayers for her that all test come back good 🙏🏼🙏🏼 My female G.S. has a cyst on her tail and she tore all her gorgeous long hair off her tail. I go back on Tuesday this week. if its not getting better they want to do skin grafts to see if it's cancer😪😪 They said if it is they will amputate her tail past the area. I'm praying this does not happen🙏🏼🙏🏼 I also love a good thunderstorm, they put me right to sleep. We use to have two parrots, we had two corner cages. Bird cages are very pretty. I never thought of using them for decoration with lamps and plants. When sadly we sold our feathered babies we gave the lady all their cages, toys, and hugh rolling opened stand and two table top stands. I had gotten cancer and just couldn't keep up with caring for them, plus my two kitties and G.S. puppy. that was 13 yrs ago.. The back screened in porch floor came out beautiful,, I think the rug looks great out there. The work you have been doing in your home has been beautiful and not only cosmetic but internal too. Some very expensive replacing and repairs. I think you and your husband are doing quite a bit considering having to deal with health issues too. God Bless you both and thank you for sharing all this with us.
Did you say pumpkins galore?!?!?! YESSSSSS. I’m looking forward to watching your create for fall. The posters from the bed look great on the screened in porch. You always have the best ideas. My pool is open so come join me!!!
Beautiful rain storm. We need rain and a break from the heat. We have had excessive heat alerts for weeks!!! You do have critters!! Most likely you get startled by frogs quiet a bit. . So glad to see your new video. Thanks for saying hello. You were missed.
Your place is beautiful. I live in upstate Indiana and it gets hot and humid here, but certainly not like South Carolina. I don't think I would like all the critters. Especially the geckos. I live in town and have live trapped raccoons and possums in my back yard! I'm now after an elusive ground hog! I will win this battle in the end. Love your videos and just watching your energy and perseverance for projects is inspiring.
Your porch and the grounds are beautiful. Luv your decorating style. Your kitty is adorable!!! Luv everything you've thrifted...all stunning. Luv ur videos. Luv & blessings from Texas. ❤❤❤
I was just getting ready to ask where you've been and if everything was alright, and here you are with another delightful video. Ah! The music, the rain, your soothing voice just calms my soul. You offer a little bit of everything, too! I literally laughed out loud at your continued use of the hose!! I feel like I'm your spiritual twin! We love the same things, the same style, the same humor, cats... Praying for your sweet Maxine! Cas is a handsome guy. And, I'm with you about the glass top on the table and return to the original green, or maybe something like the decorative piece at 16:29. Can't wait to see what you do with it, and all the projects! Oh, and I don't rush seasons (as my dear mother called it). I don't decorate for fall until after Labor Day when I have to stop wearing white, lol.
Love seeing Maxine and Cass ! Sending hugs, kisses and love to sweet Maxine and prayers for good test results ! Your home is gorgeous and I love seeing all your thrifted and FB marketplace finds ! 😺💞😺
Thank you for sharing your day. That was so fun! Or days I guess. I absolutely adore your style. It is so rich, warm, and high end looking. You are so talented! Hugs from Utah!
I absolutely love what you’ve done with the bed posts!! They’re just beautiful on your porch♥️ I’d have never thought of doing that. Sending prayers for Maxine🙏🏻
I get the best decorating ideas from you! I'm looking forward to seeing how the porch comes along. Atlanta has also been a hot box this summer, leaving me unable to do some things outside. So glad Maxine came through surgery ok. She does have a few years on her! A beauty! Blessings!
Thank you for showing us your yard and porch. It was so relaxing listening to the thunder along with your beautiful music choice, and all your visiting critters were fun to see. We don't have lizards where I live in Oregon, but do love to hear the frogs and crickets in the evening. I look forward to seeing the results of your projects and fall decorating. 🍁🍂🌻 So glad to hear Maxine is doing well.
Prayers for complete healing for your kitty cat. Thank you for the storm. I am in Calif where we almost never have any. I wait years for one. I miss the Midwest. Paint the porch dark so you don't see the dirt as much. It doesn't cool down here until Nov and I am not going to be pushed into Fall decor till then. I hate saying that but it's going to be again over 100 each day here, so I am not in the mood. I cannot pretend it's Fall when it's summer.
You have a beautiful home!! Both inside and out. I love sitting on our deck and watching our hummingbirds!❤ We don't have as many hummingbirds as you do,but we love watching them sitting on the limbs and chasing each other.
So glad Maxine is doing better! Your home is beautiful. With this heat it is hard to any outdoor projects! Love how the area looks after removing all the bushes etc.
Love summer rain and thunderstorms on a hot summer day ! You have a great eye for things ,such a score on the bird cage( I’m jealous ) ! Debra, your home is lovely inside and out . Prayers for Miss Maxine , she’s so beautiful .
Love your porch! I love all critters…fun seeing yours. Glad your cat is doing well. That is a neat birdcage! I am so tired of heat and humidity…we are in Maryland on the eastern shore. I usually start fall decorations the last week of August now. Used to wait even longer but it goes by so fast and it’s my favorite season. Tfs your lovely home!♥️🤗
I lived on the eastern shore for a period of time many years ago. My father owned a barbershop there ,”Kent island barbershop”. It’s interesting to think that perhaps one day we crossed paths on that tiny island.
Bless Maxine! I hope she continues to do well, and all is well with biopsy. Love your porches, the toads, lizards, and hummingbirds! I start with fall decor when the leaves change color!
Love your plants and wow, those hummingbirds. I had no idea Maxine was so old, she certainly doesn’t look old. I sure hope her path report comes back ok. I am an animal lover like you, my pets are family. So good to see you and what you’ve been up to. I really liked seeing the brush be removed, and the end result is amazing.❤️
You popped up on my feed so I had to subscribe. Your aesthetic is amazing and I’ve been binge watching you all day. You’ve given me such great inspiration and motivation. And, of course, I love that you love your pets like children. I’m glad your fur baby Maxine is doing well. It warms my heart that she’s still around at her age. I lost my kitty at age 18 and she took a piece of me with her. They all do don’t they? Anyways, thanks for such wonderful content.
I am so sick of this hot summer and the incessant heat! I decorated for fall just to keep me sane and I must say it worked!🤪🤪 Fall is my favorite time of year and I enjoy the decorations so much! Can’t wait to see your fall decor!
Deborah, your home is so beautiful! You've really done a great job decorating it. I can imagine how beautiful it's going to look with the fall decorations. I have already started on my fall decor. Takes me at least a week to decorate my home. But when it's done it gives me such contentment & peace. Especially burning apple-cinnamon candles. Oh I love it! Thank you Deborah for being such an inspiration to us viewers.
and Mrs T Lovely video your home is so interesting and your decor looks amazing Thank you for sharing and including clips of your fur babies and hoping Maxine does well in recovery.
everything looks just marvelous, especially the front porch. you are so lucky that Maxine is on her way to a full recovery. thank you so much for sharing your lovely home with us.
Hi Deborah. I’ve enjoyed this video. How nice to have a screened in porch. It is all looking lovely and very relaxing. I love the tree and bushes removal. That really opened the backyard up to such a nice view. I love your style of decorating. That’s my true style. However, as I age I tend to go less with my decor as it’s getting to be too much for me to deal with. I really hope before next spring to have our back deck screened in. I am happy that your cat is healing and doing much better . Have a wonderful week ahead. God’s blessings.☺️❤️🙏🏼
How beautiful everything looks and love your yard and plants! Made me feel like a mini vacation! You are so talented and I just loved this video! Maxine kills me as she’s so relaxed and just loving the whole thing! Whew you do so much and can’t wait to see more! It will all be amazing cuz everything you do is terrific! Have a beautiful night!😛😓🥳🥳🥳
Hi Deb, Donna here! Years ago when we needed to replace our huge wood porch, my smart husband came up with a great idea! Just pull up each board with a cats paw tool, turn them over and nail it back in! You have a new looking porch. He said he did have to replace about 1/4 of the wood, some due to just being old, the others to getting torn up in the process! I hope that helps!
Such a pretty setting. I enjoy your redos so much. And I like your past fall and Christmas decor.. can't wait to see those seasons at your home. Thank you Deborah. I usually start after Labor Day. My husband and son go on fishing trip Saturday after that so arranging fall stuff keeps me busy. Hope your hubby doing well. And your kitty gets good news.
I love your color palatte in your house. I am going to start bringing in some Fall decor little by little this month. I have 4 cats & I just love seeing your cats. Bless your Maxine. I'll be thinking of her.
My pleasure. 😊 They are kind of expensive at times, but worth it. Maxine hasn't cost us too much over all these years, however she's making up for it now. 😆 I understand why so many people can't take their pets to the Veterinarian... what they charge is absurd. I feel blessed that we could take her for the care she needed. ❤️ Xoxoxo
@@thepaintedsouth I agree, it's just heartbreaking not to be able to afford care for the Little Critters. It's $60 for just an office call now, doesn't include anything else
One wonder thing about South Carolina is it's glorious thunderstorms. I too, sit on my front porch to watch the hummingbirds flit around the feeders. I only have three birds. How fortunate you, we are!
I love all of your decor. I’ve been watching you for a few years and you are just the best and arranging things and I’m gonna say a prayer for the pretty kitty that she does well with all the test.❤
God bless Maxine! I'm happy to see her recovering so well. Your hummingbirds are amazing. I love hearing their chatter. We don't have nearly as many as you. Quite the menagerie on your front porch😊 you're never alone out there. Your house is lovely, as always. I enjoy seeing your finds and how you re-imagine them. I can sympathize with the jute rug. I stopped buying coir doormats because they shed everywhere. The shedding gets tracked indoors.
You and I have several identical items it's uncanny I absolutely love how the brush was cleared, we need to do what as our property is much like yours. Last week we had a bear and a bobcat however as the weather is so hot and dry and they are coming out of the mtns and hills looking for water and food........ Love the table your mother in law gave you.......and Yes, that is either a 50--- or 60 fabric pattern. I love your large bird cage..........everything is amazing as always! Can't wait for the next video. So happy kitty is doing well. She's so so pretty! Blessings
Hope Maxine is fully healed and healthy, I had a scare with my 28 year old RJ kitty, he got a upper respiratory infection, use doing now after being meds. Homes take time to decorate, don't rush, you do wonderful work with your thifted treasures. Love see the hummingbirds . 💜💐
Aww poor lil Maxine! I’ll pray her results are okay. Well, Deborah it’s been over 105 for over a month and a half with not a drop of rain. The humidity is horrible and very few Texas ladies are applying makeup. It’s a waste of product. My friend is so sick of this weather she’s decorating for Christmas to try a trick her brain into cooler temperatures 😂🤣
Oh no word! Wow! That Texas heat will make you go loopy! 😆 Hey, she'll be ahead of the game for Christmas decor! I hope you get some rain soon. 🌧 The air certainly feels thick outside. When do you usually see the weather start to cool off in your area? I guess it's around mid September here. Maybe. Idk. Lol.
@@thepaintedsouth late October early November we will have better temperatures. If northern Texas gets snow it will be a few flakes in February and maybe a small ice storm. But after this summer, all bets are off🤣
I don’t decorate for fall till September. I’m in NC and it’s so hot, humid, and miserable here too. Beautiful fur babies! Praying clean bill of health for her. Much love to you
You’re so CREATIVE ❤️ Your home is so beautiful …great job hand scrubbing 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 You’ve shared so many decor ideas Thank you so much for sharing BEAUTIFUL !❤️🙏🏽❤️
I love your property and the enhanced views. All the hummers are incredible. Yes, wildlife can certainly make a mess. I love your decorating style. Prayers for Maxine - she is beautiful as always.
Your home is beautiful. I love your style! Can't beat a good thunderstorm, especially when its humid. Your kitties are adorable. I'm glad Maxine is doing better. Looking forward to fall. I usually start decorating Sept. 1st even though I want to start now. 😁 🍂🍁
Prayers for beautiful and sweet Maxine. I'm looking forward to fall and seeing your lovely home in all its splendor. It's been stormy and rainy in Kentucky and did I mention humid. It's supposed to cool down a bit later this week. Fingers crossed.
It made a huge difference, for sure! I know it will grow back fast, but will probably be maintained with just a bushhog. I love that approach with the plants looking tired. It's so true. They just say... yeah, I'm done. Lol. Happy Decorating! 🍁🍂🌾
Those frogs!😍 Have you noticed how loud those little bitty tree frogs are? They are so cute!
Bless your sweet kitty. I had my last kittycat for 18 years also. I miss him everyday. Love your ideas.❤
Aww! 😭 I am dreading the day we say Goodbye. I hope it is a long time from now. That's the hardest part about having a pet. Their lives are shorter so you know it's coming. I'm glad you had your sweet kitty for 18 years. 💙 Xoxoxo
Your kitties are fortunate to be in such a lovely wooded area where they can enjoy all the comforts of your beautiful home but also roam, play and enjoy their natural instincts. They are blessed to have you
❤ I really like your flavours in decorating for your home! I especially like the large birdhouse!
Thanks so much! 😊 I couldn't believe I got that birdcage for $60! It's super heavy.

There’s nothing like a good thunderstorm, hearing the rumble and rain while cozy and safe in your home.
Absolutely! ⛈️⛈️⛈️🙂
I love all of your treasures! You have such an eye for the beautiful, and so much talent in revitalizing everything!❤
Thank you so much! I get myself in trouble because I seem to always buy project pieces and then I have 20 to do at a time. 😆 It's fun, though! Xoxoxo
Everything looks so beautiful. My prayers are with your fur baby with the Lord will she will be fine. Prayers for Maxine.🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you! 🤗💙🙏

Awww….. poor, sweet Maxine - also praying that the results are good & that she is on the road to recovery 🙏🥰
Thanks so much! Xoxoxo

so relaxing...enjoyed this very much!
Love that birdcage. And using those bed post as columns, what a great idea. I don't do fall decor until Oct. I so enjoy your channel.
We JUST moved from CA to NC. It’s so beautiful it feels like we’re in the forest. Your things are lovely!

Prayers for complete healing for your kitty cat. Thank you for the storm. I am in Calif where we almost never have any. I wait years for one. I miss the Midwest. Paint the porch dark so you don't see the dirt as much. It doesn't cool down here until Nov and I am not going to be pushed into Fall decor till then. I hate saying that but it's going to be again over 100 each day here, so I am not in the mood. I cannot pretend it's Fall when it's summer.
It is really hot and humid, I’m in SC as well. First time watching you. You have a beautiful home and love your fur babies.
Thank you so much! We might be neighbors. 😬😬😬🥵 Xoxoxo
I love how you can hear all the birds and how beautiful your property is. It’s fun to see what all your working on. ❤
You have a beautiful home!! Both inside and out. I love sitting on our deck and watching our hummingbirds!❤ We don't have as many hummingbirds as you do,but we love watching them sitting on the limbs and chasing each other.
What a beautiful view - all so peaceful. Glad Maxine is getting better - can't believe she's 18. Prayers to all of you.
Poor Maxine. I pray for good news. Your home is beautiful. The thunder storm was so pretty. Thank you for sharing all your projects. I just love them.
So glad Maxine is doing better! Your home is beautiful. With this heat it is hard to any outdoor projects! Love how the area looks after removing all the bushes etc.
Loved the after on the clearing in your backyard. All the frogs would freak me out😝 but the Carolinas are beautiful
So glad Maxine is doing good. Prayers for good results. Glad Cas is doing good t oo! Love your home and videos!
Love summer rain and thunderstorms on a hot summer day ! You have a great eye for things ,such a score on the bird cage( I’m jealous ) ! Debra, your home is lovely inside and out . Prayers for Miss Maxine , she’s so beautiful .
Love your porch! I love all critters…fun seeing yours. Glad your cat is doing well. That is a neat birdcage! I am so tired of heat and humidity…we are in Maryland on the eastern shore. I usually start fall decorations the last week of August now. Used to wait even longer but it goes by so fast and it’s my favorite season. Tfs your lovely home!♥️🤗
I lived on the eastern shore for a period of time many years ago. My father owned a barbershop there ,”Kent island barbershop”. It’s interesting to think that perhaps one day we crossed paths on that tiny island.
Bless Maxine! I hope she continues to do well, and all is well with biopsy. Love your porches, the toads, lizards, and hummingbirds! I start with fall decor when the leaves change color!
I would love to have a porch like yours. It looks so inviting.
Thanks for sharing. I have decorated the inside but will not decorate the outside for a while.
I can’t wait to see that lovely screened in porch all finished 😊 absolutely love that birdcage ❤ beautiful
Love your plants and wow, those hummingbirds. I had no idea Maxine was so old, she certainly doesn’t look old. I sure hope her path report comes back ok. I am an animal lover like you, my pets are family. So good to see you and what you’ve been up to. I really liked seeing the brush be removed, and the end result is amazing.❤️
Luv ur kitties
Such a soothing setting❤
Maxine is so adorable
Continuous blessings for your sweet fur baby
You popped up on my feed so I had to subscribe. Your aesthetic is amazing and I’ve been binge watching you all day. You’ve given me such great inspiration and motivation. And, of course, I love that you love your pets like children. I’m glad your fur baby Maxine is doing well. It warms my heart that she’s still around at her age. I lost my kitty at age 18 and she took a piece of me with her. They all do don’t they? Anyways, thanks for such wonderful content.
So glad your Maxine is recovering and pray for benign test results. Your home video's are so nice to watch. Take care God Bless.
I am so sick of this hot summer and the incessant heat! I decorated for fall just to keep me sane and I must say it worked!🤪🤪 Fall is my favorite time of year and I enjoy the decorations so much! Can’t wait to see your fall decor!
Deborah, your home is so beautiful! You've really done a great job decorating it. I can imagine how beautiful it's going to look with the fall decorations. I have already started on my fall decor. Takes me at least a week to decorate my home. But when it's done it gives me such contentment & peace. Especially burning apple-cinnamon candles. Oh I love it! Thank you Deborah for being such an inspiration to us viewers.
and Mrs T Lovely video your home is so interesting and your decor looks amazing Thank you for sharing and including clips of your fur babies and hoping Maxine does well in recovery.
Thank you so much! Xoxoxo 🌸
Beautiful nature surrounding your home! Love the way your living/family room is looking! So glad Maxine is doing well and Cas. ❤
Everything looks beautiful, hope your little kitty will be fine, sending prayers 🙏🏻😇
everything looks just marvelous, especially the front porch. you are so lucky that Maxine is on her way to a full recovery. thank you so much for sharing your lovely home with us.
I'm glad Maxine's surgery went well. I' ll be praying for a good pathology report.
Hi Deborah. I’ve enjoyed this video. How nice to have a screened in porch. It is all looking lovely and very relaxing. I love the tree and bushes removal. That really opened the backyard up to such a nice view. I love your style of decorating. That’s my true style. However, as I age I tend to go less with my decor as it’s getting to be too much for me to deal with. I really hope before next spring to have our back deck screened in. I am happy that your cat is healing and doing much better . Have a wonderful week ahead. God’s blessings.☺️❤️🙏🏼
How beautiful everything looks and love your yard and plants! Made me feel like a mini vacation! You are so talented and I just loved this video! Maxine kills me as she’s so relaxed and just loving the whole thing! Whew you do so much and can’t wait to see more! It will all be amazing cuz everything you do is terrific! Have a beautiful night!😛😓🥳🥳🥳
Hi Deb, Donna here! Years ago when we needed to replace our huge wood porch, my smart husband came up with a great idea! Just pull up each board with a cats paw tool, turn them over and nail it back in! You have a new looking porch. He said he did have to replace about 1/4 of the wood, some due to just being old, the others to getting torn up in the process! I hope that helps!
Such a pretty setting. I enjoy your redos so much. And I like your past fall and Christmas decor.. can't wait to see those seasons at your home. Thank you Deborah. I usually start after Labor Day. My husband and son go on fishing trip Saturday after that so arranging fall stuff keeps me busy. Hope your hubby doing well. And your kitty gets good news.
I love your color palatte in your house. I am going to start bringing in some Fall decor little by little this month. I have 4 cats & I just love seeing your cats. Bless your Maxine. I'll be thinking of her.
Thanks for taking such good care of your kitties.
My pleasure. 😊 They are kind of expensive at times, but worth it. Maxine hasn't cost us too much over all these years, however she's making up for it now. 😆 I understand why so many people can't take their pets to the Veterinarian... what they charge is absurd. I feel blessed that we could take her for the care she needed. ❤️ Xoxoxo
@@thepaintedsouth I agree, it's just heartbreaking not to be able to afford care for the Little Critters. It's $60 for just an office call now, doesn't include anything else
One wonder thing about South Carolina is it's glorious thunderstorms. I too, sit on my front porch to watch the hummingbirds flit around the feeders. I only have three birds. How fortunate you, we are!
I love the wildness of your woods in the storm ❤️❤️
Really enjoy watching your channel ! Beautiful and peaceful place. The hummingbirds are really busy, I love watching them! Take care!
Always happy when I see another video of yours followed for years
I love all of your decor. I’ve been watching you for a few years and you are just the best and arranging things and I’m gonna say a prayer for the pretty kitty that she does well with all the test.❤
Really enjoyed your video. Such peacefulness. Nice that you have a big wooded lot and so many hummingbirds.😊 Have fun w your projects.
Love the new view u had opened up in the woods. Porch looks so much better.
God bless Maxine! I'm happy to see her recovering so well.
Your hummingbirds are amazing. I love hearing their chatter. We don't have nearly as many as you. Quite the menagerie on your front porch😊 you're never alone out there.
Your house is lovely, as always. I enjoy seeing your finds and how you re-imagine them.
I can sympathize with the jute rug. I stopped buying coir doormats because they shed everywhere. The shedding gets tracked indoors.
What a great surprise!!!nice to see you ❤
You and I have several identical items it's uncanny I absolutely love how the brush was cleared, we need to do what as our property is much like yours. Last week we had a bear and a bobcat however as the weather is so hot and dry and they are coming out of the mtns and hills looking for water and food........
Love the table your mother in law gave you.......and Yes, that is either a 50--- or 60 fabric pattern. I love your large bird cage..........everything is amazing as always! Can't wait for the next video. So happy kitty is doing well. She's so so pretty!
Blessings
Hope Maxine is fully healed and healthy, I had a scare with my 28 year old RJ kitty, he got a upper respiratory infection, use doing now after being meds. Homes take time to decorate, don't rush, you do wonderful work with your thifted treasures. Love see the hummingbirds . 💜💐
I love your decorations and all your thrift finds, so cozy and grouped together so well. I hope Maxine gets well soon too. 😊
The thunder and rain was so relaxing, glad your kitties are both doing well. You home is so cozy 🥰👍🏻
Texas Lady
Aww poor lil Maxine! I’ll pray her results are okay. Well, Deborah it’s been over 105 for over a month and a half with not a drop of rain. The humidity is horrible and very few Texas ladies are applying makeup. It’s a waste of product. My friend is so sick of this weather she’s decorating for Christmas to try a trick her brain into cooler temperatures 😂🤣
Oh no word! Wow! That Texas heat will make you go loopy! 😆 Hey, she'll be ahead of the game for Christmas decor! I hope you get some rain soon. 🌧 The air certainly feels thick outside. When do you usually see the weather start to cool off in your area? I guess it's around mid September here. Maybe. Idk. Lol.
@@thepaintedsouth late October early November we will have better temperatures. If northern Texas gets snow it will be a few flakes in February and maybe a small ice storm. But after this summer, all bets are off🤣
I don’t decorate for fall till September. I’m in NC and it’s so hot, humid, and miserable here too. Beautiful fur babies! Praying clean bill of health for her. Much love to you
You’re so CREATIVE ❤️ Your home is so beautiful …great job hand scrubbing 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 You’ve shared so many decor ideas Thank you so much for sharing BEAUTIFUL !❤️🙏🏽❤️
I love your property and the enhanced views. All the hummers are incredible. Yes, wildlife can certainly make a mess. I love your decorating style. Prayers for Maxine - she is beautiful as always.
Sending healing and comfort to Maxine ❤❤❤ everything looks so pretty 😊
September is good time for me. I LOVE AUTUMN 🍁🍁🍁🍂
So many critters, looks like a Florida home 🐸🐞🐛🐜🕷️🪳🪲🦎I love it when we get to see the kitties 🥰 everything looks beautiful ❤
Your home is beautiful. I love your style! Can't beat a good thunderstorm, especially when its humid. Your kitties are adorable. I'm glad Maxine is doing better. Looking forward to fall. I usually start decorating Sept. 1st even though I want to start now. 😁 🍂🍁
I’m going to try and leave decorating for fall in September
Prayers for beautiful and sweet Maxine. I'm looking forward to fall and seeing your lovely home in all its splendor. It's been stormy and rainy in Kentucky and did I mention humid. It's supposed to cool down a bit later this week. Fingers crossed.
Removing the underbrush changed your back view tremendously ❤
I decorate for fall when my outdoor flowers start looking tired.
It made a huge difference, for sure! I know it will grow back fast, but will probably be maintained with just a bushhog. I love that approach with the plants looking tired. It's so true. They just say... yeah, I'm done. Lol. Happy Decorating! 🍁🍂🌾
Great video so enjoyed the rain! Thanks for sharing your life with us 😁
Your property is so gorgeous. I love thunder too. Everything looks great. Glad you are doing well.
