My Little Table and chairs

We have a festival twice a year called the "Southern Iowa Junk Jaunt".  It's in June and again in October. Little shops start popping up for miles. You get a map that connects all the little towns along the way.  Kids are out with lemonade stands and others sell sandwiches and homemade candies. People come from all over the United States to shop. The Centerville, Iowa square is alive with some of most wonderful people you could ever meet. They have wine tasting and some of the best food ever. Little shops not open any other time of the year are chucked full of everything you just HAVE to have. Antiques Farmhouse country and artisans of all kinds.
I found this adorable little square table with 4 ladderback chairs that had woven seats. I just HAD to have it!  I looked at my car and thought,  How can I get all that into my Caliber???  No, that just wasn't going to happen.  Worried that someone else would buy it while I was figuring out how to get it home, I snatched it up and paid for it. Then, I made the call... I called my dear husband, who knew this call was coming, according to him LOL.  He drove our truck nearly an hour to meet me and load up my table and chairs. I was SO Excited.  He said coming to get my table was a lot cheaper then letting me drive his truck!  He's sooo funny.
I got it home and went to work. I sanded off all the old paint and put wheels on the table. Then I sealed all the wood. I put it out on our breakfast porch. Right now, it's very country or shabby chic. I might paint the chairs later, I don't know.  I absolutely LOVE it though!  I cannot wait until October!!

I wanted to build a really small house with tiny tables and chairs. My son and I will call it the "Yellow House". I am going to fill it with a truck load of teddy bears and it's going to be a pillow fight party all the time. I want to live that way. Life should be that simple. It's the adults that keep making things complicated. A lot of problems and smaller issues can be resolved if only we will stay away from alcohol and drown ourselves with toys and cute things. It's not a girly thing. It's called simplicity and we all need it.

I think I need a butler. I need someone to cook healthy dishes for me, clean the house, manage my bills and have intelligent conversation with me and my friends. Wait.I just remembered I don't have friends. Maybe I do but none of them are around. With today's technology, you only talk to each other using your smart phones. If you're lucky, you get to talk to a human being and not just artificial intelligence. Me, I talk to plants and trees and sometimes they answer back.
