Beside it are reproductions of 18th century Chinese import ware. Above the picture is a Bible page from an early Gutenberg-style press. The chair is perhaps 100 years old. It is in the Shaker style and hails from New England. The chest by the chair is circa 1880, The finish is rubbed black with age. The edges are worn smooth from use. The Log Cabin quilt was only 30 years old but made by elderly ladies who had learned from their mothers the centuries old quilt pattern. The painting on the wall was from the 1970s painted by a known artist whose work was almost always commercial. This was not developed for a commercial market but sold by the artist to my Mother because she liked it and he liked her. 2014-08-02T01:10:33+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/07/16/forty-degrees-below-zero-at-my-desk/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/waterfordtable-800x515.jpg2014-07-20T00:17:52+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/07/10/a-moths-visit/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/mothonfurniture-577x800.jpgmoth2014-07-12T00:05:15+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/07/04/u-s-deceleration-of-independence-absolved-from-all-allegiance-to-the-british-crown/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/declaration_of_independence_stone_6301.jpgdeclaration_of_independence_stone_6302014-07-05T07:00:02+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/07/03/unpacking-our-new-life/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/unpacking-800x600.jpgunpacking2014-07-04T07:12:06+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/07/02/2985/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/barnhandscraped-table-800x568-2.jpgbarnhandscraped table (800x568) (2)https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/consoletable2-546x800.jpgconsole table2014-07-03T08:17:19+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/07/01/time-out/2014-07-02T05:57:31+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/06/30/putting-things-together/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/crossedlegs-450x800.jpgcrossedlegs (450x800)2014-07-01T14:35:18+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/06/14/venturing-out/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/hood-sthelens-800x427-2.jpghood-sthelens (800x427) (2)https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/p8121853-2-e1366797442809.jpgtraildog2014-07-01T08:59:36+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/06/28/double-full-rainbow-at-twilight/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/doublefullrainbow-800x506.jpgtwilight rainbowhttps://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/0-2a-800x610.jpg0-2https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/2-0-800x534.jpg2-02014-06-29T16:13:01+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/06/27/the-closing-of-an-era/2014-06-28T11:35:03+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/06/26/anniversary-with-exhaustion/2014-06-27T14:04:46+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2014/06/23/tomorrow/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/sophie-waiting-1.jpgsophie-waiting-1https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/respirator.jpgrespiratorhttps://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/buffing1-800x467.jpgbuffing1 (800x467)https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/sophie-no-pose-8.jpgSophie No Pose"I will sit because you told me too but I won't like it and I will stare at you until you don't like it ether.

It was not the cabinet or the wood that was the loss. The loss was the engagement of me with the wood and the house for days as I worked on the cabinet. For my spouse it was the repeated trips to Lowes for different screws, nails, hardware and such that he kindly made so I could keep working on the cabinet. I was actually difficult to build because it snugged into the 12 inch deep intersection of the logs and the wall so that it did not impede the views. It was 8 feet tall and had to be built partially under the eves. Because of the depth and the way the smooth wood abutted the undulating logs, t had three sides, not four so it had to be build plumb in place. The cabinet was built from wood that was emotionally important. When we first moved back to the area it was so we could slow down the frantic pace of our work. The first spring break we purchased lumber to build book shelves. The shelves were never built because of the frantic pace of our work. Building this cabinet was a watershed event i that it declared we were not working frantically anymore. It also required cabinet making skills that I had forgotten from 25 years of disuse. All of these things came together into the perfect cabinet that was satisfying aesthetically, functionally and inter personally. It burned soon thereafter taking our feelings of pleasure and leaving the bitter taste of loss.2013-02-21T23:11:34+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2012/11/30/sometimes-it-really-is-that-simple/2013-02-21T22:57:18+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2012/12/03/one-hundred-and-fifty-eight-days-and-one-hundred-and-fifty-posts/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/red_rainbow8-13-06.jpgOThis is a red rainbow from the summer of 2006 which was also a bad fire year.

Inside of the paper was "pink dog" who became a good friend. The paper, however, was surprising and she was not sure if she was unwrapping something good or getting into a confrontation with something she did not understand. My day was like unwrapping presents and learning that the wrapping was not something to worry about. 2012-12-07T07:52:01+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2012/12/05/our-ficus/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/ficus.jpgFicusYou can see the edge of the ficus tree in the photo. 2012-12-06T11:12:00+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2012/12/04/stairs/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/missing-a-few-feet.jpgmissing a few feetStair can be tricky.

I view it with wistfulness both for the love and laughter shared around that table and for the things on it. The table cloth was over a hundred years old and belonged to my spouses grandmother as did the water goblets. The china and silver originated with us. The antique wooden trencher (bowl) was hand carved of maple and had charring on one side of it where it sat too close to the fire. The chairs were two of 5 that we collected at Bill Smith's Auction. They were over 100 years old and still had their original rush seats. 2012-11-20T07:13:39+00:00monthlyhttps://building1home.com/2012/11/16/a-little-484-square-foot-house/https://building1home.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/484-house-plan-floor-plan1.jpg484 house plan floor planThis final produce all on one bit of paper shocked me.
