omg squirrels again?

OK.  I like squirrels in the wildlife novelty way, "oh look, a cute little squirrel."  But when they invade MY manmade structures and scare the bejeebers out of me, I HATE SQUIRRELS!  In the shed at our house, they made a little home and ripped the stuffing out of our patio chairs.  But in Elmer's garage, ACK!  Get out!  I thought I only had to clean up after the mice.  I don't want to have to get rid of squirrels, too.

Elmer needs some new light fixtures

Mabel the Magpie will stay

 The heron painting will NOT stay
 Oops, I forgot to rotate before I imported.  Oh well.  The ugly UFO chandelier is not staying.
 Look at all those ugly black light switches.  They'll be changed out to white.
 stair light might stay
 2 sets of track lights in kitchen:  not staying
 picture window:  staying.  lights?  yah, not sure.  switchplate?  going white.
 powder room:  wall paper is leaving, and the lights will eventually.
 Master bathroom:  These lights are definitely going.  Can we say television studio?
 That light way up there is above the tub.  Will stay for now.
And that light is above the walk in shower.  Staying for now.

Introducing...Elmer















Here are your first pictures of Elmer. And some light fixtures we are looking at to go over the dining room table.
Elmer had a good inspection today. He's in good shape and should last for a long time!
