JUST CANNOT LAY IN BED!






I have this horrible cold, but I just cannot stay in bed. I think I feel sicker in bed. So, I get up do something and then lay down for a couple of hours. That's how I have been spending the last 2 days. It is my mother's birthday and my father-in-law's birthday today. Love them both with all my heart! God has blessed me with wonderful parents. My father and my mother-in-law are now with the Lord! Don't forget to tell your parent's that you love them every chance you get. Time goes by so quickly and they are gone. I took a couple of pictures of my yard this morning. My yard always makes me feel better. I wonder if I am the only one that get refreshed in their garden? I took a couple of pictures of a shelf in one of my bathrooms. I also have worked on my silver spoon projects. If you have not seen them, please take a peek at my Etsy!

A NEW COLLECTION - TIME FOR THERAPY








It's true, I have started a new collection. It really sneaked up on me. It got me while, I was minding my own business. This Sunday, I got up early, before church and decided to go to a swap meet very near my home. Since, I was up early I had plenty of time before church started to "just look". As I walked and resisted many things, I noticed these beautiful, vintage, rose hats. They were stunning! So one thing lead to another and 7 hats later, I had a new collection. I know, I need therapy. I have taken a couple of pictures of some of the hats that are now part of my life. Once you see them you will see why, I hope! I also spend some time with my Noah this week. I have pictures of him eating his first salad. Also of his mother, trying to take a picture of him eating his first salad and of him riding his bike. I think he looks like Bam bam. Just look at those feet. You just want to kiss them. I have also included a few more garden pictures. I am stuck in the garden lately. It does my soul good! If you have not tried it, you should. Be careful, it's addicting!

SPRING GARDEN






As you can tell all my roses are in bloom and I just have to share. On Friday's I cut a bunch and take them to our church for the altar. They look so pretty! I look for large bud roses of different colors, so when they are all in bloom, like now, it's a buffet for the eyes and nose. I found a new thrift store today. They had vintage hats and so many pieces of costume jewelry. I will take pictures tomorrow to share. I have join a Destach group in order to clear out some of my items. Still have not put one item on the web site. I have to do this, maybe I should ask for prayer!
