Home from Illinois

Our eldest daughter found this house, it is for sale in a small town north of Decatur.....she wants to buy it but her honey is not ready to move. We got to see it inside and it is a beauty. Built in 1903 with a lot of the original wood work.


My eldest son on the right drove us up to Wonderlake, almost to the Wis. line, where the youngest son, on the left, lives with his wife and stepdaughter, and cat Cloe.



Had a very brief visit with my granddaughter and my two great grandchildren.





Was able to find enough miniture tea cups to finish filling the two racks...........

I'm done now, even if I do have a few left over, no more racks.







The lemon plate I found at an antique mall and the tea pot, a Hall, was bought at a yard sale by my son-in-law. He always spoils me with a treasure.

*********************************************************

The weather could not have been any better. It was in the 70's in the day time and a little cooler at night.

It was a fun time but it sure is good to be home.

Honey and the cats missed me a lot, it is nice to be loved.
To bad I could not bring some of that cool weather back with me.

Hopefully fall is just around the corner.

Hello, Hello, Goodbye for awhile.


HERE IS THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER , IT IS
FROM A VINTAGE CALENDAR.
MAYBE IT IS SOMETHING YOU CAN USE
IN YOUR ART WORK OR JOURNAL.
I PAID FOR ALL TWELVE MONTHS BUT PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COPY IT.
***************************************************


I CHOSE THIS IMAGE FOR SOMETHING I WANTED TO SHARE:

When you find the Infinite, where will you put it?
In your broken vessel ?
It will not stay.
In a whole new one ?
It will not fit.
Let the heart be broken in bitterness
for its confines.
Let it be whole in the joy of a boundless soul.
This is the secret that Man holds over the angels.
Only the human heart can be broken and whole at once.





Another really neat image I found and wanted to share.

*******************************************************
The ceiling is done, finally....YEAH !
We are leaving at five a.m. going to see family in Illinois.
Honey is coming back in a few days, I on the other hand will be gone most
of this month. Might as well make the best of it, hard telling how long it will
be before I can go up again.

As soon as I finish this post I will shut the computer down for a much needed
rest..........
See ya all the first of Oct.
Try and stay cool, fall is just around the corner.
BE BLESSED
