Barb, how wonderful to have such a shop so nearby..had one in Midland but the owner passed away, heart attack at 66..he was wonderful, knew everything about sewing machines, repaired them while you waited, brought in what interested his clients...he had just remarried (maybe she was too hard on him) I know not funny..but she has sold the business .. sure miss Ted...

That sleigh is lovely, can just see it with an arrangement of Christmas flowers...have you had it some time or did she just give it to you?

Sounds as though your day was filled with smiles, nothing like shopping with a friend who has same interests...

Trisha, I've about 7 hummingbird feeders, only seen one hummer so far and not at the feeders, was enjoying the flowers...nice way to spend the morning...are you biking today?

Liz, good for you getting rid of almost all your things...isn't it funny one day these objects that we can't live without, then our tastes change and we go in a completlely different taste..in fact Bernice was here yesterday, her entire house was Victorian...in the past 2 weeks everything has been cleared, newly painted with lighter color and most of her Victorian antiques/furniture she had from ancestors got stored away..must go over for tea tonight and see the difference...but we talked at great length yesterday about styles...

Right now it's just too much energy for me to change from somewhat country to anything newer..which isn't me..guess when I finally find what's really me I'll change...

How about all of you, are you the 'change every few years to new style' or are you 'this is me and I'm keeping this style'????

Another 1/2 hr. and I'm off to pick up Aunt Muriel..worked in the garden for an hour, even though we got a bit of rain yesterday the ground is still dry so thought before the plants start putting their feet up to grab water from surface I'd best treat them..

Planted my ANOUK Lavender plant...so pretty
