A new approach. I hope you like it.

Sometimes, new is good. I hope you’ll overlook the fact that I am reposting. I wanted to see what this looked like. Maybe I’ll post something like this every end-of-month, so in case you didn’t read a post, they are all in one place.

So, what do you think?

Besides, trying something new is good, right? And considering it’s the end of the month, it works out well.

Plus, I like being able to see my posts this way as well. It’s been two months of reflection and sorting things out. Mental health, identifying the truly important, and relationships. Some pretty heady subjects. But what else is there to do in these two dark, cold months?

Now, I contend with this Afib diagnosis. I’m having a hard time adjusting to the medications. But I try to see things in perspective. It’s not terminal. It’s treatable. Perspective certainly helps. Besides, I’m an overcomer in Christ.

I hope you have a great weekend and blessings to each of you.

    Innovative fall decorating vignettes for you to try.

    Here’s one area of my home I’ve started decorating for fall. I decided to change things up this year and spread the love around, so I tried piling up all the pumpkins in this concrete container. But I just didn’t like it. Nothing stood out. What was the point of that?     I couldn’t… Read more

    Wait till you see my “last rose of summer”

    My rose bushes have dwindled greatly over the years. Some due to neglect. Some due to the deer. Some due to increased shade. But I have one rose, a tea rose, that has defied the odds.  I planted it years ago and it never did anything. Then about three years ago it started to bloom.… Read more

    A very pretty fall dining room table arrangment

    I’m sure I”m not the only one busy decorating for the fall. Truth is, I don’t decorate for every season, only the fall and Christmas. I think it’s because I love making the cloth pumpkins we are seeing everywhere. I was at a garage sale Sat and the two women (sisters) tried to get me… Read more

  • Best chair “find” EVER and what I did to it

    Best chair “find” EVER and what I did to it

      I so wanted the title to read “Best chair find EVER and what I didn’t do to it. But a negative is usually not good for a post title and I wanted everyone to see this. Seriously, almost anything I buy I am compelled to paint or refinish or something. I have never done what I… Read more

    How getting rid of clutter can have really surprising results.

    I think I’ve mentioned before that we are considering moving from our wonderful old farmhouse. I know. Right? Everyone else wants one and I’m going to move out of one? What’s up with that? Well, our driveway goes up a hill which isn’t great. The yard is big. The house is four levels. Yep, four.… Read more
