Home Again and Back to Work!!

Oh, Wherever You May Roam. . . There is NO PLACE LIKE HOME!!





Oh, so wonderful to be back home. It was high 70' s yesterday and high 50's today. But. . . I'm not complaining at all!! Actually, I'm loving it after last week!


My little embroidery machine workhorse is going as I type. I'm embroidering the items for the basket I'm donating for Relay for Life's Silent Auction. I'm donating this basket on behalf of our 9th grade Cheer Team. I'll share pictures when my embroidery projects are completed for the basket.


In the meantime, here are some towels that I embroidered for part of our 14 year old's birthday gift. She asked for them for her bathroom. Now, if we could just keep them hanging up and not on the floor!!

Blessings. . . until next time,

I've Returned!

I'm back from the cottage! It's always so peaceful and restful when I'm at the cottage. My youngest and I went to work on some of my "projects" that I needed to tend to. . . like weeding!! I guess that's the disadvantage of having a perennial garden(s) at the cottage. And did I mention grass? I had to cut the grass too. Thankfully, we have a riding lawnmower so it makes lawncutting bearable. I guess a little work for a whole lot of wonderful is OK. (No, I didn't forget the I' in I'm back from the cottage. The I' is stuck on the right side of the picture. Can't figure out why, or know how to fix it. Sorry.)

My favorite times at the cottage is when my whole family can be together. My hubby and both daughters. Unfortunately, with jobs, schedules and "other" commitments our oldest is joining us less and less. Although I do know she longs to be with us. She loves the cottage as much as my hubby and I.

God has richly blessed us by giving us this wonderful opportunity to have a little piece of "upnorth Michigan" paradise here on earth.
