Pics of Sunday Goodies

I like to shop in Jonesville, Allen and Quincy, and enjoy the drive. It is a very pretty drive and even though last Sunday was rainy, cloudy and dreary I still enjoyed it. I spent the whole afternoon exploring and having fun.
Rugs, runners and a new Irvins lamp and had to share this mornings beautiful sunrise.
Enjoy your weekend!!

Sorry I am behind

style="text-align: center;"> I just signed in on my blog and holy smokes I am so behind and need to catch up. It seems like there was a lapse of not many bloggers posting and tonight...BAM
Not much to post about tonight so I guess I will try to catch up..and maybe not.
I did her from Karen Martinson and she had her surgery and is home and on the mend and wish her well. Hugs Karen!
Happy Hump Day and I will be back on the weekend with some new pictures. ( I went shopping Sunday)

> First week done back to work and did it ever feel good to sleep in this morning. got all my inside work done and now I went to head outside today. 60 degrees expected...can you believe it! Makes Winter a little more tolerable. Here is what we have left for snow. See the one little pile across the drive-way?

I wanted to show you what I tweaked today after I was done looking at Pinterest. I could look at Pinterest Boards all day.
Blogger has a mind of it's owns sometimes. Don't know why it turned out with this layout. Oh Well! Enjoy Your Saturday!! ~Earlene~~

Sunday project

Hope everyone had an enjoyable Sunday.
We had snow and rain and felt like staying in all day.
I signed up to do Amys at Bumble Bee Lane Valentine Swap and decided to pull out my hooking supplies. This is one thing I plan on swapping with a partner ( don't know yet) and I can't believe it has been 16 years since I have done this. Yikes! I hope it turns out good and using colors I had left over. I know I would like to get into hooking again, I do enjoy it, hard to sit so I have to get up many times. I will finish it by next weekend.
AND
I wanted to let you know Dawns husband Dick is making the piece for me on the last post I did so if anyone else would like one made go to Dawn at Holly Hills Primitives and request it and tell them I sent you. I have one blogger friend already who wants one. Dick does a wonderful job...you should see the furniture he makes!
~Have a wonderful week~

Decorating Tip Help

I love this piece and am thinking about getting it but not sure where I would put it and how would I use it? What would you put in it? It's about 21 inches tall 11 inches wide.
I hope you all had a good day. Our company left this morning and I was off to my annual Mammogram appointment. Scary when they tell you they want to do and ultrsound...did it and all is okay...thank goodness! After,I did stop at an estate sale and picked up a really cute basket. After that I met 2 of my friends from work for lunch. Have you ever had an Appletini drink...very good. I had fish and chips for lunch. Back to work on Monday...these 2 weeks went by SSOOOO fast, but I caught up on much needed rest and relaxation. 2013 here I come. ~~Have a wonderful weekend~~ Earlene

Farewell 2012

Last day to 2012 and plans are to stay home and chill. I think I will stay in my pj's all day and watch movies and work in my Word Search. Nothing exciting but no stress here.
I do need to get ready for Norms brother and SIL who are driving up from Texas and staying with us until Friday.
Simple dinner..easy to fix comfort food and filling.
Chicken and Dumplings

Looking forward to blogging this year and sharing and reading your stories.

Have a safe and Happy New Year 2013

~~Cheers~~

I can not believe Christmas has come and gone. It is so exciting planning all the celebrations with family and friends and poof...it is over. But we had a great time, great food and new memories.
Rachel, Lauren, Nathan, Madison growing so fast.
Wrapping paper everywhere
This was the sunrise Christmas morning...so beautiful. Well I have to admit today I spent all day reorganizing, cleaning and packed away all my decorations. I get tired of looking at all of it. I did leave some snowmen in my bay window but that is it. Yesterday morning I did manage to get to the grocery store before the storm hit. It snowed so hard that I could not see the barn across the driveway. I have cabin fever big time so tomorrow I am taking off to go shopping. Catch the after Christmas sales. It has been fun reading about your holiday celebrations. Now time for New Years planning. Happy New Year ~~Earlene~~
