It's been awhile....

Hello Everyone,

I haven't posted on this site for sometime. I spend most of my blogging time on Blogger. Not fair to this site...I know.

So, I thought it was time to blog here a bit.

I've been keeping busy a always. Treasure hunting for my shop...that's always fun.

Fall has come and gone...in retail anyway. It's time for good Ole St. Nick! What fun it is to try to come up with fresh ideas for the shop each Christmas.

 I've pretty much changed everything....you know how it is when you rearrange a room in your house....everything just seems so clean and almost new.

My house on the other hand is a mess...I 've got to store all the goodies somewhere.

If your in the area you'll have to stop in and see...the shop, not my house!

Birthdays, Birthdays and more Birthdays! That's our family in the fall. By January I don't want to see another cake!

This year I tried to come up with a special gift for my son-n law Ed, and my son Nick.

I think I was successful. I decide to make them each a DVD/CD.

I gathered pictures from their earliest years to the present and put them to music.

For Ed, I chose the song "In Color" and had all the pictures converted to black and white.

For my son Nick, I chose " Simple Man" both CD's turned out great. We plaedy the CD at their parties....

There were lots of tears.

What else I have i been up to? Busy preparing for " A Gathering In The Hall"  ....I hope it's a big sucess for all those participating.

We got a new kitty...he is so good...he was barely six weeks old when we got him and he has not had one accident...goes to his box everytime! He's a firecracker though...you know how kittens love to chase your feet....lol...makes walking a little hard at times!

I hope to get some photo updates for you all to enjoy some time soon.

Have A Blessed Day,

Linda*

I just added new photos to Carol's album.

I left some old favs, so you can compare the old and new.

See if you can spot all the changes.

Where has summer gone....

Wow, I can't beleive that end of summer is near. This summer has gone by so fast.

It's been a busy one. I sent most of it focusing on family and business.

We had our big "Summer Kick Off Sale," that was a lot of fun.

Our grandson Ethan had his surgery and is doing well...his leg device should come off in Oct, just in time for his 8th birthday.

I spent a lot of time out treasure hunting for the shop and myself.

We had our house photographed by both Country Sampler and Judy Condon....great memories!

We have been preparing for The In The Spirit Of Friends Show, and just recently I was ask to organize a primitive craft/antique show for Waynesburg. I'll give details later.

In between all this there has been plain old everyday life...and that's a job in it's self....one I love!

And to think I'm asking where summer has gone.
