FALL IS IN THE AIR

Can you believe that Fall is here?  I do think it is my favorite time of year.  Getting ready for the Holidays is always so much fun.  I am thinking soon I will do my fruit cake and fruit cake cookies as I seem to wait to the very last minute.  

Hubby and I went for a ride and as you can see the Cotton is all bloomeed out.  Sometimes when it is alot more of the cotton it will look like a blanket os snow.  This is one sign that ole man winter isn't to for behind.

My mind just want work today so I will be back when I can think more of what to share with you.

WELL, THAT IS A DEEP SUBJECT

well, as I stated this is a deep subject.  I still can't get some of my pictures to load.  I want to just pull my hair out,

I know it is a simple thing to fix but for the life of me I can not figure it out.  Oh, it is just a few more grey hair I have added to my very much grey hair now.

So on to another subject-

The hubby found this at a yard sale the other day.  It is really unique and I just might have to keep this myself.  What do you think?  To keep or not to keep that is the question?

I am a vintage gal for sure  anything that is old is for me, now now, not my age but all the nice antique items I find.  I remember when I had to clean out my parents house and all the old stuff I either gave away or threw out.  Oh why did I do that, today all the STUFF is surre worth some money.  I would give anything to have a few pieces back.  Well, another ole saying, Don't cry over spilt milk.

I can sure tell that Fall is just around the corner, each day I look to see if it has made it to my house as it is still so darn HOT.

Looking forward to the cooler days

everyone, thanks for stopping by and reading my silly blog.  Sometimes the ole brain just thinks slow. Give someone a smile, it just might make their day as well as yours.

A SATURDAY HOWDY FROM SUNNY FLORIDA

Morning Friends and Family,  I started my day off with coffee and mind ya 2 cups at that.  Then it was off to WalMart for some more Yarn to finish a Afghan.  I wonder what your day will be like?

 I do know it is laundry but I keep telling myself, tomorrow is another day.  The hubby says where are my shorts and I  say, in the laundry.  Oh well, like I said tomorrow is another day.  By the way, did you know that tomorrow never comes?

I found this at a yard sale and hubby says now where you going to put that?  I will never tell.  gotta love those yard sales.

I have been pulling my hair out looking for a book I know I had.  OK now fess up, did you take my book?  Lol.

well I am being silly so time to get off this puter and get something done,

Until later,

THE BEGINNING OF FALL

Hello and welcome,
well today is the first of September, before long the leaves will all trun their colors of browns, orange, yellows and oh the beauty of Fall.  I have to say this is my favorite part of the seasons.  The hubby and I took a ride the other day into the country and we could see the cotton blooms beginning to open up.  Once they are all in bloom it is like looking at a field of white snow.  Maybe i will get you a picture soon so you can see for yourself the beauty of the cotton.

I think of the days back when I went to the little red school house.  This was where I got my start of my future life and what I would become as a lady in the world.

I have so many memories of this school house.  If only the children today could just get a taste of our world I would hope they would want to be there also just as we were.

Oh my, do you rremember the S&H stamps?  My mother would lick and paste into her book and once it was full would pick out a prize she wanted from saving them.  The more you saved the better the  item to pick from.  I don't think anything like this is in our world today.

Just a short note to say welcome in the month of September.  I hope yours will be a great one and you find much happiness in the days to come.

Just Me

TO GOOD TO BE TRUE

Hello, well, it would not work, the photos I mean.  I can get some from the Picasa ablum but not really the ones I want to use.  At one point my brain could figure it out but today I think it is the size of a pea.  So, what to do, what to do?

yep, maybe I will take a ride into the country today and see how the cotton patch is comming along.  When the fields get all bloomed out , it looks like a blanket of snow.  Maybe I will even take a picture for ya.  Oh wait, did I say Picture?  Can I get it to post, oh well. time will tell.

Today is laundry day and since I have the modern things to do this I was wondering who might remember using this washing machine?  I sure do, wait, I can';t tell you my age?  wink-wink

Those were the good ole days and if we could live like back in those days it would be a wonderful world to me.  I miss the good ole days, I read alot of the Amish books and their life is so peacefull, calm, and they live   a very different life for sure.

I hope you have a good day, take the time to sit back and enjoy all of the good things in your life.

FINGERS CROSSED

Ok , lets see what happens with this picture

TO GIVE UP OR NOT TO GIVE UP

Good  Morning, what to do, what to do, I am so about ready to throw in the towel as they say as I still can not get my pictyres to upload out of my photo album.  some i can get but not really the ones I want to use.  Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

Sunday here in cloudy Florida and looks like rain might be moving in.  I love to hear the rain on the roof as it sings me to sleep.  The winds and thundering are a differrent story.  

Yesterday hubby and I went to a yard sale but not much stuff.  I did find a quilt but after looking it over, for the price she wanted , I found big stains on it so passed it by.  Now, my friend Mona out in California, she finds the Treasures.  I tried to get her blog here but once again I could not, cry, woe is me.  she has a beautiful blog and the name is "Wsprsweetly of cottages"  I will work on trying to get it for you one of these days, in the meantime give it a try anyway.

I need to go and think about starting Lunch so I wish you a wonderful day, give someone a smile and not only will it make their day, but yours as well.
