My Wish for You

I find it very soothing to sit and watch this! via

Love Crocuses

Next spring I want more crocuses. I had purple ones but they seem to have disappeared this year. They make me so happy, just looking at them. I had a busy day today working inside and outside and helping a friend move. Have a great evening.

Decoupage Plates

I love this fantastic decoupage plate by John Derian Company.

I have only one piece and it's signed on the back. There is some paint loss under the backing so it must have been a reject. I got it at a garage sale for 25 cents years ago. I don't know about you, but when I buy something I love at a local house sale, I can usually remember exactly where I bought it, what kind of day it was, the seller, and all sorts of other details. I bought this plate on a beautiful summer day and my mother was with me. The sale was in the driveway and garage of a lovely home. Friends and relatives of the owners brought their goods too, so there was a big variety of good stuff and junk. I hope they have another one this year!

My First Daffodil Bloomed Today

I was very surprised to see this beautiful daffodil had bloomed when I wasn't looking.

Here it is again with a filter to show the time of day. It was dusk after dinner tonight when I took the wonder dog out for his last walk. It's good to see a bit of color, isn't it? xo

Royal Play Date

Fixing Mummie's hair.

The hug.

Look carefully.

He has 2 bottom teeth.

Can you believe we have two more weeks of this? See more BIG pictures at Town and Country.

Dizzy with Love for Baby Prince

I can't get enough of him. And I won't stop posting about him. Ever! via

Wonderful Attic Room

Isn't this attic room with a Cape Cod view absolutely wonderful? Look at the size of those floor boards! I love that writing arm windsor but would prefer a more comfortable chair for soaking in this amazing view from this wonderful windows. via

Initials on A Garage Floor

When I sold a house recently I took a photo of these initials for the owner. FM died recently and BM is in a care facility. The young couple who bought the house have a new baby and will bring new happiness into a house they bought because of the good vibes it had. The circle of life continues.
