Sewing and Planning, scheming and plotting


Hello to all, hope you are having a Glorious Sunday
It was suppose to be around 61 here today I am happy to say it 
is closer to 70 yet again, cold front was suppose to come in today
But not yet, maybe later.............hope it is late this evening :)
I have two dogs getting baths tonight! It needs to stay warm 


Can not believe this was a year ago, Lilly will be two in February
gee time has sure flown by, this sweet baby melts my heart with Joy


She is such a Sweetie


This weather is such a tease, wish it would stay nice
but it will drop into the 40's for a couple of days
Not to worry because soon it will be spring, and everyone will 
complain about the heat :) 
You will hear me complain about severe weather 
that part of it I do not like, and they are warning we are going 
to have an extremely active year this year?


Finding more photos of our flowers, I think I will go with a mix
of different colors this year of my petunia's and combine sweet potato plants in with them. I have decks and fencing to stain this year, think I need to play
the part of Tom Sawyer and hire me a crew :) 

Thank you everyone who commented on my last post
I am enjoying dreaming of plans of what I am going to do with my small 
backyard area. What I am hoping to do, I have a couple of trees back there, my studio building sets back there, chicken pen etc. I plan to put mostly plants around the trees, a walkway, very little grass and a sitting area with our fire pit


I have always wanted to improve that area to enjoy it

About my little building, since we could not keep it heated well enough 
for winter I will soon be out there to work, as soon as as the cold spells 
are over with, I will share photos with you all, in the mean time
I gather supplies out of there and bring them inside to still create in my tiny kitchen. But it is working right now
This summer when we replace the window air conditioner we are getting one that has heat in it as well. So once I start working it will service me year around.

I have a pile of boxes and envelopes growing today to ship out in the morning, 
it sure feels awesome being back to work again, I am so blessed

Blessings to you all
Brenda

  3. Well Hello and Happy Sunday Sweetpea! I've missed the dickens outta ya! Glad to see you're back (ummmm, yeah, well, I've been MIA myself for a long, long, time....) 80 degrees - really? Wowsers. We've had some unseasonably mild weather the past several days, but we will pay for it... Last I heard we could get up to 21 in. of the white stuff the beginning of the week...then a plunge into the deep freeze again. I'm over it already...really! Miss Lilly is just an amazing little doll!!! So glad you have such great joy in your life and get to spend time with her. Wishing you an amazing new week ahead.... Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin

  6. Your flowers are giving me spring fever...sadly we too are under a winter storm watch for Tuesday...9-12 inches. We will see how that turns out. Lilly is so adorable, I just have to say it again and that outfit (bibs) is way too cute!
    Be blessed,
