How much things change… this was me at the beginning of my bloggy journey… just 2 1/2 years later I now have 42 followers… follow about 50 blogs myself (or so.. lol)… and am a fairly active blogger 🙂

Circa May 2011

October 2013 ~ my honey optioned out on this one 🙂

What started as a way to communicate the ins and ots of starting a business at home became a crafting and creating blog focusing more on home reno, a way to remember important events, and mostly a way to show off what I do with my time 🙂

Thanks for hanging in there with me… most of all blogging brings about healing… today marks what would have been 20 years of marriage to my husband who died over 5 years ago now.  It is still tender and odd feeling.  I am still a widow who has thus far refused to remarry… and my honey seems to understand I need to raise my husbands children first. 🙂

Thanks for being there for me and taking time to comment from time to time… as for me.. I am making Chicken Divan from this recipe on Thursday…

 Thanks to my bff Connie for sending this to me… she used the quilt I quilted for her this summer as a backdrop… isn’t that cool???  So looking forward to that … otherwise.. have some cool art to share that is quite quilty… feel free to pin or download as I found them all free 🙂
