It's been an interesting week. Lots of rain... and I feel like I didn't get near as much accomplished as I should have. And now, I'm sick. I am sure it's the Lupus... but I am trying to rest alot anyway this weekend.... or at least... that is the plan.
That said... I am happy to have internet here at the house.
I had a very wise woman/friend come up to the house this week... and she gave me some insights as to color choices for the paint... and layout suggestions for our living room furniture... which was wonderful. I feel like I now have a "course of action" so to speak once I get things thoroughly cleaned and have most of my stuff here; instead of in storage.
Considering it's just the daughter and I moving everything... I think we are doing fairly well.
And we will (no doubt) have a sale for all the stuff we brought with us... that we really didn't need too... along with some stuff that was left in the house.
In the meantime... I have a stack of books from the local library that I am wading through... and found some wonderful tidbits of places online to share with you this weekend... like these:
* This is one of the books I am reading from the library. It's really good.
* How to date a Ball Jar. Good info... especially as I tend to collect some of them (I love the blue ones).
* Hank and Spool! Supplies for embroidery and such. I hope to do alot more embroidery and quilting this winter.
* Then there is this lady... who recycles bits of old wool sweaters to make new things
* poems from Portugal. Because everyone needs more poetry in their lives.
* and I am thinking of buying this for my coat HERE --- it's so cute!
* a friend sent me this link to a Vermont Bookshop... they have wonderful reviews and such; worth a look...
* an interesting article on BUZZFEED
* and this article... which should have been titled: "I'll be Happy When..."
* and there is always MARTHA. Martha, martha, martha.
* This weekend was a penumbral eclipse... and a Full "HUNTER's" or "Red" moon... and so I thought I would include a link to a wonderful astrology site ..... here
* music I'm listening to today
* a complete list of all the Wizard of Oz books... which I would love to read
* benefits of writing in coffee shops. See? I always said it was a good place to write.

Anyway... I hope you all have a wonderful weekend... and enjoy some of these links.
See you on Monday!
