Hello dear friends,a blessed Lord's day to you! Yesterday,with the help of my twin teen grandsons,I was able to get a bit of much needed housekeeping done. The "Nitty Gritty" stuff! Moving some furniture around in the living room,some deep vacuuming,dusting etc. It was a big job and needed to be done for a while now.
I used to be able to keep on top of such things by myself,but these days I more than not need to ask for help! It's always such a good feeling to accomplish some heavy duty housekeeping. A good feeling of relieve, for just a while anyway :) Believe me I still have many dust bunnies to conquer!
This beautiful doll is named Baby Gracie,and was given to me by my daughter Regina. She is always busy about her home cleaning and weeding! I become the (blessed) recipient of many of her discards :) But this sweet baby wasn't truly a discard, for Regina loves her, she just wasn't very comfortable displaying her in her home with all her fur babies running about. So, Baby Gracie got to come live with meme!

| Isn't she beautiful? Thanks sister,I will cherish her. |
This is a picture my sweet friend Betty stopped by with as a gift,she saw it,thought of me and it was free!
Thanks Betty! It's inscribed with a 16th century house blessing!
"Peace be to this house,and to all that dwell in it.
Peace to them that enter,and to them that depart."
I hung it just inside my door.

At home I have a very slow Internet connection, here outside the wifi connection is fast so you page is opening very well. I love all your posts
I used to have this exact same picture. I bought it at Target around 1998. My life was in turmoil at that time from a relationship breakup and the message on this print really hit home (home sweet home if you will). I hung it up on the wall over my sink (no window there) and it did not have a glass or plastic protective cover over the picture poster. Last year in 2014 I convinced myself to throw it away because after years of splashes from the sink from washing dishes, it had become all warped, faded and wrinkles. Oh how I miss this picture. It is by the artist Linda Spivey and I thought that I could just find it again on the internet. Boy was I wrong! I have been trying to find this picture for over a year now. The only place I saw it was on Ebay but it showed up after it was already sold. Cherish and protect this picture/art work, it is truly one of a kind!
