To say that we are busy over at Heartwood and offline most of the time. We’ll be back.
Home Keeping In Autumn
Now that fall is here, we get to rejuvenate our home decor. Somewhere we have a few things stored away. Frances is finding it today and is at home creating for us. (While I am over here at the house near the job brainstorming about what to beautify at home.) The big pot of… Continue reading Home Keeping In Autumn
As I Was Saying…
Okay, here is what it can be like to be a mom with adult children. I really wasn’t planning to have a case in point for you Amy, when I posted last in comment to your post, but life happens and I think this fits. Frances is hoping to go to Thailand to help her… Continue reading As I Was Saying…
Being a Mom
In reading Amy's thoughts about being a mommy to little ones 24/7 and all that goes with it, I got to thinking about my own stage of life. All my babies are gone and I would be one of those that Amy is referring to as "an older woman". So is my life easier than… Continue reading Being a Mom
Summer is Giving Way to Fall… and Other Ramblings
The green of the leaves and grasses is old and faded. I tend to mourn the passing away of summer even while relishing the arrival of cooler weather. Swimming and sweating are done.

Home Is Where You Hang Your Hat Part Two
Top of the china cabinet redo. I had time to clean at home in TheStoneHouse today.

(Pint jars are so amazingly tiny and quaint, after quarts and half gallons jars for years of… Continue reading Home Is Where You Hang Your Hat Part Two

Frances and I have decided to bring it in for winter and coax it. The flowers in our garden are beautiful this year. We… Continue reading Home Is Where You Hang Your Hat
Computer Woes Beset Me
It is not fun at all. All my old familiar pages are gone. Oh, the computer comes up just fine, but the "local profile" seems to be unable to load. Which means that my desktop is all slick and clean and sterile. The picture of Jube and Hava are missing from the background. My pictures… Continue reading Computer Woes Beset Me
My August Garden
How could I know that when we planted the garden this spring that we wouldn’t be home to enjoy it? Fortunately Brad and I mulched it with cardboard and old hay so the weeds have not taken over. Each weekend while we are home I feast with my eyes and gather bouquets for the table.If… Continue reading My August Garden
