Well, Hello There ...
Didn't mean to be away so long.
I've been having problems with being able to upload photos to my blog. Since I'm not fond of blog posts with no photos, this was beyond frustrating. My tech skills are very limited. I tried my usual methods ( restart, turn off, unplug, etc.) to no avail. Since I wasn't even sure what the problem was, I wasn't sure how to even "google it". Today I made a stab at it and am feeling quite happy with myself that I somehow made it work. Not sure if I just got lucky or what, but it's good to be back to it.
The weather here has been delightful.
The cooler temperatures and shorter days have inspired me to clip some hydrangeas for fall decor.
I rounded up several vases and filled them with some of my clippings. Once the water evaporates, they should be dried and ready for adding to the various baskets and pitchers around my home.
While rounding up the vases, I went through my collection and sent most of them to new homes at the local thrift shops. Lately I have been in the mood to declutter anything and everything around here.
Since retiring, I am looking at things with a fresh perspective and trying to organize our home (and garage) to align better with this new phase of life.
These limelight hydrangeas were picked a few weeks ago and have dried nicely. I love how they pair well with my collection of brown transferware dishes.
Starting to sneak a few fall touches into the built ins.
While the calendar is still showing summer, the weather is hinting at fall which always puts me in the mood for nesting.
