Roses for Sandi ~ Teatime Tuesday

I love tea time.  I get to slow down for a few minutes and just relax.  Such a beautiful day today, I had the day off from work so I worked at home.  Got a lot done, even freshened up my booth at the Antique Market!  Feels good to accomplish things doesn’t it?    Now […]

Random Ramblings from Me!

First of all I want all of you to see that I did clean up my dining room table!  I can’t believe I put that picture on my blog!  I’ve been tempted to delete it for the sheer embarassment of it LOL!  Well see, it doesn’t always look like that.  Most of the time it […]
