BASKETS ARRIVED--

I got my baskets for the new wood cupboard--
and I did a good job on the amount for each shelf and the size--
the large one on the bottom holds my counted cross stitch--
some are 'wip's' and some are wanna a bee's!!!
and the lamp is now working--a friend fixed it and it now also holds a 3-way bulb--
and that is really nice!!!
and some one seemed to have ordered a yard of this fabric when she ordered the baskets from Joann's!!!  Miss Gracie are you using my computer again?????

Last week I got the fans all out--
I have a very hot apartment--
and I kept hearing a 'bell' tinkle--
kept wondering if the 'angels' where calling me home--
then I looked up and this is what I found--
there is a little bell on the one quilt on the wall behind the computer here--
this is a school house block--
it really was kinda 'funny' hearing it ring!!!!!

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

And let all of us take some time and pray for those who lost so much this the last couple days in the storms--
Hugs, to all--

SUNDAY PHOTOS--

I love Lilac's--outside--
I can not bring them inside though --allergy's!!!
this pretty pink bush is in a  corner wall of a Church--
What a beautiful shade of pink--
Same house--
and again the same home--
Can you tell what these blooms are????
They are horse-chestnut blossoms!!!
and the tree is huge--huge--huge that has these!!!
and some little white star flowers planted around a street pole!!

Hugs, di and miss gracie

YOU ARE A MOTHER--IF---

you love something and care for something--
you need not give birth to be a mother--

you could be a mother to a pet--




 or even 'mother' a flower garden--


I believe we all 'nurture' something--
soooo--
HAPPY, HAPPY ,MOTHER'S DAY TO YOU!!!!

LOVE, DI AND MISS GRACIE
