This, That and My Thoughts
YESTERDAY
I was in aw of the fact that
we had this.
and it was really,
really BRIGHT!
It felt so nice.
But up till this point this
is how we were all feeling
in Tennessee.
On my fb page yesterday a memory
photo popped up.
I took this in 2013.
It is over Hermitage property.
It is of Tulip Grove mansion.
Love this shot.
Thank you for all the nice
comments on my last post about
being exhausted.
You all know what I have been dealing
with while living at mom's, trying to
clean out things, doing a wedding
photo shoot, rain.....then
the fibro kicked in. I spent 3 days in
bed, getting up just to feed the dogs
then heading to the barn to feed. I would
then come home and dress for bed
again. You all are so caring....thank you.
The other day however I got up and
dressed a tad earlier than what my normal
had been days before. Then I just sit in
moms recliner, feet propped up and
waited till I needed to head to the
barn.
Liz....I thought of you when I
saw this.
And these for the
legs of your chairs.
While scrolling through PINTEREST.
Saturday my older brother text me and
asked did I want to go to the quilt
show with him and Lori.
They treated me to a nice day out.
We did lunch then
Quiltcon.
Then we stopped at a place on
the way home to eat again.
I however was still full
from lunch.
The Quiltcon was at the
convention center.
Loved this shot of the
convention center.
Course I had to do a selfie at the
quilt show.
I don't do those often but I
have been trying to do more just
so my kids have pics of me...
The guy in the tan vest is my brother
and the woman right above my head is
Lori.
Been trying to make myself relax at
night by reading again.
Found this one in moms stash.
Finished it up last night.
It was really good.
I understand she has written a second
book also that I would like to read.
Went through a jewelry box of moms
this morning.
Found this below.
The blue beads has to be for
one of my brothers.
Ray seems to think it is his.
He is now 61, so mom held
on to it for 61 yrs.
Then I found this.
That is Ray's writing so he must
have found them and gave
them to mom.
Located this heart pin I made
mom years ago.
The TBI coin I gave her and
the pic is me on graduation day.
It was in a locket she wore for a long
time. She gave me the locket a
few yrs ago.
Also I found these...
business cards from the jobs
I had that I had cards for.
There was also ones for Ray and
Mark.
My daughter bought a used/new
car. She had my old Malibu which
was 14 yrs old. I drove it up till 2
yrs ago and never had issues with it other
than to replace a fuel pump.
But right after Christmas the
motor blew up.
She had been driving her hubby's car
since. My mom gave Will the car back
in Nov. She got another one and wanted
him to have that one since he did not
have one.
Congrats on the car Amber.
Okay....almost time to go feed at
the barn. The critters here have been fed.
Hoping your Monday is a good one,

I love the chair leggings. That's clever. So colorful too.
I have my old business cards too. I should dig them out and see what it there.
Have a fabulous day and week. Scritches to all the babes. ♥
i would imagine cleaning out a lifetime of belongings and memories would be a very daunting task. you should have help. my mom is 85 and i know that is coming, i don't think i will have any help. i wonder if there are companies that could assist you with the heavy stuff, and you could just go though what you know is meaningful!!!
the picture of the rockers is awesome and you take great selfies.
ps...i could not find the cardinal post you referenced, i copied the link but it didn't work!!
