THROUGH MY WINDOWS

Hello there! It's ANOTHER sizzling day here at Deer Haven. A lovely day though, sunny with a breeze rustling the leaves on the trees surrounding the house.  I was awoken this morning by a knock knock knocking. So, in a befuddled state, I tried to locate where the sound was coming from.  Pardon me if I digress here. Next door to our bedroom is what should be a guest room but has been made into my sewing/craft room... where I used to churn out quilts and wall hangings for family and friends.  💖  Dare I show you a picture or two or three? They would give new meaning to the words "decluttering needed here". :-) The lighting in all the pictures is very bad. We keep most of the curtains drawn in the house to try and keep it as cool as possible. I've interspersed happy pictures here and there to offset the darkness of the others. Enter here... turn left and walk straight ahead... sit at machine... Leave by reversing or just back out

Happy July! Sandy Hook, New Jersey is about 3 hours away. Hello lovely people! Happy July! I'm so happy you stopped by! I am at the end of the 14 day quarantine since my return from Maine.  I'm not sure my life will change all that much. The risk of exposure is still there so my habits remain the same. There's really no place I really want to go anyway, at least right now.  We are invited to my son's house on the 4th  for a family pool party. Hubby and son share July 10th as their birth date so we will most likely be having cake! 💖 The day Lucy(belle) had her surgery Roger and I took a drive after dropping her off. Since we live in a valley we have to drive over mountains. I had Roger stop at a lookout so I could get a few pictures. This is Fountain Hill that borders Bethlehem. Bergy's Then we took a drive to a place called Wassergass so he could show me his new haunt, Bergy's,  He likes their fat subs,  eggs over easy,  fried potato

Hello dear ones! Yes, I am home! When I left way back in November to travel up to Maine I expected to be gone a couple of months at the most. But stuff happens to aged people and aged pets and old houses, especially on an island in wintertime with no one close by who cares or is able to care if you are dead or alive. Add to that scenario a daughter who cares very much but lives almost 700 miles away. She is trying her best to give her mother some quality and dignity to her remaining years and fulfil a promise she made to her father. Then we have  to add a pandemic, the death of a son/brother as well as the demise of the beloved cat. And lastly, the illness of aged parent who is 93 years old . So, for those of you reading my blog for the first time this is my situation. I am a wife, a mother, a grandmother and a daughter.💖  The only flowers blooming were these growing on a large tree behind the garage in the dog yard. I forget the name of the
