Can you believe it! Poppy and I are back in business!!! We have our Internet back. Turns out, on top of everything else, our modem was bad so we had to wait until late Monday for UPS to deliver a new one.
Anyhow, that 5 1/2 inches of rain last Thursday was unbelievable. Wish I had pictures to show you. No damage done but the little pond filled so quickly, the water flooded the spillway and flowed over the dam. The chairs on the teeny tiny pier were standing in water up to the top of the seats, and a mountain of leaves, being pushed by the gushing rain water, slammed into the little footbridge so hard, it turned the bridge up on it's side.
Oh well, all is back to normal so...A big Thank You!
Lynn said to me yesterday, mom, when you post again, please thank all your friends for me, and tell them how much I appreciated their comments on that blog post. Lynn said she read and enjoyed each comment. I thank you too. You truly are the best friends ever!
So much to tell you and so little time so I'm going to finish the post started before the Internet went out...
Have been moving things around a bit in the teeny tiny sewing room...
My cousin Patty, you may remember Patty...
Eli was looking a little wild. He was excited that Pat was visiting.
So, it was Pat who gave us that beautiful antique cupboard that sits on our porch...
My heart still skips a beat when I see it and realize it is mine, for keeps!
Well Patty has gifted me with another piece. Oh my goodness, as Lynn would say, "be still my heart"!
Take a look down the hall into the teeny tiny sewing room. It's there on the left...
an old pie safe
Simply love that old timey wooden latch at the top. This gives me more space for fabric too...
and came with yards and yards of beautiful "Holly Hobbie" fabric. "Thank you Patty".
and speaking of Holly Hobbie, my daughter Andee recently gave me this picture...
It's adorable, isn't it? Thank you Andee.
Guess I had better close this and get supper started. Thank you for visiting and I will be around to catch up.
Love,
Henny
