I noticed you darkened your front--thank you! xoxo <br />I'm sad I can't make such cute clothes for my granddaughters! Fortunately, my daughter discovered a thrift store that sells second hand adorable outfits very inexpensively--so much so that the fabric would clost more if I wanted to make it. My daughter-in-law has so many friends that have had daughters that she has enough hand me downs from them to last E for years! It's nice to recycle children's clothes as they outgrow everything so quickly. <br /><br />Glad John is feeling better!

I don't think I've seen them around here. It may be too darn hot or maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.<br />You are whipping things up in your sewing room like nobody's business. These little blouses are so sweet. I also like the rack they are hanging on. Such a pretty picture.<br />I had to smile about your habit of watching Everbody Loves Raymond. I watch it almost every night despite the fact that I've seen each episode many times. It still makes me LOL. Classic comedy, IMO. Kind of like I Love Lucy.Happy@Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748146424809856063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-41539165687191610052015-06-25T09:29:53.616-04:002015-06-25T09:29:53.616-04:00A fun and interesting post Vee.

It's nice to see the sun but the wind is blowing cool here which is unpleasant to me. I'll have to find a sheltered spot on the deck to get warmed up! No coffee or tea for me from Murray in the morning. He's up and getting his own breakfast before he goes to work and I take mine at my leisure. lol Have a great day and enjoy the sunshine.Pamela Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071092617682650349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-16682121544841106002015-06-25T00:57:06.245-04:002015-06-25T00:57:06.245-04:00It's a wonderful life!

Up at 7...fresh fruit from the garden (with yogurt and granola) for breakfast on the patio. He heads off to the farm to work...I head to the gym to work-out. Home to make raspberry ripple ice-cream pies for the freezer. Lunch on the front porch with Elmer. Aternoon spent catching up in the office. Dinner on the front porch. This evening Emme and Spencer came over to make raspberry jam...and play Uno Attack. Then coffee and dessert in the kitchen with hubby. Now it's time to watch the news before retiring for the day. Did I mention that the sun shone today...as it does every day? :) Oh...and I fed the birds...since I have no cats or dogs. <br /><br />Judy https://www.blogger.com/profile/00929685771427155673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-76818917157033836802015-06-25T00:07:28.784-04:002015-06-25T00:07:28.784-04:00How did I almost miss this?

Happy to hear that John is feeling some better. Like you, I have always been an early riser and have been known to go to bed at 9!!! John and I are home-bodies and just enjoy our simple life. We've been told often that we are boring! I sure love your flowers; glad you are enjoying sun for a change. We actually need rain here. So nice visiting with you.
