My home was built in 1920, she is showing her age in some rooms. I am 66 and completely understand how she feels! I will be renovating the dining room over the next few weeks. I have stripped the wallpaper off and washed the four walls twice now. Tonight I woke up with my back hurting terribly. My muscles are screaming in pain and I will be up for awhile for them to calm down. Maybe I will relax a couple of days before starting in again. I need to repair cracks and the weak spots in the plaster. I enjoy doing these things myself, but my body says this time we are a bit older and it is rebelling!

My husband and I finished the porch by the end of June, I am so glad it is completed. I have much more to work on in the gardens. It is too hot to work outside in the summer here in Kansas. I will need to be inside to stay cool.

Here we are nearly through summer and it has been such a hot one. It was hard to keep up with my flowers and vegetable gardens. My hens made it through the summer, they produce lovely eggs!

My favorite carry along work bag. It is made from selvage of many fabrics.

A Mondo big bag!

I have been busy with job and my quilting. Halloween decorations are now on all shop shelves. I had to try on hats, many to choose from.
