This part of my blog is all about the things I collect or the things I make myself. I love so many things, I paint and draw and want to learn oils and pastels. I knit and crochet but want to learn tatting. I embroider and can turn my hand to most things given a chance. So much still to learn and do. I live in hope of some day reading all my books, learning all I want to learn and now I am learning to blog. You will often find my original poems, poor as they are I offer them here. I also appreciate other people art and will feature things I find that I have enjoyed. That includes pictures of fairies and fantasy or maybe just anything beautiful.
I try to use my own photo's as much as possible, sometimes I borrow from the web. If I inadvertently use your picture without giving credit, please do let me know and I will either credit or remove it, I hope you will do the same with mine.
If you wish to leave comments on my blog you can do that by joining google if you do not have a blog yourself, please comment if you can I appreciate that.

Front Porch for Autumn.....................

It was another hot day, in the upper 70s and because it rained it was also humid. Bleh!!!!! I went outside to do a few things but it was too yucky for me, my hair is wet and itches now. I dug up a Hosta that was in the way of the path to the veggie garden. I then stepped in the hole and fell over, scraped my knee and hit my ribs and hand but I am OK. Just getting clumsy in my old age. I feel it now, the age that is. I am not as steady as I once was and I suppose a lot of that is due to my vision. Ah well. I also got the front porch changed around.'

We do not celebrate Halloween but I do love Fall decor.

We were going to redo the front porch this year but that did not happen. We decided to pay as we go rather than run up a large bill again. I just paid off my Pay Pal and do not want it up there again. So, the porch is not too pretty right now. Still this does brighten things up.

I really like that wreath..........I have one out back as well. Also one under the trellis.

I like the Pumpkins, celebrate Harvest Festival and remember times gone by. Do you like my Crow?
Fake Mums instead of real ones. Saves some money there, we are poor folks now.

I did buy some pretty Mum's for Alex though and went out today to tidy up for her birthday. She would have been 29 thats hard to believe

So another year goes by missing her but she will stay forever young and beautiful in our memories. She would like that.
