*~*I Love Pretty Petticoats*~*


Petticoat advertisement, 1950s
These are so beautiful you could wear them as skirts. I love pretty girly things; these are so pretty and feminine. I think women where so much more feminine in days gone by, it is my humble opinion that the invention of jeans changed a lot of that! Don't get me wrong jeans have their place in a woman's wardrobe; I just think it is somewhat sad that pretty petticoats for most of us lost their place.

I think I will look for a pattern to make some; no wait a minute - I know I shall.

  What do you think of pretty petticoats? Please leave a message and let me know; I would love to know your thoughts on them!

*~*What Kind Of Windows Do I Look Through?*~*

I saw this today and just thought it was so good I had to share it; it really made me think about how we see things!


A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbor hanging the washing outside. She says, "The laundry is not very clean. She doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap." Her husband looks on, but remains silent. Every time her neighbor hangs her washing to dry, the young woman makes the same comment. A month later, the young woman is surprised to see nice clean washing on the line and says to her husband, "Look she's finally learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this?" The husband replies, "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows." And so it is with life. What we see when watching others depends on the clarity of the window through which we look.

We just took this big guy for a walk I just love him so much. Soxy is so playful and a great walking buddy!

*~*Thursday*~*



Today has gone so fast, I feel like my feet have hardly touched the ground. However, it has been a good day. I have done my pool workout and I have taken Antony to his appointment as well as taking Joshua to the shops; so all is well.
While we were out we had dinner so I had the night off from cooking dinner; not that I mind cooking dinner, I don’t - I rather enjoy it. But not having to cook has left me with time to get a jump start on tomorrow’s house work, so that is good. I have also done some banking, washing, tidying, and given our bed clean sheets. As well, I cleaned both our sofas, so I am a happy Mama and Wife tonight!
So what have you been up to today; I would love to hear!

What are you up to today? Leave me a message and tell me. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Verse for the day-Isaiah 1:18
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

*~*No Face Book For A Month*~*


 Today I am starting a new experiment. I am unplugging from Face Book for one month, 13/8 – 13/9 to see how having no Face Book impacts my life. I am going to take photos of my home and garden, make a note of things we do as a family, finish some projects in the home, sewing, knitting, quilting, baking......... I will record my weight and exercise and come back with the results on the 13th of September. I am doing this because I want to find out what life will be like without it!!! I know, I am nuts!

WILL I SURVIVE?
