Blogging reminds me of receiving visitors
and returning calls during Victorian times.
You visit me and leave a comment
and then I visit you and do the same.
But I fear, I am soo behind in my return calls-a total breech in "calling etiquette".
Today the wind is blowing -(AGAIN)-
so I will not be able to paint
so hopefully I can get caught up and return the graciousness!
But until then...
Thank you for all of your sweet comments,
especially about our home
I do know that I am blessed.
Blessed to live in an area of the country where housing is affordable,
and to have found this gem before real estate prices went crazy,
I am especially blessed to have a husband
who shares this love of old houses with me
and is not afraid to work or jump in to do new things...
without him -I'd be in town somewhere-
he really does make my ideas happen!
Thanks, dear!
Have a great day!
Rene'!
ReplyDeleteThat's it...that really is what blogging seems to be all about. And how I love those Victorian times...could have lived during that day...just with modern conviencese tho...lol.

Dear Rene',
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! I love the Victorian times and all their wonderful traditions and their excellent manners! The calling cards you shared are just beautiful! I do not understand why our culture thinks of Victorian as a bad thing. I think it comes from a distorted view of history. From what I have read the Victorians were happy and they delighted in their home life, honored marriage and adored their children. Do you ever visit Lady Lydia? She has a very encouraging blog and has written about the Victorians in some of her posts. You can find here at http://homeliving.blogspot.com/
You and your dear sweet husband make a handsome couple! I know you are thankful and blessed to have him as he is you!
The Lord bless you and your family!

Hugs, Kelly
You have a sweet husband, lovely home and an award! Rene', I sent you an award you can accept at my blog!
ReplyDeleteI'm behind on visits and leaving sweet thoughts too. I find one thing I cherish in this blogland is the graciousness of all the women. Lots of grace and kindness.
ReplyDeleteThe winds are blowing in my neck of the woods too.!

ReplyDeleteDear Rene, Thank you for your thoughts and prayers and kind comments left at Sea Cottage over this weekend. It is a beautiful time. My daughter is also praying about 'what's next'. She's in no hurry to leave home. She will still be studying here at home, maybe taking a few classes at the local jr. College. But she really wants to go to the House of Prayer in Kansas City for a worship internship. She has to wait till she is 18 to do that. No rush, no hurry, no worries, no pressure...it is a good thing to wait on the LORD. Bless your Daughter for doing so.
