I think we are all constantly moving, changing, puttering, floating, and perhaps even occasionally feel as if we are sinking. y.i.k.e.s Okay, well at least I know that I am. (not sinking,  but always growing, and changing) …..♡ Yesterday, my husband “surprised” me with … Read the full blog post

(Grin) of course that was the fun part of my weekend too. The work … Read the full blog post

Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ Happy Monday! How was your weekend….hope it was beyond wonderful! There’s a clothesline on the outside of our cottage.  It is on the side deck. I love it.  We put it up years ago, when we first moved here. Of course, it wasn’t used for drying clothes.  I sort of used it for decorating. Of course. However, over the years, I’ve become very fond of it…in an old fashiony kind of way. My Grandmother (nana) dried all … Read the full blog post
