Today's Horoscope said; It's fine to have plenty of ideas,but if you don't follow through with at least
some of them, the time spent mulling over them will be a waste.
That couldn't be more right for me. I have a lot of grand ideas but follow through seems to be
my down fall.
How are you with follow through?
I got a call from the library they were able to find a Gladys Taber book I wanted.
I love reading it she was the first Martha Stewart. Her writing is a joy I think this book was first published in 1937 this is a reprint in 1984. She is a city New Yorker and bought an old farm house with her sister in Connecticut.
Downton Abbey book had just come in.
Mary's tiara was on loan and had a special person who followed it around the set.
The tiara is worth 1,936,068.00in us dollars yikes. We are having quite the winds today and into
tonight. It is very cold I am just praying that the power stays on. I live in N.H but watch The Vermont public network, they are
having a live chat during and after the season ending of Downton Abbey should be fun. If I still have power.
My daughter thrifted this wonderful April Cornell table cloth
since it didn't fit her table I got it for the porch or the table in the family room.

I baby sat with Miss B Thur and Friday oh what fun we had we went for a walk and played
tea party, we went thrifting,we splashed in puddles in our boots. I just had a ball with her. My daughter called and said she was really
upset that G didn't come to play on Saturday. (So was G)

A home in the country is no place for the idle. For it takes you over. Stillmeadow has been a dictator for all these years. The House demands whatever it feels like and ours not to question why, ours
but to do and die.

I love Gladys Tabor books, I have read several. Would love to do the same. Sounds like a wonderful time with Ms.B., so good you got to do that.
I actually can't remember the last time I read my horoscope, but this one you have quoted seems like it might fit me.:-)
It has been a cold day here with really breezy winds. We, of course, are not accustomed to the cold temperatures you are having.
It sounds like a good time with Miss B! Also, that's a beautiful tablecloth! Lucky!
I hope you keep your electricity!
Lovely post,will have to try to find that book.My ideas have been abundant but sadly the follow through sadly lacking of late.Praying that your power stays on.Hugs,Jen
Enjoyed catching up with your posts. Glad you got to spend time with your granddaughter - the most fun of all! Love the tablecloth.
You and I have more in common than you know. I'm in the same situation...I have lot's and lot's of ideas but not so good on the follow-through. It sounds like a wonderful time you had with Miss B. Those are just the best times ever.
Yes, this wind is crazy. Same here.
I bet you had a wonderful time with Miss B. Little Jack came over and we babysat. Aren't grandbabies the best and happiest moments!!! Cheri
I read my horoscope and always wonder if I'm really a Pisces since it never "fits." Then I read all the others and pick out a month I really want to be born in! Downton Abbey was sooooo gooood...sooooo sad...sooooo can't wait until season 4 even if it means it will be winter by then. Sounds like you had a fun time with your Grandbaby! Now that is a good day!
So glad I read this post, didn't know who Gladys Tabor was although I've heard her name, just not about her. I also learned that Mary's tiara is worth a small fortune (had no clue about that either).
hi cathy! glad all is well with you, dave and the family! i love fresh bread and cant wait to try this! cant be much easier!! yum!
enjoy your day...
