Happy Valentine’s Day

Posted on by Vintage Chic

Valentines Day is for sharing your love with the people you care about the most.  I feel that I share my love with these certain someones all year long in various ways.  I hope they all know how much they are loved, but you are never sure if they “REALLY” know you love them.  I love them the best I know how and I love them all in different ways depending on who they are.  I have come to the conclusion that as I grow older, there are less people I truley love and the ones I love, I love much deeper and love them for much different reasons than I did years ago.  There are so many different kinds of Love and it’s a blessing to have all of the feelings each one brings.  I am a Daughter, a Mother, a Fiance’, a Grandmother and many other things and with all these hats, come so many chances to LOVE.  I hope Valentines Day finds you with lots of LOVE to give and to receive!  HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!!

Pending Snow

Posted on by Vintage Chic

Today is supposed to be a big snow storm but so far it seems to be mostly rainy type snow flakes.  We are to be getting 10-15 inches and I know as a life time New Englander I should be used to it, but I am not.  I hate the cold it brings and the dirty slush we have after the initial pretty white covered ground.  Spring!  Spring is what I am looking for.  I want to hear the birds chirping from the bird houses in my yard in the early morning before I have to get out of bed.  Right now you can only look out the window and wonder, how much are we actually going to get, when will it suddenly switch to a blizzard condition, and when will it stop?  Oh New England weather, so unpredicable & fun!

My Happiness

Posted on by Vintage Chic
Everyday is an adventure around here between the three granddaughters, the Golden Retriever, Sophie, my own 4 kids & my work!  The best part of my day is seeing the smiles on the kids faces!  On the weekdays Sophie hangs out with me while I work at home.  She sleeps most of the day or is running around like a nut!  When it’s time for the girls to get home from school, all I have to do is say “The bus is coming, and off Sophie goes to stare out the window looking for the bus to appear!  Some days Jill is here so Sophie gets some special belly rubs while we wait for the bus!  I think Sophie is more spoiled than the granddaughters!
I also think my grown kids think I love the dog more than them!  I just think I spoiled them as much as was possible as a single working Mom & now I can spoil the girls & Sophie!

A few months ago I posted a FREE tv online on Craig’s List and a nice
guy came & picked it up.
Today he drove by and stopped and plowed our
drive way for FREE!
SWEET! Thanks!
