"Hopefully Tomorrow".....

Good Morning Friends, I am feeling very patriotic....Just filled out my ballot, along with my daughter & husband,... & am off to drop them off.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a turning point in this country.

Hopefully tomorrow real change will begin.

Hopefully tomorrow America will soon be on the road to recovery.

God bless America!

"November".....

Good Morning Friends! Thank you so much for stopping by.... & let me say "Happy November" to you all!....October was a lovely month here at our house, but a month that was so full of commitments, activities, birthdays & such that it seemed I was continually preparing for the next event!?....I know many of you have times like that as well,...& even though you enjoy it all, it is a bit difficult to catch your breath!
   So needless to say, I am tickled pink to welcome in November.....for me a month of busy, but slightly calmer weeks ahead.....or at least that is what I am hoping for!....Afterall,...we all know how quickly "nothing planned" evolves into " too much"!
   Off to cleaning up the remnants of Halloween & then onto a quietly busy day of pillow making.
    Wishing you all a lovely beginning to November.....Your friend, Heidi XO
