Loved reading this, seeing Noah and looking at your books. I now go to garage sales every Friday and get books for .25-.50cents. Loved seeing the fabric on your stool-very chic. Have a wonderful weekend and now I'm going to read your past posts that I didn't get.<br />Hugs, NoreenNanaNor'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608980502430055753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776767262067674902.post-47030328971249529982011-06-10T10:57:38.352-07:002011-06-10T10:57:38.352-07:00I go to the library all the time...it's always...I go to the library all the time...it's always been one of my favorite places.

Did you ever see Reminisce magazine? It comes out every other month, and then they have Reminisce Extra in the other months. It is packed full of nostalgia. I have had a subscription since I was a teenager (I know, I know - but I have an old soul and I adore this magazine). I think they're who published the farm tales book you have up there....<br />I had to take a minute after you said you never read Anne of Green Gables. I loved that book so much I bought the whole series. Each one is so delightful :)Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170032696624433205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776767262067674902.post-12216397073121116032011-06-10T07:54:31.128-07:002011-06-10T07:54:31.128-07:00What a lucky little boy!

I have a feeling you will have that outdoor hanging bed soon. Can you have it ready for me by September when I get there? Great score on the books. The gardening one would be so much fun to have. Noah looks so precious, sorry he didn't share the chocolate, can't say I blame him though. Love the new cover on the stool, the fabric is perfect against the black legs. Wish I knew your friends were here in Sun City, less than a mile from me! I would have loved to have met them. Anyway, did you notice that we bloggers are all friendless again?

Soo many thoughts I had while readi...Good Morning! Soo many thoughts I had while reading this post...hope I don't forget anything, haha. First, no one could be a bigger fan of the library than me! I love it. Haven't been in a few years, but felt like when my kids were growing up we lived there. I don't think my boys liked to admit that they loved it too (but they sure did!) but Mel was as open as I was. We read the entire series of Anne of Green Gables when she was about 12 years old. We'd laid outside by the pool that summer and took turns reading aloud to each other. I never hear about those books without thinking of that time in my life even though I had already read them as a young girl myself. That summer my hubby surprised us by buying the whole series of tapes of it. Oh how we loved those. Watched them over and over. And now I watch them with my granddaughters. Just the perfect entertainment. I know you will enjoy reading those books. As for the serger I think if you did alot of garment sewing you would use it a lot, but I don't know anything about quilting, or really crafty or household sewing so I don't know. I always wanted to get ones YEARS ago, but never did. Now I don't know if I would use it enough. Or if I could figure it out on my own (who am I kidding, I KNOW I couldn't, haha) but if someone GAVE it to me I'd probably try. And finally, yes I too am just loving this weather though it seems a little too over cast this morning. But the coolness just can't be beat. Seems like the rest of the country is boiling. I know our time will come so I am enjoying this. Have a GREAT week-end Kris! OH, I almost forgot (see I knew I would) we had a hammock in the mountains where we had a cabin when I was growing up. HOW I loved that thing. I would sooo love to crawl back into today....GET ONE, you'd never regret it...OK, that's finally it for now... : )Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09836655708421528876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776767262067674902.post-85642037310384874202011-06-10T04:29:53.279-07:002011-06-10T04:29:53.279-07:00I am also a library fan.

The hardest part is the learning curve, but once you master it, it makes things go so much faster and gives you the finished seam.

I loved it but it hasn't worked for a few years. I really need to take it in but just don't think about it. I loved the way it finished off my outfits. I also used it to finish off the edges of homemade table cloths and napkins. Threading it is a bit tricky. You REALLY have to know what you're doing.Laurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16113183271850730416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776767262067674902.post-52403932142445107292011-06-09T21:08:03.762-07:002011-06-09T21:08:03.762-07:00See, I knew it was going to be a popular DVD this ...See, I knew it was going to be a popular DVD this summer. Glad to hear you are on reserve. But, with such lovely weather outside there, it will be tough to come in. <br /><br />Oh, please do let me know how that serger goes. I got one from my Mom a few years back that has yet to come out of the box. I really need to go take a lesson some where. That's the question WHERE? <br /><br />Looks like another lovely fun laugh filled day with the kids.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13721336502963839799noreply@blogger.com
