Some mumblings



And, because everyone likes a picture....


Another entry from the autograph book; this one dated Feb. 24, 1938...

Those who love gardens seem to have such simple needs -
Good earth, fair wind, and sun and rain,
Tools, plants and seeds.
Those who love houses seem to find
The joy that springs
From chintz and oak, and pots and pans,
and homely things.
Those who love life need only ask
the sky above,
a roof, a bed, and daily bread
and lasting love.

    Hope the storm misses you. Went way north of me, thankfully.

  3. Well, we've had ice pellets and are waiting for the freezing rain, so I expect you've had the pellets, too. Thanks for the mumbles, and have a Happy Easter.

  4. I just read that it's a fact that women who carry a few extra pounds live longer than the men who comment on them. Have a great weekend

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
