Good morning. It was hot walking yesterday morning. I colored my hair and tried to do as little as possible. I did walk over to Lucys to give her tomatoes and chile peppers. My sister has two of my mom’s sewing machines and decided to donate one -The Viking- so I told her i would ask Jamie if she wanted another one (Ricks step sister) although she must have at least 6. She said yes. Muriel brought it over yesterday and Jamie will come tomorrow morning for it. Then I will take pictures of it. The house is so hot… Read more »

Looks like your mom made that. I love it. I have made those for my machines in the past.

I am not sure if she did or not. She had a wooden sewing cabinet the machine fit into but my sister is keeping that.

Hi Ardy
Beautiful sewing machine cover. What a special sewing machine for Jamie. Like Jenn said Vintage Viking sewing machines are quite a treasure 💝

I wonder what she will do with 6? sounds like she likes collecting them, maybe different kinds..I have one that is never used…not sure I remember how to thread it

Oh WOW Ardy, a Vintage Viking sewing machine is a treasure. You can’t break them, I would love to have one, Jamie is very lucky to have your mom’s. No way she would say no to that. The new ones today plastic and the computerized ones hardly last 2 years.
You sure are having hot weather now, I would lay low too. 😟

Good morning,

A sunny Sunday, 61 going up to 80 with a light breeze.

We went for a drive yesterday planning to take a walk out to the Breakwater Lighthouse but the parking lot was full by mid-morning. We will have to go back earlier another day, to hope to get a space. We stopped for a haddock basket on the way home, it was very good.

The grass is really tall we are going to mow and Denny will weed whack.
Have a blessed Sunday.💕

Good Sunday morning. Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam. Up at 6-00 this morning and what a beautiful morning it is. Not a cloud in the sky and just a gentle breeze for a change. A high of 72F today and staying in the mid 70F range for the rest of the week and not much rain forecast either. Just back from taking the old girl on her Sunday run, paper bought on the way. Topped up the bird baths it seems the resident Seagull has taken a liking to it for a paddle at times.lol. That is my finger… Read more »

Good morning Ice,

What a beautiful sunny warm day you are having. 😊 I hope you get to have your dinner outside under your umbrella, I think you say Brolly?
How funny the Seagull likes to ‘dance’ in the birdbath. Nature can be so entertaining.🤗

Jenn, my heart is with you 💔 Danny’s personality was a force to be reckoned with {{HUGS}} I’ll never be able to look at a napkin/paper towel without seeing his nose in my purse.🤗

Good Morning! Sunny, humid and 76 going up to 94. Craig left at 7:40 AM to meet his brother Michael at their mom’s house to do lawn work for her she’s no longer capable of doing herself without risking falling and injuring herself. After I finish eating my breakfast I need to go to PetSmart to pickup an order of canned food for Matcha and Chai. On the way home I plan to stop at Aldi for a few things. It’s so nice to be able to see through to our backdoor neighbors yards since Craig completed his 16 hours… Read more »

Good morning, A deafening quiet here without our boy. Doesn’t seem real but thankful we have each other to talk with and share our aching hearts. I’m looking at his toy box beside me though we moved his bed and pillows out to the shed. I talked to sis Deena last night and she said the same thing happened with her Jack Russel, Scooter, he had seizures for a week and she got to the vet and they said he had a brain tumor. She had recently lost her husband and she said it was so horrible to be alone… Read more »

Hi Jenn
I have to tell you I have thought about you since i messaged you yesterday morning. It was and is just so shocking when it is so sudden.
It sure does make a huge void in your lives.
Good luck to your son Gabe running today.
