Lately I have been finding it harder and harder to find the time to write.  I will get something started only to leave it unfinished.  By the time I pick it up again I have lost my train of thought!  So much for menopause!  lol  At any rate I felt the need to write to you all and let you know how life is here along our beautiful coast.

I keep our granddaughter 2 to 3 days a week.  This requires me to leave the house by 7 am in order to get to Leland by 7:45.  Most mornings I make it on time by God forbid if there is an accident somewhere.  Since there is only one way in and out around here there is no plan B!  lol  I love keeping Ella Claire and I can tell she knows me now!  Her little face just lights up and smiles when she sees me.  Such a sweet baby and so good!  Never were any of mine that good.  Of course we all know grandchildren are the best and most perfect right????  lol

We married off the last of our daughters this past weekend.  Such a beautiful wedding it was too!  Simple, elegant and very sweet, just perfect by my daughters standards.  She did everything herself!  All the decorations, flowers, everything!  I am so proud of her!  Can hardly wait til Keith Ketchem finishes the pics too!  You can go to Keithketchem.com and enter Client password Dorre to see a sample of the pics when he releases them.  I'm sure there is bound to be one of me dancing like a fool but who cares!  We were having a wonderful time!  lol

Found us a beautiful house that I think I would die to own but alas we must sell our current home in order to buy that one.  I'm sure by the time this one sells that one will be gone.  Isn't that the way it always works out???  lol  Oh well, who knows maybe this one will sell quickly??!!

I've been working and sewing up a storm since Ella Claire was born.  There are two local stores that I provide hand goods for sale.  I make all baby items, place mats, runners, Christmas stuff, you name it I make it!  I also make purses and handbags.  So if you get a chance and find yourself in Hampstead, stop by Carla's Too or Miss Carla's Antiques.  And let me know what you think!  I could use some feedback!  lol

Well folks, it's off to bed for me!  I have a delivery to make in the morning.  Got a batch of fall runners to deliver just in time for Thanksgiving.  Next project is Christmas Stockings!  xoxo
