Charlie and I are at our little lake place just waiting for the warm weather to come to the area. We bought a new 12 foot wide trailer last fall and want to go out side and sit in the sunshine<br />
I have planted a few flowers around the pond but have not been able to go out and enjoy them. All right I have talked enough about the weather, all the complaining will not help so Sharon just shut up and enjoy what you have. I had a good Mothers day with my girls, went out to lunch and bought flowers for the garden. Just wanted to wish every one a happy and warm May. <br />
PS...Just bought the <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="-moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous; -moz-background-origin: padding; background: yellow none repeat scroll 0% 0%;">Picnik</span> extras and will have fun blogging again, so please come back and visit me often.<br />
Till another time<br />

<span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: 130%;">As you can see from the pictures I like old family pictures, that is one of my favorite things to decorate with when you want the country cottage look. Look in the boxes of old pictures you have and get some old family pictures out and decorate with them. You can clean the closet and decorate to.</span><br />

It is the day 98 years ago that my wonderful mother was born. And what a lovely lady she was, beautiful on the inside and out. She was my best friend and my mentor, she is so very much missed today and always. I love you so much.<br />
<br />
You have always been my strength the rock on which I stand. Over the years I have gained so much wisdom I was always guided by your gentle hand<br />

All the pictures are family treasures, the three children are Charlies dad and two sisters at there conformation.. I love my pretty lady checking her self out in a mirror. I put a few silk roses on my lamp to make the seting look more Victorian. I also added lace to the bottom of the shade to make the look I wanted. Please come back soon and visit me and my little cottage<br />

I know why it has been so long for Charlie and me, usually we spend a month or two or three in Florida. It is the first winter in twenty years we have stayed in Ohio the whole winter. Charlie is taking chemo and a test drug for lung cancer so we are here for the whole season. I hope every one up north will think spring with me.<br />
<br />
I am in the house way to much and looking at the same thing every day, I now know why people say they have cabin fever because this year I caught it to. As I sit around and look at the same thing over and over I think just what could I do to change a few things, I can not move the furniture because there is only one way in my long dining and living room for the furniture to sit..<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/S4LsRaGq4RI/AAAAAAAAEo4/kgm230jFZAg/s1600-h/DSC02609.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/S4LsRaGq4RI/AAAAAAAAEo4/kgm230jFZAg/s400/DSC02609.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/S4Luvdk37xI/AAAAAAAAEpA/PTulVtoi1bo/s1600-h/DSC03542.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/S4Luvdk37xI/AAAAAAAAEpA/PTulVtoi1bo/s400/DSC03542.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/S4LyTcE-OBI/AAAAAAAAEpI/0rUQ0K1fs7I/s1600-h/DSC03546.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/S4LyTcE-OBI/AAAAAAAAEpI/0rUQ0K1fs7I/s400/DSC03546.JPG" width="400" /></a> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div>But I am going to change every thing else I can. As you can see in the picture above there is just so much I can do, you can see the color red and pictures of roses every where in my home. I can not move the furniture or change all of the colors but I can get the paint brush out, move some pictures, change the drapes and do a few things here and there to change the look. Please come back to see the before and after pictures of my little cabin where I caught the bad winter fever.<br />
Love ya, Sharon<br />

I only have one glass now but it a true treasure. That is why it is under glass at my cottage. I only have a few cloches now to show but I sure have a lot of wonderful ideas now that I have been at Marty's home and joined in to her party.<br />
Hugs, Sharon K<br />

The decorating books always tell us to surround our self with the things that we love, if you walk through my home you would think I love every thing. Any thing that is old, vintage, a family hand me down , that special treasure I found at the thrift store.or that special friend that knows me well and finds the perfect gift. You will find it just siting around waiting for the once a week feather dusting. I will share just a few of my treasures today. <br />

Through the years I have collected many old family items that are full of memories that I would like to share. Of course I will have a few pictures of family and friends scattered here and there and a picture of Sir Winston you will find among the pages of my life. <br />
I have been truly blessed through the years but in November of last year my husband Charlie was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and what I though was normal every day life has changed.for us. I would like to share just a little of the journey we are on in hope that it may help others. My blog will be up beat because that is the way we are living our life on a daily basis. Charlie's attitude is wonderful and that helps us both cope with learning all about cancer, chemo, hair loss and all that goes along with the deseas. I also feel that by thinking about my blog and taking pictures to share with you will help me the care giver to think about some something other then the cancer. So that is how it is now -- -- and I can share with you how thing were once upon a time. <br />
I love pictures of roses which will be scattered among the pages and also pictures of children of yesterday. I hope to share my journey with you, laugh with you and get to know all of you. Thank you for the visit and I hope to have you read my story which will begin with Once Upon A time<br />
Love to all, Sharon K<br />
