Savor

Vintage Frye Boots

I’m feeling exhilirated !   The desperate hot ( it’s never going to cool off has feeling) has finally come to a semi-halt here in the DFW metroplex with the cooling breezes and rain that came in late yesterday afternoon.. Temps have dropped and hearts are skipping a beat... . Fall....Fall...Fall..


I promised myself I would sit on the porch this am- SAVOR the moments that
remind me of my favorite season- you guessed it,  yes Ma’am - FALL..
At this moment I am still in my jammies, sipping a warm vanilla caramel coffee
and listening to he rain as it warms my heart.

Is anyone else excited ?  I thought so. . . .  And, a trip to Roundtop soon will just fill my heart to the brim !  Yeepie.. a longing for new inspiration has been tugging at me. So I dove right in, made a reservation and asked Aubrie to join me & Anyone who has gone knows I didn’t have to even twist her hair. .  little alone her arm.

With the return of pumpkins at local specialty stores this week in Fort Worth and spiced latte at coffee shops across America, I think we can all relax and get our boots out now !!    Happy Fall.. 

I promise to snap some wonderful moments at Roundtop Antiques Faire and
SHARE soon.

Till next time-

A little Dusty


I feel a little dry & dusty. If truth be told.. maybe a little like this.
 Maybe kin to that huge rolling tumbleweed we all have seen
in our favorite Western...

 It's been a little over 7 months since I lost My Darling
and I am still trying to find my "new normal".  This past holiday was a little harder
than some others have been- a slower restful day watching a marathon all day,
but to be honest I just thought all day about how nice it would have been if
he was here.  He should have been asking for munchies all day :) Asking if I
could possibly make brownies, and do we have Bluebell- Vanilla ?
He should have been grumbling about getting back to work the next day . . .
 He should have been holding me close as the day ended.

 When you lose someone close to you- someone you had hopes and dreams with,
it simply drains the life out of you as well. Nothing holds the joy as it did before.
Life goes on- and slowly but surely you start to dream again. . . He would want
that for me .  I feel the need for permission. I'm on my own, so I am going to make
an executive decision and tell myself  YES.
As my old happy self slowly emerges, thoughts of working again dance thru my
head. I realize that maybe it's time to imerse my self. Well, OK- maybe just wade my
feet.  Maybe even start blogging again.

I have missed putting down my thoughts... & missed your comments. Now to the question
of the hour- What is it that you would like to see ?  Or talk about ?
What have I missed in the last 7 + months ?
Slowly, but surely I am beginning to work again- even thinking about revamping
my website some and adding some newer, more "designer " products in with the True
 Vintage and Vintage style  product we now carry.
Lots of wonderful new fabrics, furniture & accessories at Dallas Market this
week.. maybe I will head over tomorrow and see for myself.

And, maybe just maybe you would like to see some of those products and come
up with a new vignette somewhere in your home.

Till next time-

        busy girl.. &  I am missing her.
