Aug. LK stamp & we are moving out...

First of all, a huge thank you to each and everyone of you for all the lovely comments on our anniversary. I really appreciate them all and sure helps me a lot as hubby being away...(works in Spain)!

I've finished the August block of Lizzie Kate stamp before the weekend but always forget to take a picture to share so this afternoon while it was still bright and sunny i took my chance and also a few pics outside. ((click on all pictures to enlarge))

What lovely surprises came in recently....Margaret, Ellen, Sue, thank you so much. I am truly humbled by your generosity!


After days of winds and rain, today is bright and sunny. Looks and feels like summer and expected for a couple of days. Love the colors of the sedum...seems i have lots of them on my garden.



I've started bringing boxes at the rented house since monday and we could have stayed or sleep over there too since monday but i had "Zumba" last monday evening and this evening been to Grace parent's info night and that lasted till 9:30pm. I think they won't be happy all alone on a strange house for the first evenings. So tomorrow(wednesday), we are going over. So i could start to remove and wash all the curtains and try to pack everything ready to be transferred when hubby gets home. Have to try and remove the carpets and other things from the attic.

No computer at the rented house so i will check my mails on daytime when i am here at work, so not much time as ussually i am online in the evening. When hubby gets home he will try to fix one over there as this one will have to be out.

I hope everyone's having a wonderful week!!

I know how you feel with moving - we moved house in august while Tel was home. It seems to get worse before it gets better but its all worth it now.
