My Opinion Counts

Joann Fabric has the most adorable fall and Christmas holiday decorations right now. They are 50% off the regular price and that makes some of them $5.00! I could have been in real trouble if I had let myself buy everything I thought was cute.

I spent my allowance for a year buying candles earlier in the day. I had seen a candle company on previous visits to Ohio. This time I stopped. I discovered that this place handles my favorite cake candles. I felt like I'd died and gone to heaven! I didn't buy as many candles as I would have liked but I bought enough!

I have discovered that traveling wears me out. I could barely keep my eyes open while driving this afternoon. Do you recall seeing those lines along the side of the road that make a loud noise when you go off the road? They are there for a purpose. They make a loud noise so that when you fall asleep and start to veer off the road the noise will wake you up and get you back on track. I was miserably sleepy. I am grateful that those lines woke me up.

My nephew and his wife had a birthday party in honor of their little girl who turned one last Friday. We went to Tennessee to help them celebrate. It was a wonderful party. My nephew and his father inlaw have built a magnificent playhouse. It is made of logs. It looks like something I could live in on a lake. It has a loft and everything.

Mylie received many presents. Many were kitchen items that she can use in her playhouse. She received a new table and four chairs that are so cute. She also received many dish sets, pots and pans and play food. She will have many hours of fun with her new toys.

Mylie was so cute with each baby doll she received. She wouldn't give up any. She had to hold them all. She is adorable.

Mylie's mommy made a cute birthday cake for the celebration. It was cupcakes that were arranged on tiers. The tier arrangement made it look like it was a full cake. She had ribbons streaming down the sides of the tiers. The cupcakes were frosted in beautiful bright colors. The frosting turned our tongues and teeth blue and green. It was hilarious to see all of us grownups with colored tongues.

The weather was beautiful and there were only a few bees. In Indiana there would have been bees everywhere. A slight breeze kept us all cool and we enjoyed catching up on what was new with everyone.

We passed by a park on our way to Tennessee. I kept mulling the name over in my mind. I finally asked Greg to Google the name, Justin Wilson. Sure enough! He was the famous Louisiana chef we had watched on tv a hundred times. I loved to listen to him talk. He said words in a humorous way. Words like onion were pronounced unyum. He was a well loved tv entertainer. I had no idea there was a park in Tennessee named for him. I think that it is so nice to have honored him that way.

We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation in North Carolina. I would love to work with Coastal Carolina Properties to find Wilmington NC real estate. They are not your typical real estate company. They work with individual buyers to find homes that fit their individual needs. The professionalism shown by this company is the reason they have been in business for many years. They are dedicated to their client and the area of Wilmington. They also help clients sell property. When you are ready to buy or sell your home in Wilmington, let Coastal Carolina Properties show you why they are the best. There is a reason that real estate sales are booming in their area when they are in a slump all over the nation.

Cincinnati is a quilter's dream. We Googled quilt shops and came up with eleven! While Greg was working today, Mom and decided to visit a few quilt shops in the area. My sister Grace surprised us and drove from Tennessee to help us find the shops. We had no idea where anything was in Cincinnati so we bought a map. It is hard to use a map when you don't have the slightest inkling of where you are headed. We managed to make it to two shops.

One shop was farther than we expencted. We had five minutes to look in that shop. The sales clerk was very nice and told us to take our time. We did look a bit longer than five minutes but we didn't want to impose. We bought quite a bit of material, thread and books there. I'm sure the sale made her happy.

I wish we had time to visit all the shops on our list. Both of the shops we visited were very nice and each a bit different in its own respect. The one shop gave classes. I wish there were a shop with classes close to my house.
