A Few Attic Photos

As promised, I'm sharing a few attic photos. I can't seem to get the entire

space tidied up at the same time so I'm just posting the areas that for the moment aren't
buried in 'stuff'.

Simple Woman's Daybook for October 15th, 2009

FOR TODAY October 15, 2009

Outside my attic window... the trees swaying in the wind on this chilly Autumn day.

I am thinking ... how lucky I am to have this room to myself!

I am thankful for ... my cozy, warm house.

From the kitchen ... looking forward to homemade squash soup for lunch.

I am wearing... jeans, turtleneck sweater and vest - my cold weather 'uniform'.

I am creating ... a tidy room so I can take some pictures to show you.

I am going ... to my knitting group tonight. We will chat, munch on yummy snacks, have a glass of wine and maybe even do some knitting!

I am reading ... a good book, with romance and intrigue. Sorry,I can't remember the name or author right now.

I am hoping... I can take some photos of my crafting space once it's all tidied up.

I am hearing... my clock ticking which means it's quiet in the house which I love.

Around the house... my daughter is working on her computer and dh is making a cup of tea.

One of my favorite things... is being able to putter with no errands to take me away from home.

A few plans for the rest of the week: I'll go to the Farmer's Market tomorrow to buy some fresh vegetable, fall apples and cut flowers. On the weekend, I want to go to the Antique Market.

The dog photo is the picture I am sharing...it was taken on our summer vacation. This 'blues dog' belonged to a street musician who was performing in a town we visited.

Thank you to The Simple Woman's Daybook.

A Couple of New Button Things and a New Header!

Look at this cute yard sale find - a little burlap tote that was already covered in buttons - how cute is that.
And here is my latest cross-stitch project - The Button Tree from The Drawn Thread. Fast to stitch and fun to play with the button arrangement for it.

I love my new header - FREE from The Background Fairy - Thank you, Karen!
