Fall is almost here

Hello
Well it is almost fall time and I just love it. I love the temps. the starting of the holiday seasons and also I love the smell of fireplaces going, leaves changing and the full look of Fall Decorations.
     When Sept. comes and then Oct. I know we are getting close to my favorite Holiday that is Christmas. I love the baking, cooking putting the trees up and decorating. I don't like to shop so I try all year around buying items I think my family members would like. I have 3 children and 5 grandchildren and I buy for all. Plus my sister and her family and my mom. Yup my mom who is 97 this month. We have been blessed to have her for so long.
      I try to buy things that they can use but sometimes I do go overboard and buy items which I could have left in the store. Oh Well  I love to do things like that. I do spend too much and each year I keep saying I am going to stop but I never do. I guess I will at some time in my life, maybe this year who knows I don't but we shall see.
     I don't do shows anymore so I don't have that extra money coming in so it could be this year.

     I did get my grand-daughter Katie a little Yorkie Puppy but Grammie is watching it till she gets her own place. First the job then the apt. LOL. She did graduate from college with honors and is working part-time but needs a full time job to live on her own. soon we hope.
Sophie her little yorkie is safe with us till then. We may just keep her if she doesn't come soon. No just kidding I have two of my own, another one is just too much to handle.
     I have been changing my whole house around. New paint, getting rid of so much stuff. I have a garage full of things to sell just haven't had the time to do it yet. My home now is much easier to keep clean because I really took so much stuff out. We restained the outside of the house as well. It looks great. Now doing the basement, I hate this part. Basements are not my favorite place to clean, work in or do anything but it needed some work so we broke down and are really fixing it up. Gosh so many projects so little time.
     I am looking for a cleaning lady to come in twice a month to help with the cleaning. I am  becoming an old lady (LOL) and I can't do all by myself. If anyone in Y-town or close to it this is in OHIO please let me know if you want a job of cleaning. One lady said she would help me out but lives in Michigan. Now 5 hours away is just too much for a job of cleaning a house, don't you think? LOL
     Well I guess that will be it for now. I will be back soon to let you know if there is anything new going on. Oh by the way don't forget get the online magazine Rustytinroof it has so much going on. Great reading material.
From my home to yours I send you much love and hugs
My two Yorkies out of 3 we have.
