A place to be able to touch base with feelings, hopes, dreams, trials and tribulations. To walk and work through things that bother me and possibly all of us.

Our new blue/silver tree is gone...
I was at work in the morning and happened to look out the window, only to see the workers from the Mairie dismantling the tree. How sad. Luckily I did get a photo of it during the day, unfortunately I did not realize it was in the shade at the time. Oh well. Too late now... here is what it looked like during the day. If the sun was shining on it, it would be more silverish and shiney. At night it was a beautiful blue. Scroll down to earlier posts and you will see a night shot of it!!

Our new blue tree
I came home late one afternoon to see this silver, metal tree setting at our "courtyard" here at Place des Fetes. We already had 3 or 4 cut trees the Mairie had put here, with bows to make it look more festive. But this was different. Of course, I did not have my camera so I thought to myself, it is just a silver looking metal tree, with lights, later. Came home, and later that day (of course it was after dark already by 5 pm) I went to get bread. Again, forgot the camera. I rounded the corner only to see this beautiful blue tree...glowing in the courtyard.
Of course, I bought the bread, took it home and then came back down with the camera in hand. I was not alone by then, there were people around taking photos with their cameras, cell phones, on the phone talking to someone saying come and bring a camera, there was a couple asking someone to take a photo of them in front of the tree...so I waited my turn and took some photos. I have yet to get a photo of that rather plain looking silver metal tree in the daylight, but, could not resist making the extra trip to get a photo of this!
Just in the store at Deco-Pages!
We have also had some wonderful pages made from the kit...here is just a sampling of 3 of them...
Where can you find it? At Deco-Pages of course. To go to the Heritage Blessings kit by Paris Designs at Deco-Pages.com click on this line!

YES!! Life slows down!!
This last weekend we entertained 7 extra people in our tiny apartment. I am sure that when they all came in they wondered where they were going to eat...but with furniture in the hallway outside the apartment and everything possible out of the way, we pulled the table out to seat them all and have an American Thanksgiving dinner. Not everyone "appreciated" the dinner...being French, eating an American dinner is not necessarily high on their list, but all left here not able to eat a single morsel more!!
My goal, getting back to the actual subject, is to also start getting photos of hubbies originals that I have framed and get them on this site as well. I would love to sell some of them! I love them and it is hard to part with them, but, we need a roof on the house in Michigan so that is where every cent will go. In the coming weeks I will be taking photos and getting them put up in the side bar... I hate to have them go as I love each and every painting he has done, but, the roof is more important! I will also be offering some freebies, both CU and regular... wow...new for me (the CU ones) but I will do this!!
Thank you all for being such patient and faithful followers. Keep your eyes open and watch for what comes next!
