What to do?

...when you lose the internet? Well, even though I missed Silver Sunday and all my favorite Monday memes I did get some much needed house cleaning done.

And I also had to pull some decorating books and magazines out since I couldn't surf the web for inspiration.
The picture above came form a
Victoria Feb 1996.

I also scanned a few more photos to share as we get closer to the month of hearts and roses.

Happy to be back in touch!

Your posts reminds me that I want to gather up all my past issues of Victoria. I've stored them in a cabinet in the garage, and my husband thinks I either need to part with them or keep them where I'll use them from time to time. So.... I need to move them one place or the other. ~ Sarah

I think pulling out my Victoria magazines is just what I will do! I want to creat something, but am totally uninspired. I think this will be just the ticket!
Thanks for the creative spark!
Blessings!

it's amazing how tied to modern communications and conveniences we've become... I think that's why I love to camp in the mountains... no phone, no internet... just quiet...

see you Thursday mornin'!

Love hat vignette on the stool!!

I do not want my computer to be down, but oftentimes i think it is the only way i will drag myself away from here to get something else done.
I am one of those addicted bloggers.
no kidding!

I admire those in blog land who can actually put it aside when it got to be too much for them.

well, enough rambling on. Must have needed to get that off my chest. =))
