About me

I’m a country girl.  I live outside a small Ohio town of approx. 20,000 people-on a farm that has been in my husband’s family for four generations.  I’m a secretary for a non-profit organization.  I’m an artsy person who would truly love to make a living at creating things – if I could only figure out how!!!

    • Hi There,

      I bet you can’t wait until December 13th!!! I know it will be such a wonderful day and time for you both!

      My daughter will be home for Thanksgiving for a couple of days. I am so afraid I will just cry the whole time. Ha Ha
      They won’t be home for Christmas :>(

      I will write more tomorrow,my honey is done working and we are going to watch a movie.

      I hope you are having a good evening~!

    • So are you childless again? It sounds like Josh made out pretty good. ~ha   Yum,steak too…Mmmmm

      My son,Sam, was late to find “that someone” special too.
      I think he was 27. He picked the perfect person for himself and they are a lot alike. He is extremely analyitical and intelligent, and he needed the same type person. I guess what I am saying is that he is a "brain" and sometimes hard to understand. Ha Ha     I'm sure Josh will find HIS perfect girl too. (smilie face)  Oh... I had a few girls picked out in my mind for Sam... and they are nothing at all like his wife. ~Ha

      Wow,sounds like you have a big mess coming your way involving your office. Ughhhhhhh  Maybe it will be better
      than you anticipate. I hope so!

      And yes, I have a sparkling kitchen again. Your note was
      funny. Ha Ha
      I know what you mean about the spiders! Goodness gracious they are driving me crazy too! I will be glad when the frost gets them all. I wish I had a picture of a spider with wide eyes and a snowball coming at him to attach to your note. ~Hee Hee

      I know what you mean about having just you and your husband not messing up the house too much. But,is your husband a tad bit messier than you are? Such as salt & pepper, or foot crumbs?  Just the smaller things? Maybe I am a neat freak (?????)

      You were talking about Josh coming home. I have thought about my daughter and granddaugher all day today. I miss them so much that it actually hurts. It would become unbearable if I didn't make myself stop thinking about them for very long at a time. I just pray that they will learn to hate Florida and come home. Ha Ha

      I hope I didn’t miss anything you might have asked me since I can’t see the note you wrote me,while I’m writing yours.

      I hope you and your sweetheart have a nice relaxing evening together

      Hugs,
      Della

    • Hi Teresa,

      I hope your office is nearly done. I’m sure it has been very hectic having your office in disarray and having your son visit at the same time. (smilie face)

      So did he manage to get any “goodies?” Hee hee
      Too funny!

      And yes, I have to say that after one marriage to an alcoholic at a very young age, and then loosing my second husband… I really lucked out finding Mark. I am thankful
      EVERY single day!!!!!!!!!!   REALLLLLLLLLLLY!

      I hope you are having a good Sunday and that you and your son have gotten to have some quality time together. (big smile)

      I need to get back to the kitchen and finish what I started. You know, all the fun things…. cleaning the refrig, mopping and waxing.  Woohoooooooo.  ( Ha)

      Have a Wonderful Day!

    • Good Morning Teresa,

      I hope you are having a good week so far.
      Thank you for telling me a little more about yourself.
      Gracie sounds like a wonderful dog. I too have a dog.She is
      a tri colored cocker spaniel named Jules.You can see her on my pictures.  I would love to know how to train dogs for those with special needs. I think it would be so satisfying.
      Your “fury angel” sounds like the perfect candidate!

      It would be neat to have a Llama. They are a cool animal for sure! Funny, I was just thinking that the other day after seeing them on TV.
      I live in the country but don’t see many deer. Perhaps it is because we have fields all around us that are farmed.
      I sure would love to see LOTS of deer. BIG GRIN.

      I think it’s wonderful that you are continuing your education! You gooooooooo girl!!!  

      It’s hard to remember everything you had mentioned without seeing your note at the same time I write yours,so I hope I haven’t left anything out.

      Has anything interesting happened with you these past few days?  Mark (my husband) took me to a play to see “Guys and Dolls,” and out to dinner Saturday evening. He also surprised me with a carriage ride after dinner for the ride to the play. I felt like a princess. Believe me, I appreciate his loving and thoughtfulness!!!!  

      I hope you have a super day Teresa!!!!!!

    • Well Hello There My Friend, I’m glad you found me again.
      I lost some of my people as well. Hopefully I will get them back.

      That’s great that you are still thinking about the antique business. It really is great fun.

      Did you say you were going to school? What are you studying?

      I don’t remember asking about Gracie. What type dog is she?
      Sweet name!!!!!!!!!

      Please do write when you have the chance.

    • Good Evening,

      I hope you had a great weekend.

      Thank you so much for your compliment about my pictures.

      I’m glad the information was helpful. That’s great that you
      have some place that you can rent a space. You will definitely want to wait until you have time to devote to this,even with just a booth space.  I would start out first doing a little research on your free time,or as you stated,going to some sells. And besides sells are fun ! lol

      I got my Mom into selling antiques and now she never calls.
      ha ha ha !!  On the serious side, she makes LOTS of money since she is so knowledgable about nearly every type item. Dishes,furniture,etc.

      I had a large shop and I once bought nearly a whole estate.
      It was a blast.  NOT fun to put into the trailor though. lol

      Well, I’m glad I could help you. If you have any other questions just give me a shout.

      Your second choice would be to find someone who is looking for a boothrenter. This would allow you to try your hand at
      antique and vintage sells in your area first.  

      Do you think you could find someone to let you boothrent?

      Also,another anvenue for you (if you have the ability to do so) is to go to auctions and sell items from your home.
      People LOVE antiques and vintage items…so you could merely
      post signs in town for people to know where your located.

      I have lots of other ideas for you. These are just a few.
      Let me know what you think so far.

      Smiles~
