"I'm so glad that I live in a world where there are Octobers."
~L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables
I have to say that it's been hard to get back into the swing of blogging after a long break. Nothing too exciting going on around here to tell about. And not having a blog list in my sidebar isn't helping. I'm going to have to get a new one started since it doesn't look like the old one is going to reappear.
Meanwhile....
A few fall touches have appeared around the house, courtesy of my daughter. I'm enjoying the cozy feel that autumn brings to the inside of the house with a little fall decor added here and there.
Yesterday was spent at the Big Town. While there, I found my car heading toward Upscale/Resale, so I forced myself to go inside since I was in the neighborhood. Ha. I only bought 1 book for 50 cents and a bundle of Mary Engelbreit's Home Companion magazines for a dollar bill. Even though I don't need another magazine, I couldn't pass these up.
Now, I'm going to get to work on that new blog list for my sidebar, and hoping I can get BG to go out to supper with me. Maybe he will if he sees I don't have anything started when he gets home from work! Wish me luck....:)

Fall is a wonderful time of year.I love the fall touches in your home.I think I need someone to come decorate my home.
ReplyDeleteIt is fun to decorate for fall isn't it?
ReplyDeleteYour house looks so pretty! Especially the buffet. What are the beautiful flowers in your header? Mums? Love the color! I took a year off, so I know about getting back into swing of things. Don't worry about exciting, most blogs are not. Just your daily happiness and some pictures are fine! It's really kind of like snooping into people's lives.
ReplyDelete...if our house caught on fire and I had time to grab only 2 things...my laptop (a lot of fam pics on it) and my stack of Home Companions. I actually cried when she stopped production of them...the best little magazine ever published.
ReplyDeleteHope you get to go out to eat....
Hello Cheryl, love the Fall at your home, my favorite time of year....blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteYour fall touches look so pretty. I re-did my blog list too as it didn't seem to be planning to return any time soon. Now we will hope they stay where they belong.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you were successful in getting BG on board with the supper idea.
You have some beautiful fall touches in your home!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteLove that you found the magazines ... I am jealous. :-)
Good for you for showing restraint at the thrift store! Even so, you had some great finds!
ReplyDeleteA rainy fall day is the perfect time for a nap. :)
yes autumn is a wonderful time for changing colours
ReplyDeletesending you an email about the list. beautiful pics today. we are safe and fine, eye is doing well.
ReplyDeleteLoved the colors in that bouquet. Fall has my favorite colors on tap. We are just beginning to show changes in the trees here.
ReplyDeleteHi Cheryl!
ReplyDeleteI love fall colors, they just make me happy. I will be getting my decorations out tomorrow - I love October!!
Hugs,
Barb
I am just getting back to blogging, too, Cheryl. It does take a bit to get back into it. I have been gone almost a year-since John's diagnosis. Loving your bits of fall around the house. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteYes, having a bit of fall inside most definitely helps me to enjoy this beautiful season, especially when the leaves haven't changed outside yet! I hope you get things right on your blog soon and welcome back!
ReplyDeleteThis has been a wonderful Fall season.....love everything about it.
ReplyDeleteYour home is looking so fall~ish and cheery... all the decorative touches are just perfect.
Enjoy this lovely weekend, dear friend.

Anne of Green Gables....how my daughter and I loved that series. She has since bought the entire set.
ReplyDeleteI want mums! I love that one you are showing. Somehow all of my mums have disappeared. Now would be a good time to get some selections.
Beautiful fall decorations in your home...so far, I just have the new dining room tablecloth.
Good luck with the eating out thing......
Sweet touches of autumn around your home. Very cozy and welcoming. It is certainly true that when a blogger has been away for a while that getting back into it is a challenge. I think that you're doing well! Deborah at The Beautiful Matters had her blog list reappear. Wouldn't it be great if yours did, too? Course it's a good way to tidy up...to lose the list. Might as well think positively. Yes, it was Laurel's birthday. I usually don't think of wiffle ball games. =D
ReplyDeleteLovely fall decorations! My favorite season!
ReplyDeleteHi Cheryl. Nice to see your post and I hope you got to go out to supper that day! :) I hope you will follow my blog again. Take care and enjoy these lovely fall days.

ReplyDeleteFall is my FAVORITE!!!
ReplyDeleteFall is such a lovely time of year- it is good to see your post today. I hope you got that invite out to supper- love those, always ready to ditch the kitchen and let someone else cook for a change!
ReplyDeleteHi Cutie ---I know where you have been--but I won't spill the beans!!!! I know you loved it...
ReplyDeleteGreat Fall pictures.... I LOVE Autumn. In fact, my blog post today is about the things I love about Fall....
Can't wait to see pictures from your trip.
Hugs,
Betsy
I do hope you got a very good dinner out. I loved the fall too. Your shopping moment was fun. Your photos are lovely and I like that your daughter helped you out. You are the best and I have missed your blog. Blessings and hugs~
ReplyDeleteI liked the fall colors inside your house, Cheryl. I can understand how it takes awhile to get back to posting. Once upon a time, we posted daily, now I aim for 3X a week. I do enjoy reading blogs of other folks, but sometimes there's a time crunch. Hope you enjoyed your getaway. Maybe it was to Branson?
