Bits and Pieces Through My Back Door

Good evening you all and welcome Through My Back Door. The coffee is on (DD) and there are some cinnamon rolls to go with them. It is so cold out to night and drizzling rain, so hurry in, sit by the fireplace and lets chat. There is no place like home when it is cold outside. Today Carol and I went to Clinton and hit the shops. I didn't buy anything, but she did. She treated me to lunch and we had a good visit. We haven't spent a lot of time together lately because she has been gone. After she left I cleaned. What fun!lol  I am trying hard to keep the house clean with it being on the market, but that is not my favorite thing to do. I finally came up with something for my table.
This is it for now. I just cannot come up with anything I  just LOVE.
It is simple and I find I am more into simple. I almost said I am more simple and that is probably a true statemnt.lol
Yesterday was my granddaughter Olivia's 21st birthday. She is pitiful, poor thing. She celebrated it in Paris!lol The city of her dreams.
She is quite the diva! can you tell? As you know she is in England studying this semester. Happy Birthday Olivia. (It is actually the 29th, but she celebrates the 28th) This was taken in May on my birthday.
I will share a few room shots of the house now. I have done a bit of changing.
It won't be long until I can sit outside. I am looking forward to those days.
I have spent a lot of time at Debs lately as Beth has been home. We all have so much fun and will be glad when Ryan's residency is finished so they can move back.
There is just not much going on but I am so glad you came to share bits and pieces Through My Back Door where life is good.

PS: Andrew is selling for his first fund raiser at school. He informed us he had to sell 16 things to get to ride in the "limbo" to Mac Donalds.(It is about 5 blocks or so)lol Yes, he has surpassed his quota.
PSS:Please continue to pray for Tamra. Her chemo is starting, she has cut her hair and is ready
PSSS: I am getting excited for my trip to Williamsburg, I have been home since November. Although I have enjoyed it, I am ready for a trip.lol
*****I have had several e-mails that you can't leave comments. I have no idea what is going on. Anyone?*****
