Happy May Day!

I would like to say thank you to everyone for the positive response to my Mothers Day offerings:>) I am working on more tonight and will have them in the shop by Saturday afternoon. I also plan on my first Flea Market Friday offering tomorrow. The vase above will be one of the items offered. Really beautiful and so pretty for a bouquet for mom. I have been hitting the garage sales today, not a lot to show for it but hubby and I had fun. This is one of his weeks off. We might as well enjoy ourselves on the weeks he isnt working, right? The lawn needs mowing and there is a long list of spring clean-up things that need to be done. I'll be working on those this weekend too. Spring has sprung and, while it is very cool here (50's) the tiny green leaves are popping out on the trees and our peach, pear and apple trees are beginning to flower. I think May is my absolute favorite month. The gardens come back to life and by mid-May you can usually count on the days being warm and sunny. Just like the kids, I can't wait to get out of school for the summer:>) I am so greateful that I work for the school system and can have time off in the summer! Well, the long list of things to do is still waiting for me, so I must go. I'll see you tomorrow with a few Flea Market goodies.

  2. It's so funny hearing you talk about spring while I'm sitting here sweating!! I think we had spring for about 1 week and now we're into summer. I got hardly any spring cleaning done!
