  5. Delores, such lovely words. We really do have so much beauty around us, we just have to take the time to look and be in the moment. That is why I always say, "Enjoy the Process" of what ever you are doing. Each day is such a blessed gift full of beauty and treasures if we just look. I am glad you did this today, very nice, Kathysue

  10. It never ceases to amaze me the way a bunch of fresh flowers can beautify the plainest of rooms. Just that simple touch and you are on your way to making a lovely room.

    Have a splendid week Delores!
