This pendant light has a soft and romantic look. It's also a look you can alter as you wish, as it comes with two pleated fabric bands and two beaded strands that let you create you own look. The fabric bands come in pink or white and fit behind the rose motif screen. Then choose from pink ...
Oh So Romantic Chandelier
Pros: Attractive Design
Best Uses: Primary Light Source
Describe Yourself: Budget Shopper
This chandelier would be wonderful in a romantic cottage or shabby decor home. I would also use it to decorate my office since I love to surround my self with creative and romantic items. This is the ultimate in romantic.

Oh my goodness! I received my candle and I loved it. It was very beautifully packaged and was in a very cute little cut glass candle holder. But the best part was the smell. I ordered the gingerbread. Well it smelled up my house with the most wonderful scent. I didn't have anything sweet to eat in the house so I got a can of biscuits laid them out on a baking dish, put sugar and Cinnamon on them and just before they got done I put a little pat of butter on them. My daughter and I ate all of them.
So this is a warning -- gingerbread candles may be hazardous to your diet.

If Santa brought you a Kindle for Christmas -- what 5 books, magazines, blogs, or newspapers would you like included in your gift. Make a list on your blog and then link it with Mr. Linky.
See my example above.
Just in time for Christmas. I would love to have one of these Kindles. The ability to read on this new digital media would be such a great relief. New titles are coming out all the time -- newspapers, magazines, novels, etc.
"Meet the Amazon Kindle™, a wireless portable reading device with instant access to more than 190,000 books, blogs, newspapers and magazines. Whether you're in bed or on the train, Kindle lets you think of a book and get it in less than a minute." from http://www.oprah.com/slideshow/oprahshow/20081024_tows_kindle
Today on Oprah.com a stroke survivor talked about her incredible journey to recovery. Her book is my featured "Book of the Week -- My Stroke of Insight by Jill Bolte Taylor"
As many of you know I suffered a mild brain injury in 2003. Most of the time you can not tell that I have any problems, but it is the totality of my day and long term problems that someone would notice. I have learned, the hard way, that almost no one cares or takes the time to understand the affects of what it takes to stay engaged in life and process all that goes on around us. Nothing is as clear as we would like when you suffer from a brain injury. We forget the easiest task but can often articulate the most complex idea. I also know that the brain can change and learn new ways of doing things but it is a life's journey.
I hope many will take the time to read this book -- and reach out to those around you that have suffered a stroke or other type of brain injury.
My plan this year is to create gifts and items for sale that transcend Christmas. In other words, I am going back to my companies roots of "Today's Embroidery -- Tomorrow's Heirlooms." Look for new items and gifts that you can keep to pass down through your family and friends. Items such as hand and machine embroidered pillowcases, table scarves, handkerchiefs, monogrammed gifts, vintage linens, and many other personalized items.
This has been one of my most difficult moves. First I couldn't make up my mind whether I wanted to move to Asheville, NC that I love or move to Clarksville, TN that I don't like as much. The tipping point was moving in with my daughter and grandson. We found a cute little house for rent in Clarksville and we have set about getting things moved in. We both have some furniture and things here and both have a storage unit each in Virginia. My daughter plans to empty her storage unit at Christmas and I will empty mine in March.
The second reason this move was hard was because of the death of my grandmother. In 3 years I lost my mother, long time boyfriend, and now my grandmother. I am OK but the grief process has to take it's course. I think it is the hardest things families go through many never do well at this time. Feelings get hurt, tempers flair and it is real easy to say and do things that you will regret. I pray that my family holds together during this time.
Third thing is I fell again. I can't believe it. I was sorting through some books and went to get up off the floor and my left leg collapsed and I fell on my right leg with the knee extended. I ended up in the emergency room the second day I was here. I was just so tired after making two round trip car trips to Eastern Kentucky that I didn't pay attention to my strength and got hurt. It is getting better.
Fourth and lastly is moving my business. My machine needs some work and I had to turn down some work at the same time I was moving my business. I had to take off my site many personalized items until the first of November when the machine will be up and running again.
I know it sounds like all was negative but it wasn't really. My grandson and I get along so well and so do my daughter and I. Every company we dealt with including the landlord, cable companies, etc have been super nice. My car insurance was cut dramatically and I still have my business.
Yes, it was a difficult move but I'm so glad to be here and back to posting.

The show, featuring Marie Osmond and hosted by Hoda Kotb, raises awareness through the personal stories of women living with heart disease.

It's official. I'm moving to Asheville NC on October 7, 2008. I very excited because of all the place I have lived, Asheville is my favorite place. I am moving my business too. The beauty of having a website is that no matter where you live you can still have your business. I also plan to rent space at a shop in Asheville.
So to get everything together I am having a sale. Every thing in my store is on sale. This is not just a few percent off either. I have reduced every price as low as I can go. If I sell it I don't have to pack it, is my motto.
I will also be adding some things in the next few days too. So stay tunned.

We headed for Ft Campbell at 8:30 a.m. and was bussed to where they would get off the plane. Of course we waited and waited for a couple of hours when finally they told us we could go out and watch the it land. It was such a collective sigh to see the airplane finally make touch down. The troops (granddaughter included) got to march right in front of us. We all went back inside where a brief ceremony with them in formation took place. Then we got to hug and greet the them. Afterward we had to wait another couple of hours before we could take them home. I am so glad they are all home safe and sound. My granddaughter is engaged to a real nice fellow soldier Matt. They were deployed together and plan to get married in October.
