The pink issue arrived just the other day and I was reading it this morning before work. I had to go so I turned over the page to put the mag down and there was your herb garden stitchery - I've been blog hopping and came to your blog!

We...Hello Val, glad to hear about your packing up. We too have sold our 150 acre hobby farm and we are in the midst of packing. I am packing up my 7 x 8m Craft Room that my DH built for me. What a job!!! <br /><br /> We will be renting a little place down the East Coast, DS no. 1 has just told his father about the tropical fruit trees that are in the rented yard. We had a citrus orchard (just for our own use in the country). When we buy another home will start the citrus again. I planted 3 mandarin trees and they have just finished fruiting. I will miss these bountiful trees next year!!! I am starting to look like a mandarin.<br /><br />We are moving to be closer to our 2 grandchildren aged 2 and 1 and to give their parents a break whenever we are needed. <br /><br />Thanks for Block 8. I haven't started them yet, maybe when we rent I will start them. They are just beautiful and appealing to me as they are from the Lord's special instructions. "Gentleness" is a gift of grace that appears to be lacking in the younger generations today.<br /><br />Anyway must go now, thanks again and best wishes with your move!!!<br /><br />MaryanneMARYNANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02922589156233400420noreply@blogger.com
