some things I love

today I was looking through some pics and came across these
I did some scrapbooking a while ago I was in a circle Journal swap mine was on collections so I took a few pics of some of the things I collect .
I realy miss haveing these things around
I think I need to unpack some more of my treasures to make this house more mine
I have not been doing much I fell down the steps the other night
and let me say I have the biggest bruse[sp?] on my rear end and now my ankel is playing up as well.I tell you dark wet steps and slippery shoes are not a good combo.


ok enough I hope whoever is reading this is well and happy .
I will be back soon with some sewing
