Her name (author of Under A Country Sky and many other lovely books) is not Grace S. Richardson, but Richmond. My brain was really misfiring that day!Thickethouse.wordpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187303460677067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-31541608420199293212010-04-15T12:19:22.006-04:002010-04-15T12:19:22.006-04:00You inspire me Brenda!

I have found that I am forced to thin out my beloved collection of books to make it more usable. The ones I've chosen to edit are on topics that might be useful to younger mothers just beginning nest building and raising their children. I have a nice little box already that I will donate to Precious Life charities! <br /><br />I must admit, however, that the task was beginning to overwhelm me until I read your post and was reminded of the concept of breaking this huge task into smaller bite~size jobs. <br /><br />Hugs and love,<br />Tracey<br />x0x<br /><br />P.S. I've not read Edith's letters book but will put it on my wish list...most definitely!Tracey McBride ~ Frugal Luxuries®https://www.blogger.com/profile/03043055986653442733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-74483513793411149552010-04-15T11:59:49.479-04:002010-04-15T11:59:49.479-04:00Just last week I cleaned and tidied some kitchen c...Just last week I cleaned and tidied some kitchen cabinets and got inspired to "jazz" them up by adding a paper border (punched out border) with double sided tape to the edge of the shelves. I had some commercially produced border, but it wasn't enough to do all the cabinets. I then turned to my Martha Stewart border punch and made additional borders from white printer paper. Opening the cabinets now I get a surge of joy seeing how just that little bit extra made it special. (Obviously it doesn't take much to entertain me)Lindanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-25889082875351287872010-04-15T00:46:07.354-04:002010-04-15T00:46:07.354-04:00When chores of any kind seem to overwelming I can ...When chores of any kind seem to overwelming I can still do something. Some part of it can be done now and another little part later and more another time again. Soon the whole thing is done! :) I find even just beginning a chore is a relief verses not doing any of it. It took me over a week but I got the bushes all trimmed back and done for a while! :) Now I am working on the kitchen cabinetes...one shelf at a time. Good post Brenda!

Tonight I'm feeling like it is very dirty. :( I don't like when that feeling comes over me. :( Maybe I can get it somewhat clean by the weekend....a child spilled lemonade all over the kitchen floor while I was gone and despite my spot mop I've been squeaking on the floor all evening! <br /><br />I did pick up the DVD on herbs by the West ladies and hope to watch it soon!Heather L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09892693393383714339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-35007194034729366802010-04-14T20:38:00.981-04:002010-04-14T20:38:00.981-04:00Getting my pantry under control is on my wish list...Getting my pantry under control is on my wish list. Maybe once the school year is ended. I am working at it in a round-a-bout way because I am doing less grocery shopping and using from it.<br />But, that only goes so far.<br /><br />Becky K.Becky K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10531485758141842829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-30867954423067723802010-04-14T20:18:02.948-04:002010-04-14T20:18:02.948-04:00I've decided I need to tackle my cleaning in a...I've decided I need to tackle my cleaning in a different way rather than leaving it until spring cleaning. Getting older has made me stop and think differently about taking care of my home. I loved this post. I wonder if I can find a copy of the book too.
