Hello!

Are you there?

I can’t believe it’s September. Almost October. I never meant to be away for so long.
I’m not sure how it happened really. The summer just slipped away.

I hope you all enjoyed your summers.

Fall is almost here. Are you ready?

May was a really busy month for us.  There was a lot of traveling. We went up to Atlanta when my middle son, Nathan, graduated from Ga Tech. Then we went back to Atlanta for a wedding. I had family come to town when my youngest, Aaron, graduated high school. Then we had to clear #2 out of his apartment in Atlanta and move him and all his stuff back home. #3 had to be moved to FSU for summer session. Then #3 came home six weeks later (with all his stuff) and then back to FSU he went, after two weeks of being home.

And just this month my oldest son, Justin, got married! They had originally planned on a wedding next year but decided to get married now and then they’ll have a ceremony and celebration later. So I’m a mother-in-law and a grandmother now! Rickelle has a 7 year old son, Grey, who we all adore! I’m so happy to have them as part of our family now.

Did you get all that?

It has been just a wee bit crazy. I enjoyed the time off but I’d like to try to get back to blogging and also pay more attention to my etsy, Skyland Drive. It has been hard to get this post out after so much time away. I felt really bad for letting so much time go by.

I still have to show you my kitchen that got painted.
I’m waiting on fabric samples for the window treatments so it will be soon!
What a huge difference the paint made.

They don’t look like this anymore!

Although I haven’t been blog hopping much I’ve been keeping up with a lot of you on Facebook and Instagram. I think I got overwhelmed with the amount of blogs I was following and it sort of swallowed me up. I need to find a happy medium somehow. Because I have missed seeing all of your projects and what has been going on in your part of the world. I just need to figure out how to balance it better.
Do you get that way at times?

I hope you understand my little break and I hope you all haven’t given up on me.
