Welcome Everyone to Simple Chit Chat

Welcome Everyone to Simple Chit~Chat!

Whew! It has been a while for me to stop by here. Not that I haven't been around, but I guess been spending more time with my LilacsNDreams Home page, shoppe page, and working a bit with my website too. I get things arranged, think I will be happy with them, and then all of a sudden I decide changes are needed again. Nothing big, usually minor, but still not completely fulfilled with how everything is done yet. Also, I try very very hard to keep a regular schedule of postings on my home page too. When you get a chance, check it out some time. Remember it is always great to hear from you too. 

WOW! The weather has really been something lately hasn't it? We couldn't get winter away from us fast enough. It seem to have dragged out, but now it is gone, and we are dealing with tornadoes with severe storms. Gets comfortable during the day, but at night sometimes it gets a bit cool yet. Looks like spring will drag out a bit too. Then, all of a sudden the hot weather will be here, and before you know it we will have winter again...urgh! Sorry, nothing against the snow everyone, but I so feel like a change with warmer weather longer during the year. Sure would be nice:)

Well, here it is a new weekend, and tomorrow is already the first of June! Wishing you all a super weekend. Have fun, enjoy, and be safe!:)

Happiness is Friday Come Visit Simple Chit Chat

Happiness is Friday! Come Visit With Simple Chit Chat.

Hi there, and Welcome to Simple Chit Chat everyone! Glad to have you stopping by, and sharing your time with Me. 

Wow! Where does the time go around here, right? Seems like yesterday I was just working with my blog, and leaving posts with all of my pages here. Geesh! Have a lost track of time around here, or what?:)

The beginning of the year has been kind of a rough start for Me, and my family. We Dad passed away, husband had an issue with his job, and such long stories for me to share with you. I could write a book! We did have one good thing happen so far. On Valentines Day February 14, 2013 our son graduated from his Army basic training in South Carolina. We were able to be there to share his special time with him, and surprise him with other family members attending too. He was not able to be home from the army for my Dad's funeral, and this was something we all wanted to do for him. My Dad would have been proud as he too had retired from the Army, and was proud to see our son in uniform before has passed. 

We are now at the time of year where it is time for winter to be over, enough of the snow, enough of the cold, and so impatiently anxious waiting for spring to officially be here! Seeing everything bloom again, everything fresh, opening windows at home, mowing yards, being outside to paint things, and just the beginning of things new again. Hopefully that will soon be here for us all.

Trick or Treat, Halloween Festivities, Fall Holidays

Trick or Treat, Halloween Festivities, Fall Holidays is upon us all. 

Welcome to Simple Chit Chat page at LilacsNDreams everyone! Happy to have you drop by, and check in on things. Where did this summer go? Just like a whirl wind, and here is fall again. Rain, cooler weather, leaves falling, preparations for winter time, etc. Before we get to the end of the year we have some holidays that we will celebrate, and have fun with too. 

I would like to wish everyone a Happy Halloween, may you have fun, and may you be safe too. I feel odd for not decorating this year. Generally I am a big decorator when it comes to the end of the year, and the holidays. Things in the yard, things around the house, and things inside the home too. But, not this year. Getting a house back into order from all the work done. Cleaning, wiping, rubbing, sweeping, dusting, rearranging things, putting things in order, etc etc. I have also spent some time putting a few different pieces together from thrifted items to offer with my shops at Etsy, and Ecrater. Sometime visit so that you can see what I have done so far, and know that other things are also be ing worked on to be added in as well. It's fun, and I enjoy doing it too. 

Well, I hope this finds everyone doing well. Hoping for good weather for everyone, and that those that have been effected by Hurricane Sandy that you are doing ok too. Thanks so much for sharing your time at Simple Chit Chat everyone. Take care, and see you again soon. Toodles........

Good Bye Summer and Hello to the Fall Season

Good-bye Summer, and Hello Fall!

Hello, and Welcome to Simple Chit Chat everyone! Wow! Where did the time all go to? One day it was nice, warm, sunny, yard sales, flea markets, and etc. Now, we are headed into Fall, and say good-bye to Summer for a few months. Darn! I had high hopes of getting some things done this summer. I got quite a bit done, but some things are not fully completed quite yet. I did a lot of down sizing of things, selling of precious items, and was trying to make things easier for us to move. The intention was to be moving across a few states down to TX which I was really looking forward to. Longer days of warm to thrift with, be creative, lil bit easier to paint with, and just enjoying things. 

Well, Hubby has come back home, left his job, and fell in love with the house all over again from some of the remodeling that has been done. So, he has been helping me to get some things done that needed completing with painting, cleaning floors, and moving some things back into place again. At least the house is getting back into order, and feeling more like home again. Still things to do, and then to prepare for him leaving on Monday with his new job. But, it is moving along. 

I know many like this time of year, and I am seeing many busy with creating things for the upcoming Holiday. Also, for the upcoming season. Many great things being shared out there, and I do enjoy all of it as well. 

Hey, thanks so much for sharing your time with Simple Chit Chat everyone! I enjoy the visits, and the company. Make sure to say Hi so that I know you were here, and I can hop over to visit you as well. Take care, and see you all again soon. Toodles everyone!:)
