Spring Inspiration at All About Home #33

Hi Friends and Welcome,

We're so glad you're here for the party.
Let's enjoy all the Springtime inspiration!

Change in plans...

Happy Sunday friends. I hope you're having a good weekend. We finally have some sun, and it's time for our first mowing. Spring is here, no matter what's going on around us. 

I wanted to check in and let you all know that I received a call Friday telling me all surgeries at my hospital had been cancelled. Not just elective or qualifying but all non emergency scheduled. So, since mine was "scheduled" it's not an emergency to them, despite my neurosurgeon advocating on my behalf. We don't even have that many cases of the virus in our town, but that's what has happened. You can imagine how disappointed I am with that decision, because we all know the effects of the virus are going to be long term. I have no idea how long this reschedule will take. So, I'm going to continue co-hosting All About Home with Amber until I know something otherwise. Just like the bunny below... I'm going to enjoy the Spring season and celebrate Easter as usual.

Spring Goat Cart and Contemplating Life at This Moment

I started out wanting to share my French-y goat cart filled with tulips and forsythia, but then I started writing and this post just tumbled out. I'm just a bundle of emotions this last few weeks. It's not the staying home that is the problem because I haven't been out a lot this last 9 months, but I guess it's the idea that we can't, and all the unknowns that go with that. I want to be honest here, and not put on a happy "mask". I think the last thing we all need is being made to feel like the emotions we are dealing with are wrong or inconsequential. Some of us are doing good and handling it in stride, but if you're having a difficult time that's OK too. We shouldn't be afraid to admit it.

In the Pink at All About Home #32

Hi Friends and Welcome,

I sure hope you all are feeling well, and coping with all that's going on in our world around us. It's important to keep a routine if possible, and to keep our mood and spirits "upbeat". If you'd like to take a little break and look for some fun and Spring inspiration then you're at the right place. Thanks so much for coming by to join the party!

A Personal Update and Blogging Note

Hi Friends, it's been awhile since I shared much personally about what's been going on with me health-wise. I'd thought about sharing often, but haven't because things have been inconclusive as to a diagnosis. So it's time to say a bit and tell you about things that are coming up.

Spring DIY at All About Home #31

Hi Everyone, Welcome to All About Home.

I know we're all on in a bit of a personal "alert" because of the virus. Be careful and safe in your daily life, and at the same time let's try to stay calm and continue with our routine in some fashion. I think we can enjoy blogging and still be aware and mindful of our family and welfare, without feeling guilty or insensitive to others. So with that thought, I'm glad you're here for a little Springtime inspiration.

Welcoming Spring With an Antique Crockery Pitcher

Hi Friends, I'm excited today to be joining in with a group that will be starting a new bimonthly Themed Hop. Thank you Cindy from County Road 407, for creating this fun gathering for all of us that are lovers of farmhouse and vintage decor. If you came from visiting CoCo at The Crowned Goat, welcome, I'm so glad that you came by. This month we're sharing our ideas for using crockery in our decor and vignettes.

Holiday Cupboard for St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day may not be a big holiday, but it's still a fun one to decorate for. It's a chance to bring out the green and start incorporating it into the Spring season. Temps are still on the chilly side, but it's easy to see the warm weather and that buds and blooms are on the way.

Inspiration for Early Spring at All About Home #30

Hi Everyone, welcome to All About Home.

I'm so glad you came by for some early Springtime Inspiration!

Decorating with Spring Naturals

Hi Friends, hope you're having a wonderfully warm and sunny weekend. So maybe not everyone will be... but hope it's a good one. We're doing a few "house things" and I want to get the back porch at least swept out of leaves that have been congregating there all winter. I'm loving all the Spring Inspiration that's out here and I've put together a few Spring-y natural vignettes to get things looking optimistically like Winter may be over and done with.

Early March Mantel

I have a confession... 

I struggle with mantels. 

Do I use more, or less?
