A quick pop in to say that I miss you! I have to wait for my new internet connection at home, and hence can only do internet thingies from work now. :)
Greenwich Village windowsill with lovely plants :) (somebody's Home sweet Home~!)
I don't know if I told you guys, but my dear granddad died last Friday. So I went to say goodbye on Monday. Yesterday while unpacking more boxes at our new house, I opened an old box of photos. Guess who was there smiling at me from 1948 Egypt? Granddad. :)
I'll scan it for you and show you soon. It's a handsome one. (I love signs from the unseen.)
On a brighter note little Bronwyn is recovering nicely from her tonsillectomy. It was touch and go for the first week, she lost a lot of weight and was downright miserable. But as my good friend Jeaux says...those nasty germ bags are gone, forevah!!! lol
Last but not least I'm calling around for the best deal on internets (interwebs? lol) and will be online at home too shortly. Sigh. I feel so cut off from the world!
Sending out joy, love, and big smiles to you guys!! Enjoy your week and I'll be back with a proper post in a few days. xoxo

Happy 4th of July from down here, south of the border! And congratulations on your new house. Exciting!
I'm sorry to hear about your grandfather. Yes, finding the photograph of your grandfather seems like a sign from the unseen. He's found you in your new home. :)
