I found Daisy's blog just a short time after her passing. She was a remarkable lady, wasn't she? I visited her blog to read the old posts for several weeks thereafter because she "spoke" to my heart. Hope your autumn is just as blessed as your wonderful summer! Please visit me sometime at unshelvedwords08.blogspot.com!<BR/>Blessings,<BR/>MarilynSummer Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373355196337731396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-14852746968812262902008-07-29T18:18:00.000-06:002008-07-29T18:18:00.000-06:00Hi Julie!

She has been a real blog pal to me when I've needed my breaks and a wonderful support when I return, too.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you are having such a lovely, perfect sounding summertime.

(snork-snork) I am reminded of dialog between Og and Sharon in Finian's Rainbow...<BR/><BR/>Sharon McLonergan: Do you feel a warmish, kind of glowish, peculiarish sensation?<BR/><BR/>Og: No... it's a sort of quiverish, shiverish, flibberty-gibberish sensation!<BR/><BR/>Sharon McLonergan: Does it make you feel hummingbirds in your heart?<BR/><BR/>Og: Butterflies in my feet!<BR/>Sharon McLonergan: Bees in your bonnet!<BR/><BR/>Og: [dancing] Stars in my britches!<BR/>Sharon McLonergan: It makes you want to dance!<BR/><BR/>Og: [falls over] I hadn't noticed.<BR/><BR/>===<BR/>Well, I think we all noticed that Julie was probably out drinking Italian sodas and "soaking up life, down to [her] toes." (from Mame) It sounds like you had great fun! Your BBQ squash sounds delish! (Is it called banana squash?)<BR/><BR/>It's so nice to have your special brand of "seeing life" back on these pages. And speaking of pages, your altered book turned how fantastic! I am going to be sponsoring an ATC Swap on my blog soon. I hope you will participate.<BR/><BR/>Continue your "JUICY, GREEDY SUMMER OF PERSONAL DELIGHTS."

We bought a new (to us) house this past winter and are learning all of its facets this summer - like when the sun goes behind the trees each day - where the fairies like to hide in the yard - how many deer can be in the yard at one time before someone becomes possessive of the yard - a fabulous summer.<BR/><BR/>I have, so far, mostly read quilting blogs, as I am a quilter - and somehow I stumbled upon yours and find it absolutely delightful. It has an element that most quilting blogs don't have and I love it.<BR/><BR/>In our new house we have a huge empty wall that needs a fairy painting and your blog has been an added inspiration to begin the design for it - flower fairies, baby fairies sleeping in flowers, butterflies and dragonflies - oh the possibilities.

I thought perhaps you ran off with the fairie folk to the edge of the ancient forest!<BR/>Good to hear that you have taken time to enjoy the summer breezes with a glass of lemonade and a good book and laps from the dogs.If I know dogs any crumbs smeared or dropped are little treats for them.<BR/>This is a time when I sit by my pond and many times think of Daisy..particularly when I take photos of my fairies to publish on a post! There have been several that you missed.<BR/> Continue to allow the sun to warm your face and absorb all that Vit D and continue to feel the warm breezes in your hair. hugs NGNaturegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00177418253271097079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-37120027704867541252008-07-25T11:08:00.000-06:002008-07-25T11:08:00.000-06:00Well there you are!!
