I have much catching up to do Duchess, I have missed you & just a brief stop bye put a smile on my face. Such lovely, lovely photos. I can't wait to put on my p.j.'s and grab a mug of cocoa. Hope & yours are doing well my dear friend. Hugs to you xoxo
Hello, my sweet and kind friend, I am hoping your weekend has been a happy one, too. I am wishing you and your family an enchanting holiday season. Much love and blessings to you! Vicki
Hey! Thanks for dropping by with such cheery words! I do completely agree with you - I remember my first big break-up and thinking it was the end of the world and then a year later sitting on a beach by the amazon thinking 'look where I am this time a year later!'. It is good to remember this! Still, right now it is early days and I'm still suffering from the shock that it has actually happened. I never thought it would! I thought we'd work our way through it all...but maybe it is for the best...just feel lonely and awful now...small steps at a time...I'll get to that 'beach' or some place good in the future eventually... xxx
Dear Duchess, you always know how to serve the best cookies, not mention Christmas cookies!!! Hoping that your beautiful Christmas Season is filled with magic and joy and love!:-)))
I am so glad you had a chance to stop by and visit me, life throws us curves at times, and we have to make time to do whatever needs to be done, and whatever is going on with you in your personal life your true blogging friends will be here for you when it's over. I am here I have never forgot about ya.
Hello dear Duchess, I also love coming to your blog, there`s ALWAYS wonderful images to love and enjoy and die for!!!!! Regarding my roses I plant them in a sunny place, add compost of my own, 1 or 2 times a year add some roses nutrient in pots and soil, prune them everytime a rose dries and do one drastic prune in the end of autumn or starting winter, and almost never use any quimic for infections, except when one plant is very damaged, most of the times they heel themselves...ah! I also talk to them and thank them for their fruits... I also caress them... and, that`s it I think... is really very easy!! Lots of hugs to you
