A Busy Week

 

She blooms!

Twice a year this camellia puts on a real show-

once in the spring and now in the fall.  She has

a light scent and the bees are having a field 

day with all the blooming flowers.

Yuletide Camellia

She is blooming a little early this year.

It's been a real busy week ... decorating, cleaning,

sewing {I was sent 4 collections of fabric to

work with this month] plus a trip to the dentist and

also to the vets with Derby ... then there was moving

a bunch of stuff in the garage to make room for

the delivery guys to take out our old frig and

bring in the new one.

I gave away our big tree and now just have the

two pencil pines by our fireplace.

Meet our new GE frig from the Cafe collection -

this particular model has glass doors.

She was a big chunk of change and I contacted 3 

places for price quotes.  Two of the places were

within 30 minutes of our home and they were the

highest.  One local place didn't install - only delivered -

so we would have to contact someone to install and

take out our old frig [no thank you].  

The final place I contacted was located not far

 in Delaware - they quoted pretty close to the same

local prices I received ... but there is no sales tax -

free install, $10 to take away the old frig and only

$60 to deliver.   Saving on the Maryland sales 

tax was reason enough to purchase it from Delaware.
