</div>Hi everyone, hope you are having a good day, what a lovely day in Ohio, Nocember 8th, and it was 73 degrees. It seems late in the fall for Indian Summer but I will take every nice day I can get. I love pictures in black and white and thought I would share this one with you. I will also share some pictures of my little cottage with you.<br />

It is November in Ohio...cold and dark at 6:00. Makes me want to cuddle up with a warm throw and a good book. The picture above hangs in my dining room and I think it say so much about this time of year. It makes me stop and reflect on the all so many blessings I have, and how much I take for granted. I think we live our busy live day to day not realizing how much we have...until it is taken away. I have a friend who lost her mother two weeks ago and another friend who lost her daughter two days ago. I want us all to stop and realize that the family and friends we have are such an important part of our daily live. <br /> I want to thank God for the good health I have today and hope and pray it will stay that way. I want us all to tell those close to us just how much we care.<br />I will try to think of a blessing each day in November and be thankful for this season we call Autumn and the day we call Thanksgiving. <br /> We live for the bounties of fall, but the harvest of friendship and family is blessed above all. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPmO-QA2uQ_jZHdlGIsbd9T0UgrjoX-hvOW8tdbTL4dLhao2MTZGJdtp11mi9UbR0Htf2WlIUcMyM441CxqZ0PUODFDHqxxRTjvpkzlxZtQETp79jKle8j1HlQNj29tLOSxpRlRWBo5QLW/s1600-h/specs___eye_glasses.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 191px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPmO-QA2uQ_jZHdlGIsbd9T0UgrjoX-hvOW8tdbTL4dLhao2MTZGJdtp11mi9UbR0Htf2WlIUcMyM441CxqZ0PUODFDHqxxRTjvpkzlxZtQETp79jKle8j1HlQNj29tLOSxpRlRWBo5QLW/s320/specs___eye_glasses.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400360282454419922" border="0" /></a> Please take the time to be thankful for all you have and to see the beauty of Autumn. <br /> Love ya, Sharon KSharonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02149427425753264266noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018382715774225479.post-8337574795542525692009-11-03T13:02:00.003-06:002009-11-03T13:26:02.580-06:00Please read my book........I mean my blog<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZQwmhEao8T07J-JosS0t3ThgD5lte9VfTMVzBkeSAR5-m7i0rHfrNnOvwiK-_xb-2v-CjRuz_yZCAQAltxmrIfQdP6yjn1Hfn5gowVtUG5Lgdm5unFqr9TLGf-myVwpr058rhddFZnbqj/s1600-h/10066157A~A-Quiet-Corner-Posters.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 317px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZQwmhEao8T07J-JosS0t3ThgD5lte9VfTMVzBkeSAR5-m7i0rHfrNnOvwiK-_xb-2v-CjRuz_yZCAQAltxmrIfQdP6yjn1Hfn5gowVtUG5Lgdm5unFqr9TLGf-myVwpr058rhddFZnbqj/s320/10066157A~A-Quiet-Corner-Posters.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399958815305556194" /></a><br />Hi Guys,<br /> It has been forever but I am back one more time for good....I took a long needed brake, so many things have happened in the last few months and I would like to share every little bit with all of you. <br /> So please, pretty please stay with me, I promise I will be back every day or so, please give me one more chance to show all my loyal readers that I can do this thing they call a blog....meaning biography log. <br /> Now I know each and every one of you want to know about me and where I go and what I do...I hope most of you anyway.

I hope by show and tell Friday I will have a new look to show.........Wish me luck.............Sharon KSharonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02149427425753264266noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018382715774225479.post-84548100692472823002007-05-04T19:12:00.000-05:002007-05-04T19:32:51.319-05:00Show And Tell Friday<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RjvMYcjIRaI/AAAAAAAAAh4/bfuzWPI7zHY/s1600-h/MVC-040S.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RjvMYcjIRaI/AAAAAAAAAh4/bfuzWPI7zHY/s400/MVC-040S.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060863326633346466" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXcniUWxEN-OcJNjf-ku5ngpE4s9snhtqWsx4ttCygUuYC_3Iii1TZw8kcIKsqyNyff3AOGfFxqSmRMjxu7Kes5RaxrpYyd7Jeoy6gibpn-YgkW5JsrZL5QEHHADRAutvt3LbfHv-esJyb/s1600-h/showandtellfg2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXcniUWxEN-OcJNjf-ku5ngpE4s9snhtqWsx4ttCygUuYC_3Iii1TZw8kcIKsqyNyff3AOGfFxqSmRMjxu7Kes5RaxrpYyd7Jeoy6gibpn-YgkW5JsrZL5QEHHADRAutvt3LbfHv-esJyb/s400/showandtellfg2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060863124769883538" /></a><br /> Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! <span style="font-weight:bold;"></span> Show and tell is sponsored by Kelli at There is no place like home. I was not sure what to post for show and tell, then I looked out my window and thought....why not show the checked curtains that I made this week. I have not sewed in years and thought why not try again. I went out and bought a machine and fabric and like magic I now have a little summer place at the lake with country curtains.<br /> I like the look that I now have achived. A little bit of country, a little bit of nautical and I am a happy camper. My summer home is a 35 foot trailer and it is little and cozy and fells like home. If it gets to small I will spend a day or so at Amelia Rose Cottage. Now I will have to sit and think about next Friday and the next show and tell. Good work Kelli...........Have a wonderful weekend every one.....Sharon K.Sharonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02149427425753264266noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018382715774225479.post-41796713232536221662007-05-02T18:19:00.000-05:002007-05-02T18:44:25.626-05:00My Little Girls Growing Up.........<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIsV-7Ew1pgJcg-jMbJUoG_5eiC0uXqXUxFWLHh9O9kt3Txy1Hu2FTAZhXuJ5wkpaYrNxCVorc6ck-sMWGsSLS9VgMKfaeBNBOPXgYjqhUIWiYff-6JEJGfCnGCJarqtZEJs0vOs9czoJx/s1600-h/MVC-038S.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIsV-7Ew1pgJcg-jMbJUoG_5eiC0uXqXUxFWLHh9O9kt3Txy1Hu2FTAZhXuJ5wkpaYrNxCVorc6ck-sMWGsSLS9VgMKfaeBNBOPXgYjqhUIWiYff-6JEJGfCnGCJarqtZEJs0vOs9czoJx/s400/MVC-038S.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060107270655329634" /></a> I went in town this week and received Brittany"s senior pictures and Lindsey's 3rd. grade pictures. And of course I will find a special place for them in my little home at the lake. It seems like yesterday Brittany was in junior high and now she will be a senior in HS in the fall. Senior pictures sure have changed , when my girls were in school they were the normal pictures..... no pearls like I had a hundred years ago. Now the girls take 6 out fits along and change not just the pose but clothes. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1C50bG1TH3ZYkbI2wGYVyQWzIhDpHBcFWXsa1pOrcuxKphmngsumuy9CH8AhoWP4EMPTK8SU_9nfSynCym9x_O7o9ZikCI-IZcg9p_G1H5wZMKAU-_olSm8WwhODwil8OU6Zh3h4G8GyL/s1600-h/MVC-037S.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1C50bG1TH3ZYkbI2wGYVyQWzIhDpHBcFWXsa1pOrcuxKphmngsumuy9CH8AhoWP4EMPTK8SU_9nfSynCym9x_O7o9ZikCI-IZcg9p_G1H5wZMKAU-_olSm8WwhODwil8OU6Zh3h4G8GyL/s400/MVC-037S.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060107270655329650" /></a> <br />This is Lindsey's picture and they are also quite different then the grade school pictures of long ago. This Sunday will be Lindsey's 9Th birthday and one of her gifts is getting a new decorated bedroom...one for a more mature young lady, grandma and mom painted and put a wallpaper border that she chose. We thought she would choose something different then she did. She choose a wallpaper border with puppies...cute little puppies.....and guess what she wants to go with the new room. A puppy of her own. I think Mom and Lindsey may go dog shopping this Saturday. They hope to find a small puppy that is looking for a new home and a puppy bedroom.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RjkhdMjIRYI/AAAAAAAAAho/kTICNdVTLnY/s1600-h/MVC-029S.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RjkhdMjIRYI/AAAAAAAAAho/kTICNdVTLnY/s400/MVC-029S.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060112441795954050" /></a><br /> I got home today and will work on a few more projects at my little home at the lake.

We have moved down the road to our little summer place at the lake. Our condo is only 2 miles away and will be available for family and friends to stay in at night. The summer place only has one bedroom so I am sure the condo will be very handy during the summer months.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3rGppmSJkjRn3c2FgpVBZoctffglzIakIh_Cdk-QinvJVkh5v1vnDyo3xk9x56sttCUxJSBqDkk8LpCe9GWkzeeMpxeEcXk5AyWC3LPT2oHlCl61TrXcjgZESMrvz4MUcSnmDhHi2ujgV/s1600-h/beach.bmp.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3rGppmSJkjRn3c2FgpVBZoctffglzIakIh_Cdk-QinvJVkh5v1vnDyo3xk9x56sttCUxJSBqDkk8LpCe9GWkzeeMpxeEcXk5AyWC3LPT2oHlCl61TrXcjgZESMrvz4MUcSnmDhHi2ujgV/s400/beach.bmp.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5057010163596925426" /></a><br />I found this picture and fell in love with the children on the beach. I would love to find clothes like this and take pictures of my grandchildren. If I found the clothes I know a lot of grandparents who would love the pictures. If any one out there in blog land knows of a shop who may carry vintage clothes, please let me know. <br /> We have been at the summer place during the summer for nine years and I feel at home here. I have Lake Erie in the front yard and a beach on the side yard. My grandchildren grew up here and it is a fun place to be. Port Clinton is a resort area in the summer and a ghost town in the winter. Many of the business close down during the winter months. Port Clinton is an hour away from Toledo and an hour away from Cleveland Ohio. We have Cedar Point amusement park and many island get a ways in the area. I will take pictures of the area in another post. It is so neat to share the area where you live with blogging friends. I feel like I have traveled all over the world through some of the blogs I have read. We can share the home we live in and the town where we walk.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU2fCZ_rEab8luBXlBqYkDegZhuHxAQeLREm8-GRUYpiN-_W1rnUAat509A_SsERzamFtZPoGc-FbKgJ3wske5HqEF9EpLJfxI9rNnUKdUO3lUH5ZLVtA3UrRSqe_NPfzJFnLewy1xG5Gi/s1600-h/marbleheadgreen.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU2fCZ_rEab8luBXlBqYkDegZhuHxAQeLREm8-GRUYpiN-_W1rnUAat509A_SsERzamFtZPoGc-FbKgJ3wske5HqEF9EpLJfxI9rNnUKdUO3lUH5ZLVtA3UrRSqe_NPfzJFnLewy1xG5Gi/s400/marbleheadgreen.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5057028803754990098" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCF2sbrwxqUYIE1aTNClojb7erkpg0UdDG31cJG4Gva4Y-5hir1QwrrjZBNB3tzAlfbFPR5SD97c-ExYaoZ-UB3J7gtUCv7xodWepfFSyWnMDMHDWmfw7L9LOEGxqdIe2rpricq9Bf_x_F/s1600-h/flowertuft.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCF2sbrwxqUYIE1aTNClojb7erkpg0UdDG31cJG4Gva4Y-5hir1QwrrjZBNB3tzAlfbFPR5SD97c-ExYaoZ-UB3J7gtUCv7xodWepfFSyWnMDMHDWmfw7L9LOEGxqdIe2rpricq9Bf_x_F/s400/flowertuft.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5057025075723377154" /></a><br />This is a picture of Marble Head light house that is in the area, a nice place to visit and sit a while.

Do you have special lights that also light up your life? <br /><br />Sharon KSharonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02149427425753264266noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018382715774225479.post-60978251638855874152007-04-18T16:53:00.000-05:002007-04-18T17:47:19.412-05:00So Sow..........Christmas In April............?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RiaXGlCnl0I/AAAAAAAAAdo/yR3VpRaLc7s/s1600-h/MVC-048S.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RiaXGlCnl0I/AAAAAAAAAdo/yR3VpRaLc7s/s400/MVC-048S.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5054893771048064834" border="0" /></a>There is still a cold chill in the air, I am tired of spending so much time in side while waiting for the sun to shine and the breeze to warm up out side. I am thinking Christmas in April. I have made a decision that this is the year that I will make all of my Christmas gifts. I have wanted to do this for many years......and this is the year. So(sow) this year I will do..........<br /> I have to find craft projects that I can do in the evening while watching TV. I am not a talented person when it comes to sowing but I can learn. My first project will be making these darling little jackets made our of a sweatshirt, then adding the sailboat or snowman. I can do this.........yes I can????? I think it would be fun to share ideas for home made gifts for birthday or holiday gifts........in April???<br /> Yes because I do need to start in April and do not want to wait until November and then say ( I wish I would have started this project months ago. So if there is any one out there in our blogging group who would like to share ideas about home made gifts please do so. I do not know how to make one of the cute little badges that some put on there post when they want to share an idea...............so if any one out there would like to join in ....my( Christmas in April ) idea and knows how to make a cute little badge please do so.<br /> Any one with me???????????? I hope so.............<br /> Sharon KSharonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02149427425753264266noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018382715774225479.post-63948030130089322062007-04-12T09:15:00.000-05:002007-04-12T10:12:33.218-05:00I Remember When...........Now Underdtand Why.......My Mother..Ada Amelia<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtE_Sxg_Y_SVXsDF9BRaO09PpzSLWf7oJzbbZMpXcXL7ZBRN4QNT09Z80XWbhsHDv3Nu2NZknuBRziK1FM2dA1PXAkyoVtnZHbiHI2wbfFX4jPilxA0zzh767p4nS3EjGHYKquTNTNEuVV/s1600-h/MVC-003S.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtE_Sxg_Y_SVXsDF9BRaO09PpzSLWf7oJzbbZMpXcXL7ZBRN4QNT09Z80XWbhsHDv3Nu2NZknuBRziK1FM2dA1PXAkyoVtnZHbiHI2wbfFX4jPilxA0zzh767p4nS3EjGHYKquTNTNEuVV/s320/MVC-003S.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052554155856201442" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjudXcA9Q_G2I8vGZWYf3aYLe6I93Qkod744BCZOpAAcyOeqI3ZJLhK9vFuAeJ3aiBluzeAFC9QsbL6xRmMjMlM-Er59rVlYz5QAx-gljtv-lXuaSLYnPewqBAPLlUWg-xwD7D50x3V2Xha/s1600-h/coastal%2520view%2520by%2520chiu.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjudXcA9Q_G2I8vGZWYf3aYLe6I93Qkod744BCZOpAAcyOeqI3ZJLhK9vFuAeJ3aiBluzeAFC9QsbL6xRmMjMlM-Er59rVlYz5QAx-gljtv-lXuaSLYnPewqBAPLlUWg-xwD7D50x3V2Xha/s320/coastal%2520view%2520by%2520chiu.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052550058457401010" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF_Y8763VUv7oP12iG5FTev3rMZ6jNmzIn8L38MufEcnxfyFmmH7FNGbGtCfowhSNOOPMreOrNP4CrKnywnA89P3H7SzGrWudhlt4J0CN9xNQ8uIyzaWyM__yacHIbBuJ3Gp-GZEdtnTUO/s1600-h/untitled.bmp"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 133px; height: 177px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF_Y8763VUv7oP12iG5FTev3rMZ6jNmzIn8L38MufEcnxfyFmmH7FNGbGtCfowhSNOOPMreOrNP4CrKnywnA89P3H7SzGrWudhlt4J0CN9xNQ8uIyzaWyM__yacHIbBuJ3Gp-GZEdtnTUO/s320/untitled.bmp" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052552613962942162" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> I now sit in my lovely country home, which I call Amelia Rose Cottage. I sit and think why did I want the cottage look. Then I reflected on my life , and the wonderful memories of growing up at Silver Lake in Michigan. My parents had a small cottage at the lake, it was small but held many family members and friends. I learned how to drive on the roads that led to Devils Lake where we danced at the pavilion and roller skated the evenings away. I grew up there and now understand I want to again have the feel of living in a cottage.<br /> One of my favorite flowers are roses, I also like daisy's and geraniums, but the beauty of a rose stands out as a favorite.<br /> I am sure I have shared with you that my mother's middle name was Amelia, she was named after her Aunt Amelia. When Tammy had a little girl she named her Lindsey and wanted her middle name to be Amelia, named after my mothers middle name. Of course I was delighted with the choice of Lindsey Amelia's name.<br /> The above pictures show the reason why I chose the name of my new home<br /> AMELIA ROSE COTTAGE<br /> The sun room is finished, the curtains are hung, all we have to do is wait for the sun shine and warm weather to enjoy the new little cottage at the lake. Memories have been transformed in to the here and now at Amelia Rose Cottage<br /></span>Sharonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02149427425753264266noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018382715774225479.post-75400683451097416352007-04-10T08:50:00.000-05:002007-04-10T09:37:28.313-05:00A Very Special Thank You<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RhuWrTQ7hjI/AAAAAAAAAZ0/oeXlc0M7zec/s1600-h/MVC-001S.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_9pHjBEQCSRg/RhuWrTQ7hjI/AAAAAAAAAZ0/oeXlc0M7zec/s320/MVC-001S.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5051797077675968050" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">I want to send a special thank you to Nancy Jo for sending me a lovely home made card and beautiful vintage cards. </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">.

She changed her name with out changing her blog and will help me do the same. So soon I will have a new home and a new blog name. I just have so much to do....

It is truly looking like my country cottage, and every thing is looking just like I pictured in my mind. The red bedroom with one wall finished in the wallpaper I posted a few weeks ago looks wonderful. </div><div>In another week the pod that left Florida with all our belongings will be in the front of the cottage condo. And all my dreams will come true. I wanted to move back to Ohio to be near family, I wanted a home in Port Clinton near our summer place. I wanted to make the condo feel like a country cottage and it is all about to happen. </div><br /><div>I am a perfect example of a person who let go and let God......I have wanted to come back home for the last three years but when you are married you have to give and take. I had to wait till the time was right for Charlie. Well that time came and all is well and I am so thankful for all that I have. We went to my granddaughter Jessica's 23rd. birthday last night. It is the first time in eight years that I have been home and able to go to the family celebration for her.
