On my days off I find myself paralyzed to think of much but work.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you didn’t know I am a RN at one of the largest hospitals in the US.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I did try to do a little decorating for Easter/ spring.</div>

Two of my dear friends from work and I went to 1515 about 3 weeks ago for a girls trip we had planned for months. We had a blast, eating out, shopping and visiting with the twins. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were decided to cheer ourselves up we sent pictures to each other of what we bought on our trip and how we decorated.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We have worked together for about 15 years, through kids graduating, marriages, births, husbands illnesses. I am so blessed to work with wonderful coworkers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some I even hired as new graduates when I was a manager. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are doing our best to keep each other positive. But we are scared, we are cath lab nurses being pulled apart to go do other duties as all elective procedures are cancelled. This means we rarely see or work with our work family anymore. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I believe I could face anything with the team I belong to, but it scary doing it apart. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So far we have not had to go to the Covid floors. But I know my old floors that I was a Manager of are....and when I saw a picture of them in their PPE, I cried. Many in the picture I hired as baby nurses. I still feel responsible for them. They are on the front line now. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started my career 40 years ago this year and not long after that started then AIDS epidemic and retirement 5 yrs off I see I am finishing it with the Covid pandemic. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So do me a favor.....stay home! Say prayers for everyone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you get to stay home and get paid don’t complain.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many of us go work feeling everyday with a pit in our stomach as we drive to work.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you for recognizing all the people keeping us going, RTs, EMTs, policeman, gas stations grocery workers, and restaurants. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So share some beauty in the world today.</div>

As usual it was a wonderful Christmas, </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
As 2020 starts I think of all the things I wanted </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to do around the house this year and didn’t get done...again!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I think I will make a list to refer to over the year and see if I can accomplish more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also hope to post more! </div>

Cousin Fred who I mention, his daughter from Seattle bought a little home down the street from 1515 to vacation at when she is in town. I have been so excited for her, because it reminds me of when I bought 1515. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Her beautiful dining room, she brought this gorgeous dining set from Seattle that she got on Craigslist. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Just back from a weeks vacation in Pennsylvania!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were gone a week and stayed in historic inns and a B&B while we were there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I probably didn't take the best pictures </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but will share them with you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first stop was in Farmington Pa. We stayed there because our first stop was going to be Fallingwater, the Frank Lloyd Wright home.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We stayed at the <a href="http://www.stonehouseinn.com/">Stone House Inn</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Built in 1822 on what I refer to as Old Route 40 (my childhood home sits on this)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or the National Trail that took everyone east and west.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our room was in the original part of course, not fancy, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but comfortable and clean.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our only complaint was we wanted to watch the Cardinals in the playoffs and the TV only had them in Spanish! Mr. went to the bar and couldn't get them to put it on either.</div>

One of the former Presidents of our Genealogy Society said one day " I wish we could have a old fashion ladies tea" I said...OK we will!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It took a year of planning and we did it last April, but with all the teas everyone is having over the Downton Abbey movie I thought I would show you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Historical Society owns a beautiful home built in the 1890's by one of my cousins that was a architect. It was perfect to host a tea. I will show you more interior shots and the end of the post.</div>

We decided it WOULD be like our Grandmothers Eastern Star, DAR teas of the 1920's-1960's. Even on dishes. So we began collecting, tea pots, tea cups, sandwich trays you name it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Luckily one day my Girlfriend and I were out antiquing and a dealer told me about a local Catholic school that was closing and that they use to have tea's. I could stop by and pick up what I wanted.</div>

I hope your enjoying me showing you what is around my kitchen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Still pull stuff out of cabinets, nothing goes back unless I need it or until it is clean!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One thing I treasure is my Maternal Grandmother Cuckoo Clock wall pocket.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always hung in her kitchen, and through out the year it would have different flowers displayed in it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
it normally has the pine cones hanging down but when I cleaned it the string broke, so I have to find the right size to re string it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
and this one I found at 1515 in 1978 when we cleaned the house out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My paternal Grandmothers. I took it because it reminded me of the one hanging in my other Grandmothers kitchen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are exactly alike, marked Japan and are about 4 min after 2!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I found this one it did not have the pine cones at all for the pendulum. They hang on a small space on a wall as you walk out of my kitchen. And when I see them I think of my Grandmothers.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They probably we popular about the 1950's.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I think I know where they got them!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
my very favorite store EVER. Benedict's 5&10 on the square in Charleston.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Upstairs were the stationery items, of course the candy counter and the roasting nuts. Downstairs was all the housewares, pots, pans, florals and decorative items.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I have it my mind they came from there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It closed in 1984 after Walmart came to town. It is a bar now but I think of it everytime I walk by</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can still visualize waking down the big staircase, at the bottom of the stairs was a large counter but as you turned left there was always a seasonal display.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was thrilled a few months ago when someone posted a interior pic circa late 40's at Christmas.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And a exterior picture at Christmas.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
the hustle and bustle of the square! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But it is making a comeback. There is now a bookstore, I have 3 friends that have opened antique shops which are very different from each other. A stationery store and a women's clothing shop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And now a brewery/steakhouse is going in the old Department store. I love it, great walk from 1515 to the square.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now here is the beautiful interior</div>

I sometimes think if my Grandmother ever came back to life she would be so happy I still have so many of her things. As I look at this picture it is amazing, I have the dishes, the silverware, the salt n pepper shakers, the cake plate because it turns and plays "Happy Birthday", the flower pots in the window sill, and the letter holder next to the phone I keep my bills in to this day.</div>

Its 2019 and I miss blogging so here I am on 4th trying to get back at it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of my presents from my husband centered around the kitchen? hmm</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A new faucet, new stainless steel cart etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And the day after Christmas Mr. was taking everything and I mean EVERYTHING out of the kitchen! Did not even have a chance to take the Christmas stuff down.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have painted the kitchen several times, but time to remove the wallpaper and border, oh my!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It never seems I can find a design I LOVE anymore?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gone are the days I could look through the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
JC Penney catalogue and come up with my design plan. For instance as I went to sleep after we changed the sheets, I looked at my pillow, there was my favorite JC Penney pillowcase, from my original comfort, sheets etc from 1980. It still is in good shape, I still love it. I just can not seem to find things I love anymore?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
so there goes my Herb border, that I even found dishes to match years ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And to my horror he decided to go with GRAY!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But what color do you see here the most!?</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you said, GREEN your correct! Told him my Jadeite, depression ware and pink Pyrex </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
better look good with it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
AND he keeps picking up things and saying "Get rid of this"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
OMGosh! He looks at me and says </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
" I know there is some sentimental story behind it?"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well YES!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Stainless Steel cart is to replace my Butcher Block</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, I have had it since about 1983, when I look at it I think of the tornado that missed me by 2 houses, the roof was partially ripped off the Penney store so they had a huge sale.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My Mom and I saw the Butcher Block, so I sat on it while she went to pay for it because people were grabbing and snatching like crazy. So yes, it did have a sentimental story, one my adventures with my Mom I miss so much. So the butcher block will find a home in the backyard cottage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
he has it all painted, next we are getting new cabinet fronts. We decided on shaker and after much discussion I finally get cup pulls on the drawers.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I said nothing goes back in, until everything has been sorted and washed </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and put back where I want it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A friend of mine who has a booth at a antique mall is going to take somethings I am going to part with, such as green depression grill plates that do not match my Cameo pattern.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What else can I part with? Most things I have belonged to my Mom, Grandmother and even my Great and GG grandmother. He even thought I could get rid of my Firkin bucket! yikes! NO! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and my GGrandmothers egg basket.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, I am probably too Sentimental. But when I see, touch and feel those pieces I see my Mom and my Grandmother and can feel the emotions of when we used those items together. He is blessed to still have his Mom and 7 siblings.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess it is my way of keeping their memories alive, and it makes me happy.</div>

the room echos without my Hoosier cabinet. And I am caught off guard seeing the reflection of the Christmas tree from the living room in the window.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

My pitchers are all washed. Could not part with any of them!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the left green rose pitcher my Grandmother always had OJ in, pitcher I found at 1515 when it was sold, next is my Grandmother fruit pitcher that always had ice tea.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My Mom's cookie jar she bought when I was about 6 at a antique store, when she died I found her stash of Black Crow licorice in it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then my pitcher I bought in 1978 in Colorado as a 18 yr old.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
My Fortnum and Mason spice cabinet my Mom bought for me on one of our trips to England.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The oil and vinegar set Mr and I bought in a favorite little kitchen shop not far from our hotel in Paris.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mr wanted a new stainless utensil holder, instead I did order a new one to match the spice cabinet better. Hate to see my Herbs go!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So come along over the next month and see my treasures!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Last week started the annual Christmas Shopping!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First some of us from work went to wonderful Tea Room and Gift Shop for a fabulous lunch and shopping.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How about a roast beef sandwich, with Gorgonzola cheese on sweet rosemary bread and lobster bisque soup and lastly a mocha coffee angel food cake!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What did I get in shopping?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I bought myself a cute wire Christmas bracelet, snowflake earrings and necklace.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With Mr. bringing home a paycheck, I feel I can spend some $$ on myself these days.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieugfRVZxN-w9gxGgndox8soFw3eLpeSW6nJ4o5BKznA0fAEU6kl0IH5hOv3M34udVfB4LS5P9dMuMj3ge_8uhKcPFy3bjqRQuug-BDBCuQHj_LYhf4OqIbZ-Tx_I6d6MDcQuvezmtEgg/s1600/Fall+090.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieugfRVZxN-w9gxGgndox8soFw3eLpeSW6nJ4o5BKznA0fAEU6kl0IH5hOv3M34udVfB4LS5P9dMuMj3ge_8uhKcPFy3bjqRQuug-BDBCuQHj_LYhf4OqIbZ-Tx_I6d6MDcQuvezmtEgg/s400/Fall+090.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so I bought myself a canvas twinkle light picture.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have bought them for everyone else but myself!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then some antique shopping but did not find anything else.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next day my SIL and I headed out to some places that are only open on weekends? This seems to be a new trend around here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Trendy Cottage is open 1 weekend a month and boy am I bad when they are open!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

This last weekend was a special one, it was the 100th Anniversary of the Ashmore Presbyterian Church building.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was my ancestors church of my Maternal Grandmother. The church itself is 176 years old but the building was built in 1917.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I realized a couple of years ago when I was scanning their records that the anniversary was coming up. Of course, you know me I had to ask if anyone was doing something to commemorate the date?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have so much documentation I decided to write a book to mark the occasion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
just loved doing this, using my family records and pictures to put this together.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The church is small and several people did a great job putting together a 2 day event.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Funny thing is, if I go back far enough the members of the church are related to me, and their ancestors were the ones that founded the church in 1841. </div>

Day 2, was met with my anticipation as the members were hoping for a good turn out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They even replicated the program that was presented on the same day 100 yrs ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sitting in the pew singing the same songs my Grandmother sang on that date in 1917 was a special feeling. I was so happy the church is still standing, that people still love and attend the church.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I could feel my ancestors spirits.<br />

In May our beautiful 100 yr old oak tree was struck by lighting! Our arborist thought it would live and looked great all summer until August, one branch died, then another, then another.</div>

Yes $4000 later my beautiful tree is gone and all that is left looks like a nuclear blast went off.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
the beauty is gone, this is this summer when it was doing well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

So do I change my blog header?</div>

Other huge news, my husband sold his building and closed his 100 yr old business.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What a blessing! He got full price for his building and the people that bought it love it and are putting a distillery in it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even more, one of his customers called him and asked him to come work for them!! He set his own salary, FULL benefits after 1 month, and finally a great paycheck! The money does not go to pay the electric, for paint, etc. M-F 7-3:30. We are not use to spending this much time together, but it is great and what I had always hoped for us. I admire him for starting over at 60, that is not easy for anyone. But he has never had any other job than at the family business.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

100 years ago on May 26, 1917 a tornado stuck where I was born, Charleston IL</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it hit the town next to it first and resulted in over 100 deaths.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As part of the Coles County Genealogical Society we researched the day, it was so fascinating, we ended up having a Memorial Service, 2 of our members put a booklet together with all the names, pictures of their tombstones, obituary and brief bio.</div>
