Sometimes in my state they seem to be like Henny Penny, "the sky is falling." Yet, overall it is a good service to have some idea of what is coming at us. Like your window and cat photo -- she does look like she is watching the storm dwindling along with August days. -- barbaraFolkways Note Bookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07168881905408345126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-14996051901128668862011-08-31T22:15:50.019-04:002011-08-31T22:15:50.019-04:00She's a cutie!She's a cutie!Randyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14324315351283229508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-43825763800416458472011-08-31T20:43:54.058-04:002011-08-31T20:43:54.058-04:00That lace was in our home when I was just a tiny t...That lace was in our home when I was just a tiny thing. I remember my mom washed them, probably once a year, and had this huge wooden frame type of thing, that stood on its own, outside, and the lace was stretched to dry on little nails all around the perimeter!! I have cut them to make smaller curtains, but they are literally starting to fall apart.<br />Too bad.Elenkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377371859667172825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-67412412217345392512011-08-31T19:53:06.996-04:002011-08-31T19:53:06.996-04:00Glad to hear Irene left you alone (for the most pa...Glad to hear Irene left you alone (for the most part).

I really believe it is far better to be safe than sorry. Yes, sometimes the weathermen sound like they are :crying wolf? but OH how the public would complain if a big storm came along and no one had warned them. It's impossible to please everyone, I'm afraid. I'm sooo glad Irene was less than expected. :)EG CameraGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12803759124643467711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-82760503530724385972011-08-31T14:45:41.400-04:002011-08-31T14:45:41.400-04:00So are lace curtains a theme today (saw brattcats....So are lace curtains a theme today (saw brattcats. . .)?
