Hibiscus Happiness

Good Morning!  And yes, it is a good morning here in the cottage - It's your typical Autumn kind of day, somewhat overcast this morning and it may possibly rain - I don't mind if it does, since today is not a "going to work " day....... and its, at least at this point, a 'taking your time' to get things done, kinda day!  
 So why Hibiscus Happiness for the title??  After my last post I had a comment left by a lovely fellow blogger that did indeed sum things up in a nutshell! Also during the week, DH and I have been able to randomly "mull things over" and have decided at this point in time to just continue to remain here in our little cottage on our 1/4 acre block with my very special little craft cabin and continue to make mortgage payments (a large debt with only a few short years left till DH will need to retire). I'm sure we are not alone in this headache/heartache and   Perhaps in the next year or two a miracle will occur that sees our mortgage paid out.  

The found Hexie Flowers and scraps

 Anyhow, this heartfelt comment  sent me over to her blog to see what her latest post might be ....... indeed, it seemed to "sing" to me and did indeed lift my spirits ..... ok, it was the big wonderful group of pictures in the header first with the lovely cheerful Hibiscus flowers and the stitching of the girls having coffee and cake lol....... Then I got to the post ...It was all about getting back to doing those paper pieced projects again....... and that kinda reminded me of a much simpler, slower and happy pace at which I was living life back a couple of years ago...... So I went rummaging in my cabin to find the tin that held those  little hexie flowers I was making  each Wednesday ..... I'll be able to start working on those again........ 

and  I had also begun a hexie project that would hopefully turn into a quilt for our bed!  What do you know, the container for those was right beside the tin of hexies, so it has been pulled out as well ....... So I am linking up with Anthea from Hibiscus Stitches today and these UFO's will now begin to get some attention again :)   Thanks Anthea xo






Just yesterday I came across some research that mentioned using rosemary tea to assist with reduction of prostate cancer cell growth  - DH has never had a herbal tea in his life, but he is giving this a go and I guess we shall see if he continues with it, what becomes from it......... Anybody else have info on Rosemary Tea?
