More Inspired......

......this time!  I guess I was so tired yesterday. nothing seemed exciting to me yesterday when going through these old photos.  I've just returned from a marvelous massage, and my lookout has improved!

Cottage House Primitives.....an amazing shop we discovered in Lodi, Wisconsin.  It was not far from The Country Sampler or from J.J Stitches.  So if you are ever in the area this is a must stop!  And if I remember correctly there was a sweet little quilt shop across the street, and a fabulous ice cream shop!

The shop was over flowing with unique and fabulous furnishing for the home.

I love this sentiment in the picture.

There was a fabulous selection of beautiful wool, and inspiring projects and patterns.

I loved wandering through this coziness goodness!

I realize I've taken the same photo from many different directions......wanting to not leave any of those wonderful stacks of gorgeous wool out of the picture.

This bear was Mr. Personality!  Worn and loved.

I will share much more tomorrow.

I have just finished reading The Lightless Sky, by Gulvali Passarlay.  It is the account of a 12 year old boy and his brother being sent from Afghanistan by their mother at the time of the U.S. and coalition partners invasion of that country. It provided me with  information from a different perspective about that time in history.  Understanding is what we all need of each other.  I want to share a comment about the author, who is the 12 year old boy in the story.  He writes the account after he has asylum in England and attending college. "The enemy of love is not hate, it is indifference.  The enemy of love is turning away from those in need.  The enemy of love is doing nothing when you can help your fellow man."  I have much to consider since reading this account.
