BREAK for a day
Sorry about not posting on Friday, and now I need to take a day off tomorrow. I have a lot going on personally and I am just exhausted. I just need to take a day off to relax and I promise to be back soon!

QUOTE: Mirror Mirror
Dorothy Draper
"Mirrors have come to mean much more than the original 'Looking Glass'. They are now a part of the decorative scheme of a modern home. By using them, there are no dark, gloomy corners, no drab caverns for halls. There can be a feeling of freedom, light, air space."
Love her home!

Stunningly beautiful Gardens
The weather has been very odd lately. This past weekend it was quite warm for January, I played out back with my dog in just a sweater..... it had me dreaming of what I would like to plant this spring. When I stubbled upon Sabine's photography, I was amazed at the lighting and the contrast of colours. The beauty she captured makes me happy!

SUNDAY: Sadness
In Memory of Willa Ilona Alciatore nee Gauld
b. 23 Oct 1941 d. 31 Jan 2010
My sweet aunt passed away this afternoon. I go from sadness to relief. She was in such agony, the pain unbearable. Her quality of life was restricted to a bed and she was so sad not able to do anything!
I will remember her laugh and her smile.
She was such a beautiful women and will be terribly missed.
Here she is on her wedding day to Dave Alciatore. She just recently gave me her wedding dress! I love that she wore pink!
Here she is with my cousin Tammy. It is very sad, we don't know where Tammy is so she doesn't even know that her own mother passed away. {She took off about 4 years ago.} xx love you Aunt Ilona!
