My little corner

It has been 2 1/2 years, that we have lived here and i am still not done hanging and putting everything up. So woman make honey do lists not me i ask, and if it doesn't happen i will try it my self or a will what. I wasn't in a rush because we have moved every time i get thing just the why i like them so this time i have been very slow to put the house all together.

my little corner has memories, grandma's chair that sat in her home next to the window, my grandpa's table he got out of the trash and repaired. Items from Brazil that were a gift to my late husband and myself from Albie. He was an exchange student that lived at his home when he was a young man. And i find my self longing to take a trip when i look at this pic he had taken when he visited there, and a pair of antique binoculars everything in this corner has memories.

A fountain i came home to after visting the kids for my last anniversary, some plants the one in the red dish for Tom and Helen who both past on last year, the little church Hubby got me as a gift. They my be thing to some but they are memories to me each plant, items etc; i find peace in this corner i set and read sometimes so adding the items to the wall on the top pic, it is feeling a little more like home. what is you special space or corner that you go to just be?

Talk soon. s

WHO's JOB IS IT TO ANYWAYS

A little history i think my very first job was to clean, one of the gifts we recieved was no allowances for just being a kid. The first time i can remember someone cleaning my home
was being married to #2. The nicest 3 lady's i also remember the day they said they couldn't clean any more. Ah then i have paid many a young lady in my time to come and help me clean.
here in so calif., you have to come up with your own FLAKES at this time of year so sad no snow. I flaked having a fever and all, i didn't want to get her sick. So for now my home will have to wait, hoping to get every thing together before Christmas.
I have a lot of Hopes and dreams they all rest in God. I am blessed there are thous out there to help me clean when the time comes again. There is a time for every thing, that brings me peace. Who's job is it to clean in your house and what gift can your remember form your youth that has molded you?

TITLE THIS POEM MONDAY

LAST WEEK WE HAD ONLY ONE RESONCE THANK YOU AMY FOR STOPING BY LAST WEEK : so this week i will give you a hint; this one was writen by someone i know personal and is in a book he wrote. Enjoy!

The cable car carries me to the top of the mountain,
The sunlight of autumn caresses my head.
Vast clouds and mists fill the sky,
The Capital has disappeared,
only the sun shines!

The Fragrant Hills are radiant;
Autumn leaves, red as fire,
Have spread their sweet scent far and near.
The chillness of fall has already come;
Were i never again to see their rich color,
My heart would break!

Can you tell me who wrote this, or the title? last weeks poems "Journey of the Magi"
