Miss Charlotte's Indoor She Shed

It’s Christmas and time for miracles. My darling husband is currently in the hospital. He has had a collapsed lung and a heart attack! They’re working on stabilizing his heart then making sure the lungs are working ok.
If we could have your good wishes and prayers sure would help me. They’re working hardest to keep him alive. Thanks everyone! I know we have some awesome friends and neighbors!

I was young once . . . to all my female friends from 50 years and up... most of us are going through the next phase of our lives. We're at that age where we see wrinkles, gray hair and extra pounds. Menopause may have appeared or just waiting around the corner. We see the cute 25-year-olds and reminisce. But we were also 25, just as they will one day be our age. ***We aren't the "girls in their summer clothes" anymore*** What they bring to the table with their youth and zest, we bring our wisdom and experience. We have raised families, run households, paid the bills, dealt with diseases, sadness and everything else life has assigned us. Some of us have lost those that were nearest and dearest to us. We are survivors... we are warriors in the quiet... we are women...like a classic car or a fine wine. Even if our bodies may not be what they once were, they carry our souls, our courage and our strength. We shall all enter this chapter of our lives with humility, grace and pride over everything we have been through and should never feel bad about getting older. It's a privilege that is denied to so many.

I just want to post this for further actions. This person saw one of my wreath or swag and she wanted one for herself. I asked her what she was looking for. She told me and I created this! She said she loved. Then she wanted to know how she could pay for it! Because this hadn’t been listed I suggested that she goes Venmo. She didn’t like that. I gave her a couple of other ideas. But she thought I was trying to scam her. It took me a couple days to understand what was going on. If I was scamming someone it wouldn’t have taken me two days realize that. I love make wreaths and swags. So I guess this one is back ion the market! Thank You!

I absolutely love this story........ It made me cry. Very touching.
"An 87 Year Old College Student Named Rose
The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know.
I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned round to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me
with a smile that lit up her entire being.
She said, “Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?”
I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a giant squeeze.
“Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?” I asked.
She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, and have a couple of kids…”
“No seriously,” I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.
“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.
After class we walked to the student union building and shared a chocolate milkshake. We became instant friends. Every day for the
next three months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always mesmerized listening to this “time machine”
as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.
Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students. She was living it up.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I’ll never forget what she taught us. She was
introduced and stepped up to the podium.
As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her three by five cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “I’m sorry I’m so jittery. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me! I’ll never get my speech back in order so let me just tell
you what I know.”
As we laughed she cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop
playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day.
You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die.
We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it!There is a huge difference between growing
older and growing up.
If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years old.
If I am eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eighty-eight.
Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunity in change.
Have no regrets.
The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those
with regrets.”
She concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Rose.”
She challenged each of us to study the lyrics and live them out in our daily lives.
At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died
peacefully in her sleep.
Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in tribute to the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’s
never too late to be all you can possibly be .When you finish reading this, please send this peaceful word of advice to your friends and family, they’ll really enjoy it!
These words have been passed along in loving memory of ROSE.
REMEMBER, GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY. GROWING UP IS
OPTIONAL.
We make a Living by what we get, We make a Life by what we give."

My Why

Why did I decide to start my own shop. Well, after 50 years in hairdressing I needed to retired and sleep. After that first year of retirement I packed up 33 years of living in Alaska and move to the lower forty eight. After I got settled in I started looking around for jobs. I decided that working for the other guy just wasn't my cup of tea. I was looking through Pinterest and saw this video of them making a Sunflower wreath. It was Damon of Decoexchange. I looked at the instructions then looked Decoexchange. I've been dabbling wreaths for quite a while. I was running out of family. I needed to make wreaths and sale online. I'm still trying to post my wreaths.
