Each Monday at the beginning of another week I try to remember that as I get busy with work, home and family I mustn't go through my household in full gear and get caught up in my busyness. When I do that my house begin to feel empty and hollow; them I start to feel stress and tense. That is when I make it a point of taking time to play a little with what I enjoy. I called it playing house.Here are some pictures of some of my things.
My little bells, that I use to call my Angels.
My good luck cricket.
I love my orchids.
The real joy of life is in its play. Play is anything we do for the joy and love of doing it, apart from any profit, compulsion, or sense of duty. It is the real joy of living.

Thanks for your kind comment about singing. It led me to visit your lovely blog and discover a delightful place. I love your style and your substance.
Virginia, it is nice to meet you today. You are so right about time for ourselves. It is so easy to work too much. That dust will be back in a day. I love your treasures and you display them beautifully.
Take Care, Jeanne
Good Morning Virginia! Thank you so much for visiting my blog! I hope you enjoy the tea and come back to see me again. Your pictures are lovely. I love the hats on the wall.
I agree... I love to "play house" I wish we didn't have to work at all.
But then how would we afford all of the pretties that we are blessed with? :) Enjoy the week!
