Just Checkin' In

Hi everyone!  Remember me?  I haven't abandoned my blog, but we've had a lot going on the past few weeks.  We went to the beach for a long weekend two weeks ago (we missed our annual beach trip this summer because of the kitchen re-model).  In addition, I've been trying to adjust to a new blood pressure medication for the past month, which has proven to be a bit frustrating.  I'm now on my third different prescription because the first two didn't work out.  I think I'm going to be able to tolerate this one, but I have had a few side effects while my body adjusts.

I've been doing some fall decorating in the meantime, and I always enjoy that.  I'll have some pictures to show you next week, but for now, I'm busy getting ready for the Southern Bloggers Conference this coming weekend in Raleigh, North Carolina.   Can you say "road trip"?  :-D

I'm so excited about getting to finally meet (in person) some of the nice women I've communicated with online!  There are so many of you that I would love to see there, but I realize it's too far to travel for some.  Maybe next year.  In the meantime, I'll tell you all about it when I get home.

In the next few weeks, look for a post or two on my fall decorating, a trip to a Virginia winery last autumn, and a long overdue kitchen reveal.  I'd also like to say a big "Thank You" to my newest followers and to all of you who continue to read my posts.  It wouldn't be much fun to do this if I thought no one was interested.  I have truly enjoyed getting to know my fellow bloggers, and I've gotten so many wonderful ideas from your blogs.  It's a great community to be a part of.

I hope you're having a wonderful week, wherever you may be.

Denise
