{Apple Addiction}

Yes, for quite some time I had been eyeing an APPLE iMac retina display...

We did visit the Apple Store in Toronto, in June.

This photo is from the Apple Store, Fifth Avenue in New York City...
A beautiful glass cube!

Photo taken on August 28, during our sight seeing tour by bus.

Yes, after our June visit to Toronto, Canada, I did study some reviews on Apple iMac...
More and more I got convinced this would become our next choice!

BUT when I got this message on my HP PC, I had to act fast...

Finally saying goodbye to this problem set and all its spaghetti wires...

We had to have the hard drive replaced twice!
This was a display model at Costco Wholesale and the hard drive did not work when we got home.
One more time we had to replace it.
Only 4 years old but I don't regret for letting this noisy tower go!

Driving the 240 km one way, to our nearest Apple Store in Atlanta...

Happy new owner of this iMac...

Setting it up at the Apple Store...

Goodbye spaghetti junction!

On August 20, it proudly stood on my desk at home!
So happy with it!

So far it works great and I would not want to ever go back to a PC!

Video and photo viewing quality is unexcelled! 

With 2 iPhones, mine being the iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air and now iMac it looks like we're Apple Addicts indeed but we both do LOVE them.

Do you also own an Apple, or several Apples?

{Blossoms in December with Sunshine}

So far our December month is bringing us lots of sunshine.

Let me show you some of our December Blossoms...

One of our climbing roses still was yielding us such beauties.

Shown in a French crystal Baccarat perfume bottle.

Of course, our Camellias are also blooming...

These white Verbena's happily continue blooming alongside the driveway.

From our garden we yielded 7 stems with white Paperwhites, that perfectly filled this tablet with fixed vases (7).

It was a gift that I received for doing a program about Indonesia, for a Women's Study Club here in Dublin, GA.

They presented me with this precious gift box!

Love the snow crystals...

Are you also having high 60s, 70s and low 80s in your area?

We LOVE this type of weather!

That's our weather forecast, up till almost Christmas.

{Glass Christmas ROSE Ornaments from Anonymous Blogger}

We ALL love parcels in the mail don't we?

~ 

Well, especially if a sweet Blogger Friend is sending such a perfect gift!

Look here: Glass Christmas ROSE Ornaments... and all 8 of them arrived in perfect condition.

A true BLESSING in many ways.

Lavender being my favorite color, together with the teal, these glass roses made for a perfect wreath with some fresh Rosemary sprigs.

Thank you ever so much for this precious gift dear Anonymous!

Someone knowing very well about my addiction to Roses and Angels...

Took this photo outside in the last rays of sunshine.

We both went with two of our kitties to the Vet, before I could make my photos...

This LED Pillar Candle did just perfectly fit the wreath that I created with some florist wire.

Flameless candle is also kitty-safe!

I've placed them on a large 12.25 inch or 31 cm Pillivuyt serving plate.

Don't you love these colors?!

With the lavender they are also most fitting for the Advent Season.

How very thoughtful in multiple ways...

Wishing you all a blessed Advent Season!
