How to hang on to that Vacation feeling?????

By -


I loved the beach art on Sanibel island. How do I stay as carefree as this beach girl?
I am back to work but it was a smooth reentry!
Speaking of re entry's the first night in Florida we heard the sonic boom as the Space shuttle
reentered the atmosphere for landing. It was very neat to know that it was the shuttle landing
at Kennedy Space Center.

I will show you my denim like sock yarn soon.

It is so great to have Cricket home. We have lots of work to do.
Guess what is his favorite thing to try to play with?
Wooden needles and yarn........

I think the command will be : NO Knitting!


I talk more in the comments!

Oh, good luck, with holding onto the vacation feeling and "no knitting." My girls have finally learned, although Gretchen still likes to caress cashmere...

Glad you had a great vacation! My little pets (kids) love the knitting as well.

I love the beach girl! We were in the bleachers for a moon launch once many years ago. I cried like a baby. I mean it--big sobs!

Can't wait to see the sock yarn.

We say "leave it" to Macy and she does, but Max thinks we mean to pick it up here and leave it over there. He's hopeless!

OHHHHH, I love Sanibel! I haven't seen beach art there. Wait, yes I did, once. West Gulf drive beaches are my favorite.

Hey--I'm retiring in June and moving to Big Pine Key!!! Next time you come to Florida we'll have to get together. The house won't be decent until we sell the house up here, but it's liveable. If I get an early retirement incentive, it's going to get the pool up and running. I NEED that pool.

I plan to get a yearly pass to the Florida state parks so I can go to Bahia Honda whenever I want to. I cannot wait!

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
