Nothing spectacular....just wanted you to know that I am home!
Had a wonderful trip with the children, non stop laughter & hiking & eating & adventures & memories!
Here's some teasers, cause you KNOW there's more to come when I get a minute!!!!
A young man from Brazil took this picture for us at the Butchart Gardens!
Kalen & I standing in the Pacific Ocean at Port Renfrew;
Vanessa wouldn't cause it was cold!
Here she is after our 2 km hike (and nobody took the water), washing her feet with her bottle!
Kalen & I drank our warm bottles!!!
Everywhere we went in the wilderness the signs say,
"Bears can run fast.
Cougars can run faster.
DON'T RUN."
Vanessa said she was gonna run,
Kalen & I were gonna let her........bait you know!hahahaha
I won this paper from SU!
11 packages of their design paper in the new catalogue!
I can't wait to play!
We've had some issues here this past week, which is why I haven't blogged.
And of course its crazybizzy at work, so I've been tired!
I also had 2 AVON orders to sort & deliver when I got home!
There's still some in my van.
Gotta take a minute to go visit my peeps at the OFH!
I had my yearly (it's not even yearly, it's 14 months in between now) check up,
because I've had the BIG C!
Relax people, it's been 10 years!
I.AM.A.SURVIVOR!
Had an eye exam, which had to be the full meal deal cause I've had a detached retina!
Ordered new lenses!
Told them when I had to wear my glasses all the time I'd get new frames!
Those people are pretty persuasive!
The water that was put in last fall is leaking under the mobile home!
Hopefully the guys are here tomorrow to fix it so I can finish that project!
I ordered a new bed & frame just before I went away; it came yesterday!
I bought beer, & fed the gf's that came to help me get it in the house last night!
We had a fire and visit!
Today has been a make work project, as I took out the old mattresses & frame!
Cleaned the carpets, drapes, etc. & set up the new bed;
which HOLY MOLY is a Princess & the Pea bed!!!
In between doing laundry, working on the Strawberry bed, I KNOW, I KNOW, it was going to be done weeks ago........I'm on it!
The weather's tropical so I'm outside........
the tomatoes & strawberries ae producing like nobodys business!
I'll be coming around slowly to see what's new with you!
Just wanted to check in!
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

Hi Gail,
Sounds like you had a marvelous time.
Sorry about the glasses and check up. We are tough old birds. I think my c.a. is now 44 years past. It could so easily have gone the other way.
Nice that you have a new bed.
Wish my tomatoe crop would have been big. I had 8 tomatoes. Oh well, better that than none. They were pretty tasty.
I have been downright slothful about card making these days.
Got a Silhouette Cameo and have finally gotten one card from it after ruining 6 pieces of cardstock. LOL Trust me to have to try for something more complicated than just cutting it out from an svg. Oh sorry, I did the first card perfectly and then tried a fancy print and cut.
Enjoy your bounty.

Oh what fun you must have had wading in the ocean. The scenery is gorgeous as are the photogenic people in the pictures. Bet that new bed feels good and how nice to have an updated bedroom. I might not be around for a little while. Having a mastectomy tomorrow but will stop by as soon as I can to see what else I've missed. Should be a treat to get new glasses, etc. I always like the new frames and the fact I can see much clearer after a day or 2. You look good in glasses anyway. BTW......the new do is very attractive. Take care my friend and I'll stop again as soon as I can. "Hugs" Carol

Love how you wanted to "sacrifice" Vanessa as bait - but it sounds like the perfect survival strategy! Can't wait to see what you make of these papers! And it's sheer bliss sleeping in a new bed like that, isn't it? Good luck with the leaking water pipe (?) and the strawberry beds!
Wow! My head is twirling with all your busyness, lol!! Sounds like you are all having a wonderful time, and that makes me very, very happy. Enjoy your new bed, new paper, and garden yummies!!!
Great photos ... sounds like you had a great time.
