Don't get me wrong I love vacations, but nothing feels as good as coming home and sleeping in your own bed. Now I have a full Sunday to get ready to go back to work. Believe it or not, I did not get much accomplished in the knitting or crochet department. Don't ask me why. Who doesn't dream of knitting by the pool?
I brought along a quick knit scarf, that was perfect for sitting outside and catching up on my reading.This of course was a must since the nephew was making sure that I was up to date on the latest rap videos, music and popular terms such as, "That's salty".
The time spent with my nephew was priceless.(I already miss him). I can't forget my constant four legged companions.
This is Riley and below is Sugar.
BTW-Although they looks very angelic in their pics, they were extremely naughty!!!! :)
Ah, and then there was food. My body is completely rebelling after matching the eating habits of a 16 year old for 7 days. We are talking about Wings, Cheese Steaks, Taquitos, Subs, and lots of chocolate. The nephew made brownies.
I must tell you I did drop by my casa to check my mail. I got an extremely lovely surprise package from my dearest friend Ruth. Inside a new knitting bag to replace my soup stained one.
As well as some Spring flowers to brighten up my book shelf. ( I need to remember to take this down when the sister visits, she will steal them)
Priorities today should be laundry, grocery shopping, and cleaning. Most likely I will be working on squares for my Raverly swap and visiting blogland. :)
Since my priorities seem to be in place, I am off to clean knit/crochet.
Enjoy a song (my mom's fav) and your Sunday!

P.S. I completely failed on this Potholder Swap. Maybe next year- boo! :(
Welcome Home sweet girl!!! Happy you had a good time with the Nephew...aren't they great...you get to give them back...:) :) :)
UUMM, if the sister wants a garland....she can make one herself, now that she can yield a hook...good practice for her...

YOU'RE HOME!!! Not that you were terribly missed or anything like that... nope... not at all... but let me just say that for future nephew visits - you'll need a laptop! Andi-withdraw is no fun... lol.
I am so glad that your priorities are in order and you got straight to the yarny business. I love your new bag from your sweet friend, Ruth. It is just too cute for words! Puts my re-purposed lunch tote to shame.. lol.
Welcome home and I hope the week after vacation when you have to go back to work doesn't suck the life right out of ya - it always felt to me like my desk threw up while I was away and it took me two weeks to catch up... then again, it took me a week to get out of vacation mode so perhaps that had something to do with it too.. lol.

Welcome back from what sounds like an idyllic vacation! I love that you topped it off with another ADELE video. Perfect!
I'll be sending you an email soon -- I have a proposition for you! You get first right of refusal. :-)
