August, already?
As for me, I spent the days between conference and surgery on a housecleaning spree. (Channeling Mrs. Ray expecting Betsy or Julia home from a trip, you know.) I get organization frenzy every summer. And my poor garden, oof, after two months of neglect it needed some serious TLC. When it’s too hot to clean or garden, I’ve been embroidering a lot, catching up on Cozy Blue Stitch Club projects.
So I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised to look at my grid today and realize it’s been a week since I posted? I’ve shared tons in my Stories, so it didn’t feel like that much time had passed. But it has! I had hoped to take a little down time in August, but I’m seeing that wasn’t entirely realistic. The multiple trips left me feeling like I could use a vacation, but now I gotta catch up from the trips! Fortunately I love my work. 😄
How about you? Enjoying a low-key summer, or suddenly feeling like fall is peering at you through the window?

I’m glad WB is recovering well. Thank Goodness.
I feel like 2019 has passed me by. I definitely have not been living my best life this year. Time to make some lists and turn it around…….
Enjoy having your sweet ones all home! xo

Dottie’s enchanted art table is a wonderful Julie Bogart story—you can read about it in her book The Brave Learner! 🙂

I don’t know where the summer’s gone. We’ve hardly done anything beyond the one camping trip to Gettysburg. I guess you could call it a relaxed summer, but some of it has been stolen by a nasty tick and Lyme disease. We haven’t even made it to the beach once. I can’t believe September’s almost upon us. I also can’t believe WB is 15. Time flies too dang fast.
