Camp Weekend

This has always been my favorite weekend

(long weekend)

of the year.

 

For all my adult life, this was an "alone" weekend.

 

A Buck Widow Weekend.

 

I loved it! 

 

And then it happened...

JWS announces he no longer wishes to hunt.

 

Now I am sure that there are women everywhere that would love to

hear

that

proclamation,

however,

it was not a happy day for me!!!

 

I liked my time alone.

I liked my house to myself.

I liked the tv remotes,

sleeping when I wanted to

getting up when I wanted to

eating leftovers

and

whatever I wanted.

 

Not that JWS is demanding

or

noisy

or messy

or

hard to be around.

 

(He is a remote hog though)

 

Last year,

we compromised,

New Orleans.

 

We spent the weekend there.

It was fun.

 

This year

nothing...

but

 

It hasn't been bad so far.

I got some canvases done

And,

I turned this picture

 

into this chalkboard.

And really, I didn't know this person

and

his loved ones sold him at a sale

so

I had no problem painting over him.

 

He's still under there anyway

if someone wants him back!

I made that infinity scarf,

that was quick!

Another frame that I found when the boys and I cleaned

the storage space under the steps.

 

Tyler and Logan

had a sleepover Thursday night.

And...

this is what my sewing room had become.

And this is what it is back to.

These stars were hiding in that mess.

Starched and glittered and ready for Christmas.

And all those t-shirt misprints laying on the bed are now

neatly cut up and made into t-shirt yarn.

 

JWS?

He is off to Pittsburgh for the day with a buddy

and

Gracelyn is coming to spend the night tonight. 

 

 

I have a new project in the works...

more on that in another post!  

 

It's BIG!
