Uhhh... Mom and Dad...

 

I know you love the Islands... but seriously, it's going on a 
month a half and now ANOTHER tsunami warning?  Hopefully it 
fizzles out before it gets there like last year... it'll be interesting 
to see where you get evacuated to this time (I know your retreat to the 
mall was heaps of fun... at least it was warm, dry and there was 
loads of ice-cream... sounds like good times to me ;-D).

Anyway, we love and miss you... <3 <3  


Post from Dad around 2:00 pm our time on facebook :
Chip Thank you for your concern, but after we were evacuated last night (morning) @ 12:30-a, I had thrown blankets, pillows, beach towels, etc., in the back of the SUV. After finding a quiet spot, I made your mother a bed fit for Queen Victoria, said a prayer for our family, then I put her to sleep. She was so out of it, the car was filled with: ZZZZZZZZZZ's & then more: ZZZZZZZZ's. Now, we are back in our condo, unpacked again, and prepared for another sunny day. LOVE YOU LIZ, Pops..!! 4 hours ago ·  

Elizabeth Love you both and in honor of this most sunniest of days (for you, at least... what's happened in Japan is so very sad): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pD5MxYVwkXM 10 minutes ago ·

New normal

Virus's, masks, hand sanitizer, staying home, conspiracy theories, hoarding, facetiming, toilet paper shortage, the worst of incompetency from the very highest level, gaslighting, so much blind and deafness (though, not literally), smokescreens, bold-face lies accepted without explanation.... the list goes on and on. First and foremost though, this is nothing to be made light of. The meme's were a good laugh in the beginning, but they're stale and old now.   People are suffering, people are sick, people are dying.  Medical workers all over the world are putting their lives at great risk everyday, working to save and protect so many.   Grocery and essential store workers, truck drivers and delivery people are making sure store shelves are stocked so we have what we need. It's hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel.  Until there's a vaccine there isn't much "finality" in sight. People.  Oh, the people.  In so many ways huma...

Turning the full-of-stuff-bins in my garage into an etsy store

It's time. I've been chattting this up for years.... YEARS. Been cleaning out my garage. Getting rid of soo soo much. Have sold a ton of stuff and donated lots. But there's still so much fabric, paint, wood, floral supplies, paper, jewelry making stuff... you name it, it's out there. I even have friends that will call up sometimes and ask if they can "come shop in my garage".  I dare not even put a round-about dollar tag on it all. The only way I can begin to justify it is by creating. Finally putting it all to some kind of use. Sooo, there it is. And here I go. If I think something might be fun for someone else to try I'll blog about it with instructions and photos and such. It feels weird saying that because like most people, there's WAY more I can be taught than I could ever teach others. Anyway. See ya out there!

Taking a little different direction...

Been thinking mucho the last several days about where I want my life to be. Is it crazy that I'm 47 years old and don't know? When I was 23 I knew more about what I wanted for my life (overall) than I do now. There are a few things I'm pretty sure about, but I also know I'm never going to get there if I'm always thinking so far ahead.  No more tomorrow, next week, next month, next year.  Uh uh. I really feel like everything is going to take care of itself if I live in the moment right now, and ONLY for that moment.  I'm also going to let myself be surprised... not always have everything so carefully calculated. And since I want the unknown, I'm not doing the 30-day photo challenge... So here's where I'm going... and I do know it's a good thing... though honestly, I really don't know where it's going to take me... but I feel like it will be, what it is to be... "Let it be, let it be, let it be-ee, let it be."
