It is an absolutely beautiful day here in South Miami. The temperature is a cool 68 degrees with a nice breeze which makes it feel even cooler. Unfortunately, Boogie Boo and I are a bit under the weather. We were actually supposed to be camping with our Cub Scout Pack in Lakeland for the Wings 'n Things big event, but since the temps were supposed to be in the 40's up there and I was feeling too achy to pack up the truck with all our gear, I made the executive decision to stay home. Although I know it was the right decision, I can't help but feel bummed about missing out on all the fun. Well, there is always next month's campout at Oleta River State Park in North Miami. Hopefully it will warm back up for that one. Cook isn't into riding bike trails all that much so we will probably spend our free time at their beach. But for now, we will have to settle for relaxing on the sofa watching Rio and Despicable Me.
Can you believe November is here already??? I can't! It seems like yesterday was the beginning of summer vacation and I was telling Jeanne how I wanted to start on my handmade Christmas gifts. Mind you, I had the same idea for last Christmas and only ended up making 1 gift. Okay, so how many have I completed for this Christmas? One. Yep, you heard me right. One. But I'm not worried in the slightest. If I stay focused, I may be able to......ugh, who am I kidding? I have 24 23 gifts to make by Christmas Eve. I think what I need to do is revise my list. There is no way, I can make all of these gifts, especially when 1/2 are quilts. Ay mama! Yes, I'm going to have to revise THE LIST!
Okay, off to breakfast with Boog and the girls. Don't worry. I am taking gift #2 with me. Its a crochet scarf that I can work on while we are waiting to be seated. I hope you have a wonderful Saturday.
