My lovelies...how I've missed you! It's been months since I've written ... I really didn't want to be away so long. "What I did on my Summer vacation" ? - house / garden / pet sit for my brother. And house / pet sit for my parents. Back and forth... 2 different states. I helped out my sister a bit with her daycare kids when I was "around". "Something" had to be put on hold....my blog. And maybe a little bit of my sanity. *shrugs my shoulders*
2 houses, a big garden, countless plants ( I lost count actually.) 3 dogs, 2 cats, 1 bird and fishies.
The chaos... the woodchuck attack (May you rest in peace. I tried to save you.), the maggot incident, the house alarm going off at 2am, the phone issues, computer issues, the heat wave, the angel who sent over an airconditioner, the time I got to spend with my nieces, the wine buying excursions, the MUCH needed day in NYC for my birthday with my brother and his girlfriend and a brand spankin' new camera lens.
It's the one-ish year anniversary of my blog debut!
You know what I was doing a year ago? House sitting. yep. Pet sitting, uhhuh.
That's me. Awesome. :)

My summer flew by way too fast! I did get my usual Vegas fix in though...woooot! Can't beat that for a bday gift! I am loving the Door 2 pic...it would fit in perfectly with my decor! *crosses fingers to win*

My top 3 picks - Simplicity, Bathing in Sunlight's Stillness, Door 2. I also like the door with the red peeling paint, but it doesn't have a title (or I just missed it).
ReplyDeleteNice work.

summer? what summer? our weather was awfully wet, and our tomatoes rotted. none of the figs ripened either. we only traveled in country. nothing of significance happened this summer. last summer was chuck full of fun and adventure. but this summer? huummph!

My summer went by fast, went by too fast, and brought great joy (my baby turned 1)!
ReplyDeleteI love your untold stories series (my top three picks would be the doors). Very cool. I follow your blog.
My Summer was spent working :( but when I had free time I spent it outside on my new patio!

ReplyDeleteMy summer was mostly filled by my new job, working as a medical assistant. Crazy learning curve, but I love it!

I love all your work, but especially Simplicity, Door 2, and Lavender 2.
ReplyDeleteI had a baby this summer! That was exciting. :)

My summer was spent visiting the relatives in Arkansas... too many bugs there. Drank a lot of tea. Nice, though, to catch up.
ReplyDeleteGot a new puppy! He's so adorable and sweet, we named him Radar because he has enormous ears that are larger than him (he is a little chihuahua).
I started my Etsy page this summer (AbsolutelyKismet)! I also entered the brave world of Saturday Markets (local and small, that's what I like!), went to visit my family (niece and nephew grow so fast when you see them once a year!), and yeah. Hung with my dog and hubs. (Sherlockpup, my dog is named Radar, too!)
ReplyDeleteMy summer was a whirlwind! San Diego, Minneapolis twice, Reno, and two trips to Portland - whew! (doniree at gmail dot com)
ReplyDeleteMy summer was alright, I spent most of the times at home, and went to a beach every sunday :)

My summer...exciting? Not so much.
ReplyDeleteStayed home, hid from the heat.
I did start gardening, again, so that was nice.
Fresh basil, dill. Morning glories along the fence.

this summer was very hard time for me. some company started to rebuilt our block of flats at the beginning of july and they still work on it... so it was (is) unbelievable noisy and annoying time - i dont want to experience something like that anymore! but I came from my vacation in egypt 3 days ago - and THIS was real summer and relaxing time for me! I hope i will be able to face these conditions over here now better.:-)
