SPRING BREAK

TWO OF MY FAVORITE WORDS

SPRING…BREAK!

I cannot remember a more welcome Spring Break than this one…though I suppose we are always pretty beat up by this time every year. This winter in particular was rough…so much loss topped off by Charlie’s accident…well, all I can say is I hear the beach calling.

SPRING BREAK 2013 ---I CANNOT WAIT TO GET BACK

We do not usually have great weather this time of year…but that is not why we go and not what we need as much as the peace, the freedom from our unrelenting schedules and deadlines and projects. All of us together for each meal for a whole week in itself is a treat! NO soccer Games or MathTests and Work…we leave them at home.

CHARLIE IS GOING AND THE SUN AND SAND WILL DO HIM GOOD
BEACH 2013 – CHARLIE IS GOING  OF COURSE…AND THE SUN AND SAND WILL DO HIM GOOD

We take our messy selves and move into a big beach house for a week and pretend this is our life. Charlie of course is coming with us…the Vet said the sand is actually good therapy as it is hard to walk in, help build back the muscles that have gotten so weak.

I LOVE THIS PHOTO AND WANTT O PAINT IT ONE DAY

Who knows what I will be inspired to write about at the beach, but I will write…EVERYDAY…I took a bunch of photos yesterday of the living room and will share those in the Monday Makeover.
