I have sewn - curtains, pillows, little quilts - even opened an Etsy shop named ragpieces.bypope. So far, it is just for fun - not profit. I have exercised. Most days, I walk at least two miles, usually more. I have read books, mostly chick lit. I have looked at Pinterest and all of the DIY boards in the world. I have tried many different projects - mostly small things. I have worked in our yard. I have tried new recipes. I have snapped pictures with my camera - not "artistic photographs" - just snapshots. I have dreamed about the small beach house we are planning to build. I have talked with my parents. I have spent time with my adult children and husband. Our "baby" turned twenty-three. Our older daughter turned twenty-eight. I have gone to the beach several times. I considered buying a SUP - stand up paddle board. That is, until I realized I could not carry a board that is ten feet long and weighs fifty pounds up three flights of stairs. My husband and I got a new puppy. What were we thinking???
What will the near future hold? Our first grandchild is due any day now. This will be a joyous event! My husband and I will celebrate our thirtieth anniversary. I will turn fifty-two. Hopefully, we will break ground on the small house at the beach we are planning.
What have I not done? Missed going to work. Missed drama. Missed taking meds for high blood pressure.
