Where Have I Been?

I've been all over the place....


To Birmingham for a quick trip to see these fun kids...

She certainly kept Grandy busy!

To Pennsylvania for an event at Andy's alma mater...we were there the beginning of May and the morning we were heading to the airport to come home there was frost on the windshield...a lot of frost...and for this Florida girl that only wears Flip Flops from mid April on, my toes were freezing.

Cleaning and organizing and getting rid of stuff...seems like I do this all the time...

Working in the yard...



Finishing up some very "aged" projects...

and some very recent projects...this picture isn't the best,

just as I got it all straight and headed back upstairs to take the picture, Howie decided he needed to walk across it and inspect...so go the wrinkles...

Going to Pilates, working out with a trainer twice a week and riding the bicycle 4 mornings a week...I've been trying out a neighbor's bike and I really like it, so we'll be going to buy my very own...I can't wait...I LOVE it!  I truly am in better shape now at 62 than I have been in most of my adult life...it feels great!

And........I've been on Instagram...yes I have...Oh it is so quick and easy...But the heat is upon us so I'll be back right HERE!

You certainly have been busy! I can't believe how big the kids are now...time flies!

I found you on IG and am also following you there.

Have a great weekend.

My goodness, I don't think I will even try to keep up with you.
Good job on your project progress!
And congrats on getting in good shape!!

The aged project is more in the color range I am used to seeing you work in.

The last time I rode a bicycle was in my 20's. I could not do it now.

Goodness, you have been on the go! And such fun memories! I'm impressed that you've found time to stitch and finish projects. And three cheers for your fitness success! Staying fit was so much easier back in the day. :) What bike are you using. We have an old Schwinn Airdyne and the seat is just so uncomfortable.We're thinking of getting an elliptical for winter workouts.

Yes, you've been busy... but it sounds like the best kind of busy... grandchildren, gardening, quilting, and bike riding! Love the aged project AND the new one!

I recently joined the IG craze... we are following each other. So fun!

Wow! You have been having fun! I love riding bikes too! I didn't for years, I wasn't sure I could anymore, and I'm so happy I started again! Good for you for being so fit! Do what you love to do for exercise :-)

How did I miss this??? Obviously I wasn't paying attention. duh!

I still can't believe how big the kids have gotten. The time has just flown by.

I see you're keeping your sewing machine busy, busy, busy! Lots of beautiful projects.

Wow -- your cute little grandkids are growing like weeds -- I remember when the oldest was born! Have fun on your bike -- I love bike riding!

I can't ride a bike any more - I have absolutely no sense of balance. :( I've been on Instagram too but it doesn't seem to hold my interest. I need to try again. blessings, marlene
