A Day at the Beach

By

First of all, thank you so much to everyone who voted in the Amazing Lace Poetry Challenge. You guys are awesome and many of you had already voted for me before I even asked. Love you all! And guess what?!? I won!! Not only do I get 3 entries in the grand prize drawing but I also won this great little bag from Robynn! Thanks again to everyone who voted.

My weekend was busy with a family party (details later) and errands and shopping. But Sunday was all about this:

I parked my ass in that chair for about 4 hours. I did get up to eat a sandwich and swim a bit.

I also got up and took a sky photo for Sandy.

And a flower photo for Cara.

But mostly I just sat in that chair with my knitting. Sometimes life is really good.

  1. YEAH! Congrats! Nice bag! Best wishes for the grand prize!! It certianly was a great day for the beach!! What’s the knitting?

  2. Congratulations Carole! Glad you were able to stay cool and relax. Is that another little top for Ambryn using the new modifications of eyelet and ribbon?

  5. What an amazing Sunday! I’d have given anything to have been there too!

    Congrats again on the poetry contest!

  6. Life IS good! Really really good! Congratulations on winning the poetry challenge- do you think any of that poetry and knitting talent might rub off? I could use some!

  9. Congratulations on your win! Oh what a great way to spend the weekend especially with this heat. I stayed indoors but it was nice and cool in the outlet mall…lol.

  15. What a great way to spend a summer afternoon… I love the lilypad. Congrats on winning a cute little bag, more entries and lots of fame.

  18. You just proved how many friends you have;-) That little bag is darling!!
    Parked my ass in the basement out of the heat. Damn it’s hot! Wish I’d been sittin’ beside you with a big lemon tini.

  20. Congratulations. I’d be happy to take that bag off your hands if it doesn’t work for you. I’m jealous of the chair and the beach – sounds like the perfect way to spend a Sunday.

  32. Hi Carole, A day at Squanto!! I’m jealous!! Oh well, I guess I couldn’t complain, went to my Mom’s and sat by (and in) the pool…. Deb

  35. A great day, indeed! Thanks for a peek at your sky. Makes me feel as if I were there!

    I thought the flower was a rubber duckie at first. Perhaps it’s nearing time for some reading glasses.
    Shhhhhh
