Hello My Lovely's!
I know I've been remiss in writing lately... In my defense, I've been so terribly busy and tired, with little time for anything. Since CC's been working out of town the Jetty job has been a big undertaking for me and although I've had help, I've still had to do much more than normal. I work, sleep, eat and start the cycle all over again. Not much time for anything else, other a quick "Like" on FB! Doesn't seem to be a lot of relief in the future, CC's been offered another out of town contract that starts August 16th for two weeks, the difference is he won't be able to come home on weekends this time, it will be a straight run. :-( The money is really good and with us planning a trip home next year we really can use it. I'm hoping that after a while I'll find my groove and feel more alive, but right now I'm just really worn out and exhausted, the work is so physically demanding. I've had a young guy helping me, but he's not very conscientious so, I have to do a good part of his work as well, but I'm thankful for the help. Some young people have no idea how to really work, I'm so thankful our kid's all know how to give their best at whatever they do, it says a lot for the wonderful people they are! :-) Enough whining from me.
Thank you both so much for your insightful comments on my perfume search, I have to say, they both made me cry! You're such true Friends and I appreciate each of you more than words can say! I haven't made my mind up yet, but still experimenting with new fragrance. This past week, it was Chanel - No.5, Chanel - Chance & Thierry Mugler - Angel. I like them, but they're not me. Will keep you posted on the progress. My vanity top looks like the display counter at Macy's!
Candy, I've been thinking about you and I know how hard it is seeing your Baby grow up so quickly. I think as Mother's we want to see our children grow, prosper, and be independent... Yet, by the same token, there's this inane ability to always see them as Babies, no matter how old they are! We nurture those little lives inside our bodies for 9 months and bond with them in a way that ties us to that little person for all eternity. So, no matter how old they get, our Babies are just who they will forever be! I've been seeing the always amazing pictures of your creations on FB and let me just say, Wow! You're so talented! I know it must be hard work, I can only imagine the time that goes into such a work of art. You take care of yourself and have some well deserved rest, even if it's just an hour in a hot bath with a good book and a glass of wine!
Gypsy, I know you're having doubts about taking on such a big responsibility, 6 children is a huge undertaking, but I think if anybody can do it, you can! I think once you get to Maine and have some time with TC & the Kid's you'll know for sure and make the right choice... Either it will come naturally, or you'll know it's not for you. Either way, your bliss is out there, whether it's in Maine, or somewhere else in this big wide world and I know it will find you. Can't wait to hear about your projects an all of the news with your writing... Let us know soon what's happening!
Well, My Darlings, I'm going to enjoy my Man while he's here. Tomorrow I'll travel to the job he's been working on, just for the day, he has to do a couple of hours of finishing work and wants me to see the town. Even though we'll only have a week together before he's gone again, we'll make the most of it! :-)
I would love nothing more than to be home sharing a pot of tea and goodies with My Girls! I owe you both a long catch session via phone and will try to call next week. In the mean time, know that you're both always close in my thoughts and I love you dearly!
Always,
TOWFL
