~ Sepia Sunday ~

:::waving::: Hi folks! Today was wonderful! It started out pretty warm and sunny. I got my parents and we headed to the beach cottage. Ohhh Maan it was beautiful! A view that would make anyone feel better. The yard was rather large and between the two houses was a gazebo looking out over the water. You went down about 15 steps to the beach.

The haze had set in by the time we got there and it sprinkled a bit off and on, but not enough rain to spoil the fun. It stayed very warm, but the breeze off the water was delightful. Hmmm... except for the occasional smell of fish and seaweed. We ate like pigs. Talked, played games, and I took pictures. Surprised? LOL Some of the kids went out on the boat, but no one really went in the water. I got my feet wet when I went down with 'bug.' It was like bath water!

I took a ton of pictures, but just didn't have the energy to go through them all. I made these sepia tone to go with the scrap items. When I have more time you will most definitely see them in color! The grounds were gorgeous and I did get some nice shots of the gardens and 'bug' playing. One she is sitting at the base of a tree. Wait until you see the size of the trunk! No sunset, the clouds were pretty heavy and nothing was peeking out. Yet I did get this one earlier with the rays shining down and the water in the distance glowing.

I am going back out on Tuesday. Steve will join me as he has off. Well, he works 11 pm-7 am Monday and Tuesday night. He thought a few hours sleep when he gets home and then a trip to the cottage for the day and dinner. His girlfriend will meet us there after work and hangout a bit before getting him home for a nap before his shift. They are calling for rain, but hopefully it will be a good day.

I felt great today. I want to send my thanks to each of you. I know bread is a carb, and the end result is sugar, but I thought it would soak up the natural juice/sugar that was the only thing I put in my system for a couple days. I could have made a big beefy burger but I didn't feel up to it the time. Bread and milk did do the trick. It took a bit, but by the end of the day I was fine. And, yes I did eat a full meal for dinner. Rest assured if this becomes a habit or even happens once more I will get into the Dr. It has not happened before and I don't want to over react. At this point I don't want to panic anymore then I did yesterday. I was home alone and I think that added to the entire episode. Trust me, I'm fine now. Thank you!

I've had a few mails and comments regarding my tags being offered for only a short time or that they are not open ended. I'm sorry about that. I am doing more now then in the past and having several open just gets out of hand. Logging on to find someone has visited and requests 2, 3, 4, and 5 tags going as far back as time would allow is not a whole lot of fun for me. This is a hobby :) So I do apologize for those of you missing out because of time restraints. I do name the entry tag request so you will see it in the alert. I wish I had the time to do these non-stop, but unfortunately I don't. I hope you'll understand.

I hope everyone had a great weekend! Full of love and laughter....

Hugs
