Hello Everyone!

I realize I have left you on the edge of your computer chairs in anticipation. My hair.....well, could be worse! It came out the color of a carrot, and so we had to buy another box and the only color that would cover it was a pretty dark brown. It passes for normal, which is good enough for me right now:)

As for the weekend, on Saturday evening my husband and I drove to the water with Roxie grinning away in the backseat. Here are a few photos:





Today I met up with one of my best friends from highschool, and her mom made us waffles. It was a treat! Then I went to about 15 outlet stores and came home empty handed. Not necessarily a bad thing. I was in dire need of the help of my genius shopper friend, who was away on a fabulous camping trip, but I got to see her and her family this evening, which was great!

I just hung up the phone with my friend and coworker Beth, and we decided to go kayaking after work tomorrow. We are lucky to work on a college campus and too rarely take advantage of all the wonderful and free activities it has to offer!

So that is my "weekend update". I hope you all enjoyed yourselves this weekend. I have a very special trip coming up next weekend. Can you guess where we are going???

Sounds like a GREAT weekend Sheila! The sea, loved ones, shopping that didn't cost much, waffles... who could ask for more?

And kayaking sounds like a lovely way to round off a day. It's a very, very long time since I've done that and then it was only a couple of times but I have vivid memories of it and those late afternoon/evening sessions were my favourite - warm light, calm waters, close to nature... magical. Enjoy!

Are you going camping next weekend? Or is it farther afield?

Europe? South America? Asia? Canada? Africa? Can you gather that I'm just guessing wildly and randomly? ;) Oh so many exciting places it could be, and I'm all excited now on your behalf! Can't wait to hear... :)
