Back from a much needed and delayed vacation. Stayed with my cousin Rita –my best friend and fellow mischief maker since we were toddlers on Grandma’s porch. Colorado was the playground and we took advantage of every nearby spot — whether touristy or soul nourishing vistas. Bytes spent time with Rita’s daughter and family nearby and got to do and see other new things as well as the mountain ventures. It was a joy!
This linky party has been my link to joy and connection for all the changes in my life since 2o011. Your comments have been nourishment to the soul. We updated and sold a home, moved across country and updated a new home, established a new life — and then established another new life as caregivers and caree. Each weekend I would take an hour – or two – ore more! — to go through the links and choose the features. It is not an easy job — because you all are so freakin’ awesome! It is hard enough to limit choices to 11 features, but in the haste to vacation I limited the features last week to 8. I’m going to keep it that way for awhile — at least till Christmas time when it gets even harder to select just a few. Thanks for sharing your awesomeness each week!
