We went to the Bahamas with my family. We took my son who is struggling with whether to finish school after 5 years of engineering, my daughter and her husband who are struggling with the hard realities of real marriage, my beautiful grandchildren who are sweet, innocent and just pure love. We were all hoping to dump all our problems in the ocean, soak in the sun and come back totally new. Well it rained most of the time and we spent a lot of time indoors. We did have a lot of Dr. Phil moments where we uncovered some very raw emotions and at the end of the week we just packed up our troubles and came home. There were some real breakthrough moments but sometimes that can be cleansing but painful. At the end of the week we packed our bags with our troubles and returned home.
Home again, and I feel happy to be home, sad about my families burdens, grateful that I have a family that loves each other. We have these beautiful babies that give us hope. So for now we are home again and waiting for sunny skies.
About Me
- StitchLuva and Yarn
- I am in my early 50’s. They say 50 is the new 30, ha! Sometimes 50 feels like 60. I live in northern NJ. Married for 27+ years to a real sweatheart. Have 2 adult children that I can’t complain about but usually do. I have a beautiful grand daughter that has brought new meaning to my life. Stopped working to watch her and she is now 4. I have recently been blessed with grand son. I do not consider myself retired because at some time I may decide to go back to work (outside the house). Staying home is very hard work and was a very big adjustment. I am starting to get used to it. I use my crafts as my escape. I crochet and know how to knit but have not knit anything in over a year. Lately I have started to play with paper and have done a few scrapbook pages and hope to make some cards soon. I used to sew when I was a teenager and would like to try it again. My biggest problem, like everyone else, is not enough time.
