That Was Fast
~~~~~
The computer has been fixed and in less than a day, wahoo! Not only that but my dear husband offered to take the kids for an overnight to my family’s camp so that I might have a day and night alone here.
So I am alone, in my OWN HOME right now.
So far, I have done some weeding, have picked and eaten a bowl of strawberries, watched American Splendor, read 8 chapters in “The Last Days of Dogtown” and have munched my way through a bowl of popcorn. I have not cleaned the house or done laundry or fixed food for anyone but myself. I have not wiped any butts but my own.
For the rest of the day I think I will felt and read and wander about aimlessly. Tonight will find me in the middle of the bed, sprawled in any direction that suits me.
Here are a few pictures from our weekend on the coast
Off to have dinner on a clean table with a tablecloth. Afterwards? I think it may be time for my annual viewing of “Room With A View”.
Come on over, I have extra hankies.

The foot in the water is one of my favorites things. Who fixes your computer? I want them to take care of mine! Enjoy your “night off.”
Love the pictures. Is there any chance of sharing these??? I live and love the ocean and those pictures capture her soul perfectly.

Such texture! I am craving the coast! One month and 2 days and we’ll be there!
I have never seen that movie (yet!)
Ooo, I’m envious of your time alone. I crave that…particulary a nap on the forest floor in the middle of the day.
That sounds divine! Enjoy!!!
How delectable!!!!!!!!
The third and fifth pics are my favorites.
Thanks for sharing.
I am so incredibly jealous of you. I have to get my tonsils cut out to be alone in my house.
refreshing! I miss living by the coast.
I love hankies and will be over immediately!
I instantly was mad at my hubsband for not offering the same ahahaha! Enjoy!
Enjoy! I’m enjoying your day just thinking about it! baby’s crying! end daydream.
:celebrate: No extra butt wiping would be a dream come true for me!!!!
Ohhh it has been yeeaaarrs since I have watched Room with a view!!! Enjoy!
How cool…a trip to the coast! I am so glad you got some alone time! It’s so lovely, isn’t it? I almost rented A Room With a View when my younger son was gone and my older one working. I should pick that movie up next time I have a chance. Glad you wandered aimlessly, munched popcorn and enjoyed your clean table!
So jealous of you going to see Dan Zanes! And of the kids free time you have. It sounds like you have been been enjoying it! If I had read this earlier I might have just stopped by, with a hankie.
Yay! Wonderful pictures. Enjoy your alone time.
lovely pictures and a lovely day!

Ah, peace and solitude – what a glorious thing!
Your pictures are gorgeous – as usual!
Enjoy the quiet!

Time alone… hankies… who could ask for more?
Your hubby is a keeper.
I hope you have enjoyed yourself and feel refreshed.
I am headed to the beach this weekend. Those photos are what I would take if I had nearly the talent that you have.
WOOOHOOOO!!!!
That sounds like pure heaven. *swoon*
I hope you enjoy(ed) your time! I love your photos…I was wondering as I was looking at them though, what lens do you use primarily? I think I remember you saying you have a Digital Rebel, so do we…but I was unsure about the lens!
Alone time! :celebrate: Wow, what a treat! I hope you had a wonderful time.
I just LOVE the picture of Jesse on the beach.
Oh a weekend on the coast in Maine sounds delightful. So does a weekend without the kids, knowing they are safely and happily with their father.
