I wrote this post once already, hit save, went to do something else, then went back to edit it and it was gone. I did everything right and I’m still having to rewrite it. *Grumbles*
I’m catching up on things that happened while I was super busy and couldn’t keep up with everything. One of the things I wanted to share was a trip Michael and I took with his parents to Atlantic Beach. It’s become a tradition for them to visit the beach in the off season – when the rates are cheap, the beaches are empty, and you can have the ocean all to yourself. I have to admit I probably like the beach better this way. I don’t mind the cold, particularly. In fact, when you are bundled up there isn’t really a chance of getting sunburned, which is what I’ve done every time I’ve went to a beach in the summer.
Unfortunately for me it was a working vacation – I had a number of designs due at the end of January and beginning of February and I couldn’t just not work on them. But I only did the essentials – so no email or answering the phone.
The unit where we stayed had a GIANT easychair, which I took possession of early in the weekend, and worked on most of my crochet/knitting there. It was an amazing chair.
The lovely lovely easy chair, where most of my knitting or crocheting took place. |

Michael, looking picturesque. |

And all along, I stitched away. |
