I never can understand why they bother to bring themselves back here. I'd just stay in Florida! It's clear to me that the wife, anyway, definitely leaves her heart in Tampa. And after reading this post of yours, I'm all the more convinced that they're crazy! <BR/><BR/>I am so glad that you are blessed with a daughter who is such a joy to be with, and I can just imagine how you feel when she leaves. But you have your trek to Ohio to focus on! What a busy and adventurous life you have!<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>BettyB.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08724883690591213622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7069644.post-17194242442593015892007-04-15T21:32:00.000-04:002007-04-15T21:32:00.000-04:00Kacey,What a wonderful place Fort Meyers seems to ...Kacey,<BR/><BR/>What a wonderful place Fort Meyers seems to be! So beautiful, peaceful looking. Loved the sandals! How cute!! We have a lovely Nor'easter up here right now. Windy, rainy, dank and dreary. Would love to be sitting in that butt-hugging sand right now!!Dust-bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610355970669069345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7069644.post-46744334065620757612007-04-14T16:35:00.000-04:002007-04-14T16:35:00.000-04:00Kacey,This post brought a tear to my eye! You desc...Kacey,<BR/>This post brought a tear to my eye! You described the beach, the white sand, the snowbirds, the footprints, and for a tiny moment I was there. I could feel the sand between my toes. Sounds like heaven!<BR/>I've never had the opportunity to take a vacation, the one time I had planned to visit my sister in New Brunswick, I ended up going to a funeral instead. Her daughter, 5 years old had passed away.<BR/>So, I'm travelling with you in cyber space!<BR/>Your daughter sounds like the dream houseguest.Did you convince her to join the 'Diva's?<BR/>Funny, but I told my granddaughter when she was only 5,,that she would never be lonely as long as there were books around. I had taught her to read at 4 yrs old. I told her that when you're having a bad day, when friends will hurt you, you can always turn to a book and you'll never be bored or lonely...and now at 9, she has the same habit as me, we can't go to bed without reading a bit. She is so much like me, she carries her books everywhere, to her dad's on a weekend, for a long car ride, a wait at the dr's.<BR/><BR/>I will teach myself cross-stitch this summer when I sit on the deck with my legs up and dream off far-away places! When I was at the Children's Hospital I saw a lovely cross-stitch that was donated, a picture out of a Norman Rockwell book. A work of art! <BR/>Oh surely the sand is always whiter, the sky is always bluer, the water warmer in your patch of the world. I just know it is.<BR/>Maybe one day, I'll get to go!<BR/>Beautiful pic's.<BR/>I know you had a lovely time with your daughter,, and yes, I believe that teachers are wonderful, over-worked, underpaid and under-appreciated! Bet she could tell you some horror stories about the parents. It's sad when they leave, isn't it?<BR/>Now back to work Kacey, no rest for the wicked!Pack up and move again, I hope you get a break after this.<BR/>CheersSpicyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02092460015575995500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7069644.post-50202031689461355782007-04-13T21:22:00.000-04:002007-04-13T21:22:00.000-04:00Ahhh, Kacey, what a trulylovely spring break with ...Ahhh, Kacey, what a trulylovely spring break with your daughter that was ! <BR/><BR/>She indeed sounds like a delightful houseguest ! In fact, so much like me with her passion for reading and sleeping and needlepoint and relaxing that should you ever need a stand-in, I'll be happy to do so !<BR/><BR/>That beach has the prettiest sand I've ever seen ! wow.<BR/><BR/>Your grandson will LOVE the cookies ! I bet they won't last a week when his buddies find out about them and want to have one or two or ten !!!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the incredibly sweet comment on my blog, Kacey... <BR/><BR/>Cyber-hugs and blessings to you --Constancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02702046097986873803noreply@blogger.com
