Once again, it's about time for me to post!

I cannot believe this is my first post since New Year's day of 2010. I really do follow other blogs and had high hopes of continuing my own. Maybe?

Life as a retired librarian/grandmother is much busier than I had ever imagined. Not only is my one and only granddaughter now 4 years old and still the love of my life, but her mom is now expecting twins!! A boy and a girl! I've been knitting and sewing busily and should have lots to show for my work, soon. I'm also making curtains for their bedroom at my daughter's request. I'll try to get some pics to post soon.

I've been knitting and smocking quite a bit and now have my own Ladybug spinning wheel. I am still new, but really enjoy it.

Travel has been a big part of my life. My husband and I have cruised to the Caribbean twice, to New England and Canada, to Mexican Riviera (just before most cruise ships pulled out of that area), and to the Bahamas. After our first cruise to Alaska several years ago. We fly to San Francisco as often as we can to visit our son and to Las Vegas to visit two brothers of ours. We took a road trip to Montreal and Niagara Falls last fall and had a wonderful time.

I've been volunteering at the local intermediate school library and also helping with their bookfairs. It's tons of fun!

I've acquired a new Kindle for reading, especially when we are traveling and I love it! I now work out at a gym regularly and we are eating much, much better. We've gone 'brown' and really are enjoying good fresh food. We shared a weekly share with a local CSA this summer and had fresh vegs and fruit each week. It was wonderful. We froze quite a bit toward winter, too. We've shared a side of beef, too, with our daughter and it's tasty, to say the least.

Life is busy and good!
