On the other, I miss my hubby...and Florida.
Hubby on the left...baby brother on the right. |
I'm a strong, independent woman but I gotta tell ya...after being with him for 35 years...with very little time apart...I'm Missing him!!!
A peek at the prayer flag I made to hang at the new house. |
The girls will keep me busy though.
OMGoodness it was good to see them!
another project completed while in FL - more later |
We've been practicing that for the past couple years...and I know it will keep us happy and healthy and strong.
YEP...it was cold enough in FL for the restaurant we ate at...to light a fire! |
Tampa Bay where it meets the Gulf of Mexico. |
But today...just before the kids all left for the weekend...she was her usual, happy, trusting self.
can you guess what this is a picture of? |
I have tons of work to do here before moving...so I may not be online a lot...or commenting as much as I like to on your posts...
The Skyway Bridge...as seen 1 1/2 miles from the house...closest boat ramp. |
but I'll be visiting every chance I get and looking forward to...at the very least...catching up with your lives and art.
The pictures in this post are, of course, from my last couple weeks in Florida.

Create Your Life,
annie!
'What gorgeous photos! I'm glad you found a home...hard to do! Glad you got to go back and visit your peeps! FUN! If you live in St. Pete, I have a few artsy friends in the area who also blog. If you want a group to craft with or show you around or tell you where to shop that kind of thing, drop me a line. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks So much Anita! What a very wonderful offer! I'd love to meet your artsy friends! Can you give me their blog addresses? I may already know them since we lived in the Tampa Bay area for a couple years before moving to Colombia.
DeleteGlad you are back with your babies! Sad that you're missing the Hubby. :):(
ReplyDeleteThanks Robin. I had some strange idea that it would be kinda cool to live alone for awhile...but it's not all that great in my opinion! But...I will enjoy my time with the girls. They're gone this weekend so that'll give me a chance to rest up before they have me running.
Deleteso exciting Annie, hubby is only a phone call away, enjoy your time with the girls, I'm so happy for you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laurie! Are you doing better?!? I hope, I hope!
DeleteNow you will be busy sorting out your belongings before your move :) ybf ann.
ReplyDeleteYou betcha. Yikes!
DeleteEnjoy!! Time flies when you are having fun!!
ReplyDeleteI am gonna have fun! Thanks Jay!
DeleteEnjoy your time in Columbia, annie!. Florida looks beautiful and I'm really glad you have found your home there. I am enjoying your Florida pictures - we are having yet another very dull day of rain and chill.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sheila! I can't believe how long it's been since Colombia has had rain. It's so dusty and dry here...even with the high humidity. But...rainy season should be here any time now...and I'm actually looking VerY forward to it! Florida is...simply...beautiful.
DeleteI know I would be missing my hubby too. Isn't it wonderful to be married to your best friend?!! I continue to be inspired by how you are able to seek out the beauty around you wherever you go and then share it with us.
ReplyDeleteThanks Starr. I don't think we would've made it for 35 years if we weren't best friends! I can't help but find beauty in FL. I must say though...outside of the children...I'm having a hard time seeing it here in Colombia since my return.
DeleteHey Annie :D Lovely pictures! You always show us so much beauty, thank you. I'm loving the gecko fencing btw!
ReplyDeleteAs busy as you seem to be, the next three weeks will fly by and you will be back with your love before you know it. I too am lucky enough to be married to my best friend. 24 years this year. Have fun with the wee ones and store up those memories whilst you're there :0) Mo xx
Thanks Mo! The fence was at one of my favorite beach restaurants...Rum Runners. The kids are away this weekend and I have done ABsolutely NOThing except eat, read, eat, watch tv and eat!
DeleteWishing you Godspeed in getting everything wrapped up. Looking forward to you getting settled back on the Gulf. I shared your "It's A Shore Thing" at one of my Google+ groups, Main Street Art. It's owned by a woman in UT.
ReplyDeleteTake care,
Sandi
Well thanks so much Sandi! I'll have to check out her blog. Google + has me stumped...but that's because I get exasperated every time I go there.
