- I didn't make the bed the entire time he was gone! Instead I made a cozy nest filled with books and notebooks (to jot down any juicy creative ideas I might get before I forgot them in 30 seconds or less)...it was decadent and scandalous!
- I made all kinds of weird and wonderful tofu and veggie delights. No meat and potatoes and no one to complain about it.
- I spread my beads and jewelry STUFF all over the dining room table and left the mess for days...sigh...creative messiness at it's best!!
- And....nope, that's it.
FINALLY... after 12 long days he was on his way home. I cleaned and fussed to make our home lovely again. I went to JoAnn's and bought an enormous spool of yellow ribbon. I tried to make a bow...I went to the flower shop and PAID the nice lady to make a PRETTY bow. I came home and tried to tie the bow around the old birch tree (note to self...this won't work without REALLY long arms or another person !) I stapled bow to old birch tree (sorry Mr. Tree) and waited with butterflies in my tummy for my husband of almost thirty years to come home.
Welcome Home Mr. Bob!! I missed you!
hugs, j

j I had to come visit after such a sweet comment was left on my doorstep.
every post ... amazing! I love the fact that I trump Hawaii. I hope all your fellow Alaska neighbors enjoy the blog also.
I do hope some day that you can come visit their is much to see in that old Barn. I will never forget the day a van load of fellow blog followers from upper Michigan stopped in. I was still at the store but we were closed. After seeing their cute faces peering through the windows and hearing about the drive down I of course let them in. 3 and 1/2 hours later they left with a van full of goodies and we have been friends ever since. They come down and see me 4 times a year now and I love there visits.
I'm getting the store ready for Christmas....I can't wait to show you those photos
peace
Lori
