And so it's over......

Almost everyone left to go back to their homes yesterday except Jess. 
Today Jake & his dad made it here around noon to pick her up so she can go back to Colorado with them for a few days.
She is now gone..... my nap has been taken.... and it's way too quiet now with just the two of us. 

 I miss these hugs.


 I'm now going to count down the rest of the year by organizing my thoughts and the house and get back to my sewing room again.  I haven't done much of any quilting this month.  
AND..... I have a LOT of books to start reading.  For Christmas I was given two more to add to my pile of 'books to be read'. 
Now that I think of it...... I think I'll go finish "Going Rogue" by Sarah Palin.  so I can start on my next book.
