A Patriotic Home Coming



We made it home in time for our neighborhood Fourth of July parade. What a perfect home coming. Family, community, barbecue and a little boutique sewing. Girl missed her sewing machine! You'll see just how much in the coming days. I've been a sewing maniac since I've been back.

All personal sewing. I am still on sabbatical. It was so necessary. I've taken breaks before - like 10 hour breaks. Maybe two day breaks. Once I think I may have taken off for a whole week - and I always ended up right back where I started... oversold, overworked and an under-nourished soul.

I love the saying "everything happens for a reason". I don't believe the affirmative that there is a reason first and then something happens second to support that reason. I do believe that any negative energy behind everything that happens in life can influence positive energy towards something else... and thus, everything that happens can be associated with what another might see as an afore-known reason. Whew... windy much? Anyway...

This was a forced sabbatical. But it has been an amazing, much needed, nourishing time for me and hopefully for my family too.
