FullaBella's Journal, 28 August 2014

I'm dazed and confused ~ as usual. This always happens on those days that end with the letter 'y'.

I was 5 minutes late opening my shop... had people LINED UP on the sidewalk! One guy even called and rudely asked 'what time are you planning on showing up today?' I live behind my shop and nearly answered 'NOT!' because, well, we old ladies get a little cranky about being rushed. After that mad rush though ...nothing. One decent sale. But that's okay ... I'm PACKING.

We leave for the lake cabin tomorrow. Four Days. I grew up in the country so I don't generally consider it a vacation to be anywhere that involves woods, retreat, quiet, etc. I'm more 'dahlin ... gimme park avenue' in my later years.

But with Blondie's crew it's a necessity to have a place big enough to spread out. I'm looking forward to the experience of 'unplugging' from the phones, sidewalks and traffic. Oh yeah, need to pack sneakers. And... bug spray. And Rum.



If it's as nice as the photo's online look, it should be okay. Here are a couple:





So today is my Friday and Tuesday will be my Monday so I'll be in complete Dori mode for at least half of September.

All things food... not bad. Not perfect but not horrid.



Just kidding. They still fit.

My focus this holiday weekend will be to just eat mindfully.



Not overeat but not sweat every single bite. Water of course. And yep.. coffee.



I'll hopefully get a little walking in ... running from the axe murderers who hang out in the woods.. things like that.

I'm taking my kindle ... there's supposed to be internet but just incase I go MIA don't hold services or pay ransom before Wednesday. However... if I stop in and blow it all on the crap tables.. I may be phoning collect for a little help. Y'all be sure and post your phone numbers below okay?

Otherwise, you all have a safe, happy and healthy holiday weekend :-)

Bella

PS - this has nothing to do with anything but it's amazing how many of these with which I agreed...

So, ummm... that's camping? I might like that! I TOTALLY identify with numbers 2, 17, ****24*****!!!! And the others are very humorous, too....don't want to identify with them all or you might realize you know me IRL.

Bella have the most wonderful retreat. I hope you have some peace and serenity at least for a few moments. I loved the long list...I think I identified with all 32. I'll miss you. Look for you next week : )

Have fun!! I wish I knew how to add the pics the way you do... If I click on image it does not direct me to browsing ...any tips?

Hi Optimistic57: To add pix: 1) Upload image to "Imgur" (free account) 2) go to Edit Image and change largest number to 480 (it'll make sense when you do it) 3) Save and then choose the BBC format to copy & paste in to your entry. (it'll look a little like gibberish b/w {{}}, but once you submit you should be able to go back in and view the pic - it's programming language). Pretty easy once you do it once.
