A visit with my mom

My husband loves his banana tree and asked me to post a picture of it so he could see his beloved.
Our house is on stilts and this is a picture of it looking down from the top of the stairs.

Tea, Anyone?

This will be me next week, hopefully!
My friend, Anne, and her two daughters went to Tastefully British, a restaurant in Sarasota, yesterday for tea.
Look at the cute striped cozy,
and pretty tea cups,
and the flowers,
and the lattice,
and, of course, the napkin!

I'm heading to Florida today to visit my mom and will take one day to see Anne and her kids and we'll go to lunch.  I'm going to have a Cornish Pasty.  Haven't had one since I was in England five years ago.
Can't wait!

Feelin' Lazy

I'm getting further and further behind.  This is from two weeks ago!

I'm sitting here on the couch with the computer on my lap taking in the scene.  The sun is dappling through the leaves tossing golden coins everywhere and my sheets are sashaying in the breeze.

I have chores to do and places to go...but I don't want to!

Do you ever have days when you just want to veg?

Tuna #3

Gary (on the left in his lucky truquoise fishing shirt) got a 311 lb. tuna yesterday...

and

another one today!  This one weighed 308 lbs. 

I didn't get any pictures of yesterday's because it was already in the tuna buyer's truck by the time I got to the dock.

We should find out in a week or so how well they do at the tuna auction.

Goofs

I almost didn't finish this page because of the mistakes. 

First, I wrote the wrong day.  You can see that I had to paint over the "Mon" that I wrote originally and replace it with Wed.  Duh!

Then I got the day when we went to Ken's mixed up.  I glanced back at the previous page and saw that I'd already journaled about it.  Instead of painting over it, I just put arrows.  Another Duh!

For Friday July 2nd, I couldn't remember anything about it!  It feels like I missed a day in my life.  Where was I?  Duh!

Any Duh! moments in your life lately?
