Report Card

That’s what I get for blogging about fleece and tights!Not that we’re going to complain about extra days of summer, no m’am.Of…

Smile!
I just had to pop in and share this, even though it’s not Tuesday anymore.

From One Island to Another
It’s been quiet around here, because I was away on vacation with no internet access. I had intended to write posts and have them publish automatically while I was gone, but with everything else that needed to get done before I left, it just didn’t happen. I hope you didn’t miss me too much! We…
