It's August already?

I didn't realize how long it had been since I posted, so I need to get back with the program. I haven't done any sewing all summer and I even stopped into a quilt shop a couple of days ago, and walked out empty handed. How pathetic is that? I fear I shall be banned from the sisterhood of quilters. I had planned to do Kelly's Quilt-a-long, but I was just too stressed and overwhelmed at the time. I have been crocheting and cross-stitching, however, which I recently took up again after an absence of several years. I have two Christmas gifts in progress, and one is nearing completion.

I've also started exercising, which is long overdue. I'm walking, riding my exercise bike, and of course kayaking!

I couldn't believe how close these geese allowed us to get!


Yesterday was a perfect day to be out on the water. Not too hot (Finally!!) and a slight breeze. We went to a nice lake in Pennsylvania and spent a very nice afternoon on the water.

I plan to make a few cards today, download pictures from my cameras, and then I promise that I will do some sewing. Someone hold me accountable please!!
