my last day of work was june 30th,
and i have been going non-stop since.
i have missed my blogging family!
this week begins a slow down.
a sense of getting my routine at home.
i have to say,
not going to work is total bliss.
straight up total bliss.

my etsy shop has been closed since may,
i re-opened it sunday.
i have just 4 pieces in there, but it's a start.
i am working on several things,
to include doing some encaustic work.
i am just getting started on that,
it's total experimentation.
if anyone out there has any input,
let me know.
this is all new to me
and it will be trial
and
error.
i am sure there will be lots of that...
ya know, the error part...

so far, my days have been filled with making art,
spending time with family and friends,
gardening,
having our grandsons over,
making raspberry sauce...
i went to lunch with my BFF and her mom on july 1,
my first day of freedom retirement.
we had champagne spritzers
with the most delicious raspberry sauce
drizzled in the glass..
along with fresh berries
and thin slices of kiwi, orange and lemon...
i had to make some myself,
and have been using it in my iced tea,
over vanilla ice cream...it's so yummy.
and yes, i made a few spritzers at home as well...

other than that, i'm just coastin',
and loving every minute of it...
