I am in the process of catching my breath. Two grandchildren return home tomorrow and we expect another on Monday. We have all been shell-seeking for the past few days - one of my happiest endeavors, and the grandchildren have loved every minute of it. Fortunately, there is a beach nearby with an abundance of shells to choose from.

While I catch my breath, I am beginning to think about our return to the north in the not too distant future. I have begun to plug things into my
Google Calendar for March (my color is pink and Bruce's is blue - go figure!). Book Club is scheduled, Birthday Girl's outing is scheduled, knitting gatherings - and - a dentist appointment. I have not had any pink - (save, for my parent's visit) - in January or February - quite amazing as I glance back through the previous year.
One of my goals upon our return is to open my Etsy shop - actually, it has been a goal for a bit, but it kept getting put off as the holidays approached - and then we left. So - I have been visiting Esty in my spare time (very spare of late) in order to reacquaint myself with its structure and policies.
Since I love anything and everything to do with the sea, I chose that as the key word for my Etsy search. Just a peruse actually - not looking for anything in particular - just "aquatic inspiration", and I did not fall short! Below is just a sampling of the wonderful things that I came across - enjoy!
Look at all those shells - it's a good thing you don't have to mail them home. I used to collect sand dollars with my grandfather, and when I turned twelve my grandparents gave me a pewter sand dollar pendant. I cherish it to this day.
