Unfortunately just before the trip I bashed my (bare) foot against a basket filled with magazines. (My parents didn't name me Grace for a reason.) I went along my merry way and it started feeling better until I walked all over the airports on the return trip like nothing had happened. Turns out I dislocated my (and possibly broke it). For the most part I was doing what I should have (let's not talk about that 2 mile hike in flip flops). It's a lot better now but I still can't tolerate a shoe. Hopefully soon.
Timing of the trip was a little complicated since our older children who live in CA and GA didn't have as much time as we did yet both wanted to visit both sides of the family (OH and PA). We spent a few days with my parents in OH, drove to PA where the kids flew in to meet us (on different days from one another), spent time with DH's side of the family enjoying wonderful Italian food and wine (and s'mores cooked over a fire pit in the back yard). Then we drove the whole crew back for few more days in OH.
I also got to spend a day in Columbus to visit with my buddy, Renee. We had so much fun and the day went by way too quickly.
I spent a lot of time enjoying the weather outside with my foot propped up and got to do some stitching too. Here's some of my progress on:
Beds of Roses:
CCN's Red, White, and Bloom
Hopefully it won't be so long before I post another blog entry. Happy July, everyone!
