It’s been a wonderful time…

  I’ve been pleasantly amazed how relaxing this trip to Hawaii has been… my hubby has completed his work as usual during the week which leaves me most days to just sit by the pool ( I know tough life lol lol ) or to wander around the area quietly. The nice thing about this trip is I have thoroughly enjoyed the lack of demands, appointments, obligations? Sadly my poor hubby is home sick.. he left home a few days before me and started this trip in Calif before heading on to Hawaii so he’s tired and ready to head home. ;-)

We have one more day to enjoy and it’s a weekend day so Bill gets to have some fun before we head home on the long dreaded flights…..we are going on a biking, sailing, snorkel day with his college friends who just happen to be in Waikiki.

It’s going to be hard to leave paradise and get back to the norm….  but oh well..there’s always my quilting ;-))))

Only 3 more days ;-(

After enjoying my day in the sun I realize there are only 3 more days this trip for us to try to squeeze in as much fun and sun as possible before we head back to snow? ??? Not sure what we will find when we head back to VA but I DO KNOW it will not be this paradise…..

Tomorrow we hope to head over to the North Shore because we’ve heard the waves are up? 15 to 20 foot high waves? Surfs up!

Bill’s got friends from college days in Hawaii now and he’s planning to show them around a little.. Saturday we go on a Biking, Sailing & Snorkeling day with them. Sounds like fun….Sunday we fly home All DAY! ;-(

So when in Hawaii….enjoy!

So though I am trying to get back to old habits I must take into account that when given certain opportunities one must stop and enjoy those moments. I am fortunate to be in Waikiki at this moment thanks to my hubby and his  job. During the last hmmm think 3 years my husband has work that takes him to Honolulu every once in a while. It can be grueling days for him since the time change can mean he sometimes gets up by 5:00am to work with VA co-workers and then completes full days of Hawaii time workday.  When I used to be employed it left me stuck in VA imagining the sun of Hawaii. Occasionally he managed to time his work during my Easter break or summer break which was always quite nice. Bill actually is the one that suggested I retire to be available to come along ;-)) which is such a Sweet time for me!  So sorry to make this a long story instead of shortnbut in a nut shell I am in Waikiki this week!!!

I am going to try to do some art work while here just for fun and I hope to get back into posting on my blog but other then that I intend to just sit back and relax!!

Here’s a little of the lovely sunset we enjoyed last night!

Along with some of my local art… the white clay flower on the right is the one I made…. and here’s some hand appliqué I hope to finish during this week.
