No blogging Mojo

Yes my mojo has been gone for a while…but I am pulling together as much energy and motivation I can to show you that..
I am still here…
and I have been having a wonderful time!
We left North Carolina the end of April and headed quickly to Connecticut for my nephews wedding and a big family reunion.
I knew it would be a busy, crazy whirlwind for a few weeks..and it was.
First my nephews wedding..which was wonderful and family filled.

The night of Patrick and Nydia's wedding we re-created

Our family have not been together as a whole in 10 years…there was always someone missing in one of our get togethers.
So it was wonderful that everyone was together again.
--------------------------------------
The following day we celebrated my birthday at my Sisters rental on Masons Island.
What a special day I had.
More photos Here
We had a few more days together before the Montana clan headed back home.

Since their departure I have been busy helping Muther and Dad in the garden, weeding and planting.
I also have my  little garden planted…
I recently purchased the Cat statue in honor of my Balliecat who is buried here.

I have a new toy.. A Fitbit.
I have been trying to walk at least seven miles a day.
Most days Jeff and I walk and bird Bluff Point.
When we first arrived there were no leaves on the trees.

What a difference a few weeks make..

Jeff and I also have taken a few walks with Sicksta Tink and Joe into downtown Mystic.
This particular day Jeff stayed home and rested. Apparently, since getting the Fitbit I have been a walking fiend and have tired him out.

Well …that’s all for now my friends…
I am still searching for my Blogging Mojo. If you happen to find it…please send it back to me.

    Claire Baker Thought cat statue was an owl at first....as for the mojo, suggest the long version of "LA Woman" while driving on a highway, a loong one!

  3. Hi Dawn.. I'd lost my "blog reading" mojo..but just paged thru a few of yours. Recently learned about the fitbit, thru a humor article by David Sedaris in the New Yorker. Sounds intriguing. The family re-creation foto was great..you sure have changed!
