Forecast: Chance of Spotty Blogging

My great-grandmother passed away this weekend. She made it all the way to 98, which is pretty awesome in my book. I am leaving tomorrow for Maine for the funeral on Saturday. Since it's such a long trip (we're driving), we're going to also take a few days and visit some state parks. I know I'll have internet for part of the trip and I highly suspect that I won't have internet for the other part. So, in a nut shell, blogging will probably be pretty spotty around here for the next week and a half or so.

My great-grandma, grandma, dad and me back in the day. My dad has thankfully lost the mustache.

I've been crazy busy the last couple of days, not packing which I did about an hour ago, but sewing. I find out that I'm going on a trip and the first thing I do is think about what project I might be able to finish to take with me. Oy. I think I'm a bit crazy. Yesterday, I whipped up a circle skirt which is currently hanging to let the bias set. And today I made a Pendrell blouse from start to finish and even wore it out to dinner. Hmm.... maybe I'm a lot crazy.


Anyways, I'm planning on wearing a lot of me made stuff on this trip and I'm bringing my little point and shoot camera so hopefully that means I'll have some pictures to share at some point in time. Hope you all have a great week!

    That is very impressive that your grandmother lived to by 98. I bet she had an awesome life! I am so sorry to hear about her passing. I will be praying for you.

    That is very sad. I am sorry for your loss. I had a hard time dealing with the death of my Great-Grandma too (who was 90 and died on my 7th birthday, but you had loads more memories than I had with mine, I am sure). I hope that you feel comfort. I am glad she was able to live a long life like that. Seems like a blessing.
    side note: I love Maine. One of my best friends live there.
