Trains, Planes and Automobiles

This morning, my lovely daughter and grandson drove me to the North Point Marta station so I could return to my husband in St Louis. As I grabbed my bags and kissed them both good bye, I became teary eyed knowing that I was leaving my loved ones behind. After I boarded the train, I was feeling excited about seeing my husband. It seems as though we have been separated for months but in reality, it's only been about 2 weeks.
Marta is the way to go, let me tell you. The train is clean, cool and whisks through the city, leaving cars and traffic behind. For a mere $2.25, it was quite the bargain.
As for Air Tran, they are my new favorite airline. If your departure time is 12:30, you can bet that your plane is pulling away from the gate.
Upon landing, on time, in St Louis, I was greeted by my Fred. :) Again, we choose the Metro to return to the RV.
Steve Martin would be proud!

Your visit has already come to an end? I'm disappointed we didn't get together for dinner while you were here. When will you return? I'm sure you were incredibly busy with your daughter and new grandson. Don't stay away too long, Deb. They grown in a blink of the eye. Hope to see you soon! In the meantime, keep blogging so we may stay in touch. Miss you!

Hi Debra, Fred flys home on Monday and returns Friday. We should be back around the 23rd of June. I talked to Chere and told her I intend to see you guys then if you are available because I would so love that!
I can't believe Jamie's baby bump already! Isn't she around 3 months pregnant? Is she feeling good, feeling different? Does she feel as if this may be a little girl?

A Peak at 2010 for Fellow Taureans

Year 2010 Overview Taurus always gets tagged with things like "pleasure-seeking" and "materialistic." That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life the last couple of years when it comes to those two very important parts of your life. Thankfully, 2010 marks the end of that long uphill struggle . Your pleasurable pursuits have been a little more restricted than you'd like over the course of the last two years or so. That's over with now, so ... game on! The big events this year will not so much be a matter of major happenings as they will be things that have been in the works and are slowly revealing themselves . In the last two years, you've put a lot of work into what makes you happy, while Saturn transited your solar Fifth House. Now that those pressures are finally bei...

Christmas in July Give A Way

What better way to celebrate the middle of summer with a give a way for one lucky blogging friend? Just because I want to, I will be giving away a Christmas box with an accordion album. This happens to be my design and I have already given one away last December. Sorry, Kate , you will have to sit this one out! This paper mache box holds an accordion album inside. More than likely, I will make a minor modification to the box before shipping it to its new home. I really love these vintage papers from Melissa Frances Scrapbook . Her collection of designs and patterns reminds me of a little sea side cottage. I can smell the ocean spray right now. These papers bring me back to a time when I think I would have loved to live…The Victorian Age. But let’s not fool anyone, I want all of the modern day luxuries. This paper on the left takes me back to a time when I played with cut outs. I was never a doll kid, but give me cut outs and I was happy for days. S o if you think you would ...
