WEEKENDING


weekending, my favorite part of the week. a time to relax, live, love, just to be. if you'd like to share your weekend either with words, photographs, or both, leave a link to a weekend post in the commentsJoining with Amanda for her weekending post.

Spent another Saturday in
Charleston and have decided
I really like this southern city:
the people are pleasant,
the food is wonderful,
the weather perfect
and there is just so much
to do and see compared
to my little town.
Bought a lot [a whole lot]
of yarn for Christmas knitting,
but may have over estimated
my knitting time frame.
Sunday was cleaning
chicken coops, weeding
the fall garden and
watching my meat loving
guy's process 140 pounds
of ground venison for
the freezer.  
Loving this time change,
but not sure my internal
clock will get on track
before it's time to
change it back again!

  3. I've always wanted to visit Charleston. Sounds fabulous! Yes, Christmas is going to get here way before my yarn is used up. I'm sure you'll have better luck, though...you're WAY more productive than I'll ever be ;-). Happy Sunday evening to you!

    Can't wait to see the yarn purchases; I'm going to be enjoying other people's buying sprees for awhile since I'm on that yarn diet.

  9. I love the chickie! Great shot!

    It's nice to know that someone else has trouble assimilating to the time change. I walk around groggy and "off" for a week, sometimes more!

    I love venison. I had it only once a long time ago and it has never left my mind to want to try it again one day.

  16. Oh! Lots of yarn! Can't wait to see some of it. Do you have interesting venison recipes? I've only tried it a few times (ground and in a stew) so don't know if I really like it or not.

  18. I love this picture. I don't know if you had to get close to him, or if you had a good lens that can zoom in, but the detail and expression on his face are wonderful.
