I am always restless before a trip. Packing clothes, books and so forth. I will leave on Saturday for Cape Cod to house sit for friends who will be away. I am bringing my camera and computer as the friends have a router. Thus I can access the internet. I may do one last post on Friday, but otherwise, see you on the Cape.

Packing

Oh, I cannot wait to see photos, what fun, a change of scenery yet you maintain your solitude! By the way......where is that cheesecake? :)
Have the most wonderful time, Suki - you deserve it and it will do you good I am sure. I have always wanted to visit Cape Cod (I am convinced it comes into a novel by Nevil Shute, though I can't recall the title but the story was absolute magic). I will await your blog words and pics with pleasurable anticipation. (How about keeping/making a little travel journal ???)
Yes, always unsettling before going to a different place
Have a super visit.
Have a wonderful trip/time there...enjoy the ocean waves...what will the weather be like I wonder? Walks on the beach doable?
I love your fabric bag. Who made it? I have a lot of swatches of upholstry fabric...I should use them for a bag for me! Thanks for the idea.
I look forward to your photos from the cape.
Oops I forgot to check the box to follow this post. I'm doing it now.
Lucky, lucky you!!! Have a great time and take lots of pictures. Can't wait to go with you.
what a great bag. what a great change for you. and yes did you finish all that cheescake? have a good time and some peace and restful thoughts. hugs.
Suki, I took your idea of a little list of what I'm doing from your side bar...are you okay with this?
Do not want to be a thief of ideas.
But if not I shall remove it.
Artist unplugged, The cheesecake is for Friday. I made it a bit early due to anxiety about preparing meals for parties. Now, since my brother is not coming, it will be mostly all for my son.
Ann, thanks. I don't know what novel that would have been. I have contemplated bringing glue sticks but am maybe not that organized. I dont know. No time to make a journal right now though. And all my needles and thread for books are packed away.
Thanks Elizabeth.
Lynn, generally the temps are 10 degrees milder down there, at least. As long as the wind isnt bad, I think I can go to the beach.
I bought the fabric bag at the farmers market last summer and just love it. So "rich" looking like the old carpet bags.
Lynn, the list idea in the sidebar was Willow's idea originally. I asked her if I could copy and she said yes. As far as myself goes, I'm happy for you to copy it too. As you see, I gave credit to Willow in that section below the list.
Katie Jane, thanks. It will be fun to be able to post my pictures. also I dont have a card thingy so can only hold 24 pictures in the camera at a time. So I like to get them transferred to the computer right away.
Soulbrush the cheescake is for friday. I guess I will give most of it to son since brother is not coming.
Oh boy I love the Cape, please take lots of photos and share them.
Thanks for your suggestions on book binding-they were so helpful that I went shopping. :)
teri, glad that some of my comments were helpful. have fun binding,suki
Have a fantastic time Suki, you deserve the break.
I love your fabric bag also.
I also am quite excited to see the Cape, Suki! What a thrill for those of us who have always wanted a trip there. Right now I'm thinking about a trip I will be taking soon. It's only for the weekend but my energy has been changing in preparation. I know exactly what you mean about packing...and that getting ready feeling. <3
Oh, I'm so excited for you, I know how you love the area and it will be such a nice change from the woods! Enjoy!
I'm sure the packing anxiety will leave as soon as you are on your way...again, enjoy!

Oh how fun.. going away to the Ocean. I hope your Brother will be there for feeding your cats tho.
You have fun and hope we hear from you.
Suki, I am so glad you are getting this wonderful opportunity to spend some time on the Cape. It will be lovely to hear from you while you are there.
Be Safe and Have a Great Trip!
thanks Patti. that bag sure holds a lot of stuff.
Cynthia, I hope you have a great WEEKEND trip. I just hope I remember to take my camera. I do have a chehov list. :) joke is not original.
BSD, I am really looking forward to new sights, the ocean, meeting with old friends.
Cris, yes my brother has committed to staying home for 2 weeks to tend my cats which is very nice of him for up here I dont know anyone else to get to come in and tend them.
Kim, yes I am lucky to have this friend who is very relaxed about having people stay in her house whether she is there or not. All summer she has a revolving door of guests. She is very generous.
Ooooh! A trip to the Cape. FUN!!! I can hardly wait! I love to travel (even vicariously).
Happy birthday to your son.
See you on the Cape! : D
Oh, I DO hope you have a great time Suki,,,and please,,,,some of your magic photos!
That is an awesome bag,,,,looks like a great traveler too.
How nice to have such a friend, and someone to watch your babies while you're gone. Perfect!
Lucky you! Take lots of photos. Safe journey, see you there. Have a fun Birthday party tomorrow!
...listen to the ocean waves, and be reborn.
Enjoy your change of scenery and eat cheesecake for breakfast...I would consider that a part of this special vacation for you :)
Please stop by my kitties blog and pick up your Kreativ Blogger award...they know you love cats, too.
