This has been another week of being sick. I guess we got what the kids had and they got what we had, so a double flu. Luckily I have meds that help keep the symptoms down, but it also means I get less done and I am behind on decorating.
I was able to finish one project and while resting, I am working on a few more. This is a design I wanted to do, to match another pillow I have, so I have them on my chest with a few stuffed Christmas dolls. The design is by Robin Kingsley from her book, Snow Happy.
We were able to spend a day at the beach. I always feel better at the ocean, with the cool salt air. One beach looks across to Newport and we can watch the ships are they come in, this is a barge being pushed in by a tug boat.
Another beach is nice, since we can find more old glass here and Bean loves to play in the water, even when its freezing.
I was able to find a few nice pieces of glass, from both beaches, always nice when we catch the tide, at the right time.
Speaking of Bean, he loves the new toy I got him. It came in a set of 4, so when he destroys one, I can give him another.
It also makes a fun photo op.
And more feathered friends are coming in for the winter. I finally got to see the Pilieted Woodpecker. She seems to like the dead pine trees on the side of the house. I am hoping I can catch her with a better close up, to get finer detail.
I hope everyone had a nice week and are avoiding the flu's going around. This one is not a fun one and even Bill had to take the day off.

Children are always so willing to share their germs! hope you feel better soon... the ocean is very restorative. Love the woodpecker with the red crown... and your snowmen are lovely.
