Accomplish much! I will miss the top 10. :(

Absolutely have a fantastic break. *jealous*
Slamdunk said…
Looks like an enviable list Carol. Enjoy your time away.
Stina said…
Wow, I haven't played Tiddlywinks since I was a kid. I don't know if my kids even know what it is.
Tracy Jo said…
I have tried doing the alphabet backward when I run...seriously can't believe how hard that is! :-) That will keep me busy. I will miss you! Have a great break!
Anonymous said…
Or we could just read back over your past top tens....have a relaxing break.
Enjoy those three weeks!
Talli Roland said…
I'd love to solve the mystery of life! Or would I... hmm. :)

Have a great weekend!
Julie Flanders said…
Have a great break, Carol! I promise to have the mystery of life solved by the time you return. :D

And thanks for the heads-up about Ciara's book, that's awesome.
Johanna Garth said…
Enjoy yourself and I'm off to download Ciara's book!

How about learn to sight read Braille? LOL!

Great list apart from the fact that I really hate that word Bangs. It's fringe over hear which makes so much more sense ;o) LOL!
Carol Kilgore said…
Anne - I hope so, too.

Laura - And the top ten will miss you, too :)

Linda G - I still tackle my own from time to time, with the same result :)

Andrea - Thanks. Anybody can do three weeks, right?

Em-Musing - I'll double up on the fun times for you so you can share :)
Lydia Kang said…
Have a great break and see you when you come back! I love that little sand heart, and I can't remember the last time I played TiddlyWinks!
Maryannwrites said…
Have a great respite.
J.L. Campbell said…
Enjoy your time off. I'd try to solve the mystery, except I know there are no answers.
Linda Kage said…
Ugh. I just did number four and it looks awful. Can't wait until my bangs grow out a little longer. See, this is what happens when you leave!!!!!
Liza said…
Enjoy your time off! Love the sand heart!
Carol Kilgore said…
Slamdunk - Figure out the mystery of life while I'm gone, will ya :)

Stina - Neither have I.

Jennifer - Miss you, too :)

Tracy Jo - My mother-in-law could do it really fast. Me, not so much :)

Delores - There you go...perfect!
Elspeth Futcher said…
Just don't spend your time writing blog posts! Or at least, don't spend too much time.
Ciara said…
Thank you so much for the shout out!! I hope you have a fantastic weekend.
Carol Kilgore said…
Alex - I intend to!

Talli - Yeah, I know. Same here.

Julie - Oh, very cool :)

Johanna - I'll do my best!

Madeleine - Oops. I don't always remember all the dual-meaning words.
Have a great blog break, and congrats on the upcoming release of your book! Maybe I will finally get around to organizing my sock drawer! Julie
Thanks for the link to Rise From Darkness.

Lydia - I was a kid the last time I played. And I think I only played a few times.

Maryann - I plan to stay busy, so I don't know how much of a respite I'll have.

J.L. - You're a smart woman :)

Linda K - I did that a couple weeks ago. They're longer now :)

Liza - Thanks!
Unknown said…
You can always help me move! ;)

Golden Eagle - Thank you :)
LR said…
Love the adorable sand heart. Aww.

I have a tendency to wear mismatched socks (at home). So should probably organize the sock drawer.

Wish you a wonderful blog break and lots of productivity (I wish the latter for myself too). :)
Janet, said…
Sounds like you are going to be busy on your break. Hope you accomplish everything you set out to do. I love the heart formed in the sand!
Luanne G. Smith said…
In other words, another day in the life...

Have a great break. I'll be on a break myself. I am alphabetted out.
Carol Kilgore said…
LR - Thanks for the good wishes. I wish the same for you. Good luck with those pesky socks :)

Janet - I'll be happy to accomplish half of all I need to do. Glad you like the heart :)

L.G. - I'm sure you are. No way could I have tackled A-Z this year. Enjoy!
Christine Rains said…
Enjoy your break! :) I really need to organize my sock drawer.
Carol Kilgore said…
Christine - I think those socks switch partners in the dark.
Have a great time!

Nas said…
Is that a natural formation of the rock by the sea?

Have a great time!
Carol Kilgore said…
Nas - No. It's a small sand sculpture at the entrance to SandFest last week in Port Aransas, Texas.
Arlee Bird said…
Have a great break. I'll be playing solitaire, but I've been doing that too much anyway.
