Today was an interesting day.  Teachers went back to school today but it was the first real day of my retirement.  I was a little melancholy but I weathered it well.  I had dinner at a friend's house.  They are here in Florida for two weeks but on Wed. leave to go back to New York.  One of my friends had an allergic reaction to shrimp, even though she has eaten it often.  We ended up having to take her to urgent care where they gave her the epi-pen.  Out of the five of us, she is the only one who had a reaction to the shrimp but it was quite frightening how quickly all the symptoms came on.

I stitched for awhile on Lizzie Kate's Scary Sampler.
