In the spring of 1993, I gave myself an enormous gift to mark my entry into the Half-A-Hundred Club. In those days, 50 was not the new 30, so the passage required a bit of easing into.
I decided to celebrate my benchmark birthday with a mini-version of my longtime dream of living on the ocean. After months of research, I found just the right place in Delaware: a 2-story condo at the quiet end of the Rehoboth Beach boardwalk. The off-season months of March and April were soothingly silent.
The seaside sabbatical exceeded my sky-high expectations. Each day, I gathered an abundance of gifts from the sea -- exquisite shells, glimmering sea glass, a tiny well-preserved seahorse (still cherished 19 years later). The most precious gift, however, turned out to be one I discovered when a fire alarm went off at 3 a.m. one night.
Startled awake, I jumped out of bed, mind churning: What should I grab?
I ran to the box of journals I'd brought, planning to re-read all 13 of them. I grabbed the box, threw my purse into it and was headed for my jewelry when the landlord's voice boomed, "False alarm, folks. Sorry."
I'll share more pictures of my Key Keeper & my full thoughts on the pattern next week. For now though I will tell you one thing, just in case you're thinking about getting started on it this weekend - I don't recommend adding the pocket that is in the pattern, unless you're going to add it to the outside. It won't act as much more than a divider, and personally, I don't think it makes much sense in a coin purse.
