I took a little vacation to California last week. I spent a day at Disneyland and the rest of the time I just hung out with my friends. It was fabulous. I took a small WIP with me and never touched it. In fact, when I finally picked it up this morning, I realized I really do not like it, so it’s history.

Glad you had a good holiday.

It's never worth spending time on something that doesn't totally enthuse you, so the decision to never start the stitching must have been fairly easy.

Welcome back! I love Disneyland and Disney World (closer to home)! Hard to just spend one day but spending time with friends is even better.
I almost always take a WIP and almost always don't lift one needle. Sounds like a good vacation!

Glad you had a good time.
I have been taking on hols for more years than I care to remember one small project that has never seen the light of day. I now take it to the village craft club and I still haven't done much - too busy chatting

I usually get at least some stitching done, usually at night when everyone else has gone to bed, but this time by the time they went to bed, I was ready as well.

Richard, you're right. And I'm getting much better at realizing even though I loved something when I bought it, my tastes have changed and I have to let it go.

Carole, I've been to Disney World once (one two day visit) and to Disneyland hundreds of times. This time it was a visit much like I used to do when I lived about 10 minutes away. I only went on one ride and the rest of the time I walked around, ate (of course I had to have the corn dog!), and people watched. I thought about going on more rides but the ones I wanted most were either closed or the queues were in the sun and it was hot. Despite that, my Disney day was perfect.

Glad you had such a nice time!

I go on holiday partly in order to stitch and weave! Never seem to find enough time at home... But regarding the discarded design: good on ya. No time for stuff that doesn't grab you.

Glad you had a good vacation.

Sounds like a great little holiday!
