MY OWN WINTER WONDERLAND

Just sharing a little holiday bling....the nice thing about being a snowman person is after Christmas you dont feel the rush to take it all down !!! as long as its winter I am safe to have a little snowman village in my dining room...Christmas came and went just like it always does...the hustle and bustle are all over now except now there is a new hustle and bustle still swarming in my head...in the form of wedding bells chaos...now that Christmas is over , I feel like I am on a downhill sled without brakes....so for all you experienced wedding planners send your thoughts and prayers my way.. May 16 is going to be here before we know it !!!

Wishing everyone a very happy new year filled with blessings and baubles !!!!!

MORE SAVING GRACE

MY SAVING GRACE

All it takes is once a month, once a month to meet with my creative , soulful friends to get me re energized....today was our December meeting of SPQOH ( society for the preservation of quaint old homes) and I always come away from the meeting with a smile and a little dance in my step... we meet once a month and share stories , ideas, smiles and tears, fears or whatever else we want to.. it is a unique group of women of all ages who have been blessed with special talents...every month I learn something new or meet a new friend or become reaquainted with an old one.. it is truly my creative saving grace....today we met at my friend Sharon's house...she is a nurse and works at the hospital with me...she is incredibly talented and this is the second old home her and her husband Walt have restored...
