Happy New Year!

Belated of course!

Wow, has it been almost 2 months since I blogged??? The holidays kept me very busy and now I am in the midst of planning a trip to Disney. I think I am more excited than the kids are!

Even though life is still crazy busy my mind spins with all the projects I want to do. I still love painting and want to take a few more classes to hopefully improve my skills. I guess I should be blessed that my interests are returning because for a long time I really didn't care about much after losing my mom.

Thanks to my best friend I have taken an interest in crocheting again and even learning to knit! knitting is more challenging for me; crocheting I learned when I was 6 years old from my Grandmother and could do it with my eyes closed I think. I received a Lion Brand catalog in the mail this week and these adorable little animals caught my eye!

Mainly because I own two poodles and just adore them and secondly because my son loves lions! So, now that football season is over I am going to get back in the creative groove again.



It has been very cold in Texas lately and I am sad to say that my outdoor herb garden has died :( I miss clipping off fresh basil for my salads. I've been eyeing the Aerogarden lately; my sister has one and loves it and it's totally organic so that will be the next thing I treat myself to if I don't go bankrupt in Disney :)

Last but not least; I have yet to read my Da Vinci code book but I am definitely loving the Chianti wine!
Isn't the bottle pretty?
It's art in itself and I don't want to throw the bottle away when it's done.

Well Ciao for now and hopefully it will not be another month before I blog again!
