feeling accomplished....

gonna start the year off with revamping the craft room/office ........ wanted to have the chair finished before starting .....  yes.... jumped in & went for it ! 

...................... i am blessed !

all is calm.....

  i am blessed!

simple & blessed.....

the simpleness of twinkling lights ...... my mom's Santas ...... the calm ..... the peace......  

the complete simpleness of just realizing ..... how blessed !

in the cold of the night......

seems like we just jumped into the cold ..... the days were warm & suddenly it is here ..... that time when we love to snuggle under a blanket and sit close to the fire ......... that day we realize what is coming ... we become ever so mindful of how things are brown ... and dreary & cold when we look out the window and can no longer linger in the yard to spruce up our surroundings ........ i think it is God's way of saying " rest a bit ".... time for us to concentrate on US ... our well being ... mental..physical..spiritual .....,,,,, the time to renew ourselves ... our indoor homes ... & tackling that long list of things to do ........,,, yes...,,,, that is what i will do .....,, first me ..... " renew me Oh Lord "...................i am blessed ! 

when the candles are lit...

 the twinkling of lights.....the lighting of candles....... it's time for Christmas Tea...................i am blessed!
