Blooming

I could smell the fragrance of the Hyacinth as I came down the stairs last night before I saw the lavender flowers in full bloom.  By tonight, a few of the flowers have already faded.  Flowers are reminders of how beautiful and fleeting life can be.  Anticipation of a moment only seems to make the moment go faster.  Soon my flower will be gone, but right now it's a day brightener.  And it's a reminder that Spring is coming.  On a very cold day, looking forward to Spring and warmer days is worth the anticipation!

Quilts, Inspired? Nope!!!

Joyce bought her quilts in that her mother cross stitched from material Jil's aunt had and pasted on to Joyce, who is giving the quilts to her daughter!  I love the colors and the pattern, and everything about quilts.  But after my experience, I will only admire them!!!  I am not inspired to try again!

Working Saturday Is the Pits

In addition to my job, I also work for a church and had to get busy and complete donation statements, W-2's, and 1099's.  Done and filed for another year!  My Saturday is gone.  :(

Your Time Has Come To Say Goodbye!


Hopefully Santa will be out of here by the end of the weekend.  I was so happy to miss all the below 20 degree weather while I was in Hawaii, but Christmas past is still present and really needs to go!!  I'm ready for spring now.
