Today


In deference to January, I changed my background page to silver; as in ice and snow.  It's supposed to be really cold here next week with lows in the 20's and highs in the 40's or 50's.  That's cold for here.  We haven't had much cold weather so far.  In fact, our spirea bush is blooming as are the apple trees; not good.  Next good frost and they'll be no apples next year.

This is the first Saturday I've had free in a long time.  I've had a great day so far.  Darcie and I completely cleaned out the hall closet.  We took everything out, vacuumed, threw away, and packed it back in.

I'm making progress on my ironing pile too.  I've now ironed all my husband's clothes.  I told him that for about two weeks he can't wear anything that has to be ironed!  I want to glory in it for a little while!  Of course, there's still the  other things to be ironed, but progress is being made.

My friend Katy has inspired me to make a creativity journal and record my progress every day.  I think I'll just write in my regular weekly to-do book so I won't have yet another book to keep up with!  I do think that if I write down my creative endeavors every day that I'll be more likely to do creative things.  So, I'm off to the studio....

Oh yippee, cold weather!!
But, important question: this cold snap won't adversely affect my beloved blueberry bushes, right?!!
Please tell me that there will be another bumper crop this year. I have been dreaming of them already and counting down the months...

I ironed my husband's clothes for the first time since baby arrived (um, over 2 months ago!).

It felt so wonderful, I wish I had tackled the job earlier.
