IT'S A NEW YEAR, IT'S A NEW DAY...

Back from Vegas.

It was great, didn't win big but came home

with what I left with so that is a win for me.

A new year, a new day.

I am not one who likes New Years resolutions

but I do look at the new year as a way to

start some new ideas.

So, like many, I am going to begin again

to watch my weight. I have been good with this

before the New Year but time to get back

on the wagon.

I have not been good about my journaling.

With the things that have happened in the year

of 2014, I just got to where I didn't want to write.

Call it a block but I am determined to begin 

journaling daily again.

I also have a desire to not only scrap for others

for profit but scrap for my little grand babies.

I have not done much in Bean's book and she

is about to turn 4!

Have not even began J. Belle's....

Lots to do there.

I have had so many paying scrap jobs that I 'focused

on that but now, time to scrap for those I love.

I am praying, hoping, excited about

the prospect of selling this big house,

for me, for Ron, for my little family to put

an end to this chapter of our lives.

I want my own home, I want Ron to be

free of having this house as a "Monkey on his back"

It is the last thing we have from our old lives

and we are both ready to move on.

Anyone who knows me, knows how I love older

homes, old wood floors, the home I want

is still for sale in the garden district and as

soon as this one sells, if I can,

that one will be mines.

I love, love, love decorating, old things.

vintage, have not been able to do that here

as I have held off for the big sale.

Today, the house will show and I have my

fingers crossed that maybe even an offer is coming.

My realtor, Vickie has been most helpful 

but the homes here are just not showing.

Today it will..... Say a little prayer

that we can all move on with the sale of this home.

Then you will see the changes of the new year

for me, 

Welcome 2015, good riddance, 2014!
