Hello! It's been awhile, I know. Crazy work schedule, nasty cold & a computer crash all joined together to keep me away for the last few weeks. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas, a fabulous New Year, and are raring to go for 2010!
I have much to share - knitting, sewing and even beading projects to show off, plans to discuss, a new Word of the Year to talk about... It's coming, don't you worry. In the meantime, here's a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson that I love, and hope you enjoy, too.
Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day is all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with it's hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on yesterdays.
Happy New Year! Welcome, 2010!
Great quote.

Hi there, Happy New Year to you. We had a wonderful Christmas and as usual once January is here I feel the need to start Christmas gifts for 2010! Not sure how long it will last though ;)
