Hi All! I made a spur-of-the-moment decision after Christmas to have my blog updated. I had communicated with Linda Primmer a few years ago about having her do some work on the blog, but I just never got around to making a decision.
Happy Friday everyone! I trust you all had a good Christmas and New Year. This is one of my favorite times of the year -- after the Christmas holidays are over and we can catch our breath again. I love putting out my new calendars, which are like lovely, clean slates, and knowing that I have a new, promising year ahead. Amazingly, the temperatures here in North Carolina stayed below freezing from New Year's Day until Monday, January 8th. It made being inside the house really cozy. The sky was blue most of that time, and I loved seeing the long shadows of the leafless tree branches. There is beauty to be found in every season, isn't there?
I have some catching up to do for sure. First of all, I was saddened to read about the death of Sue Grafton, author of the alphabet mystery series. I thought it was somewhat poignant that she made it all the way through the letter "Y", but didn't make it to the end of the alphabet.
