Hellooo! :o)
Although I was absent here in January, I was thinking about you often! Here is a Top Ten List of the Busyness that consumed me during the first month of 2010:
- Finding out my husband got a job in Colorado (WHOO-HOO!)
- Looking for our first home in Colorado (YAY!)
- Arranging for last-minute trips and Fanny-sitting.
- Recovering from said trips.
- Arranging all the paperwork for first-time home-buying.
- Starting to pack the non-essentials.
- Getting rid of the non-desirables.
- Adjusting to the idea of leaving California.
- Adjusting to the idea of (bawling my eyes out) saying bye to my local friends.
- Being excited about my husband and I starting a new phase in our lives.
And finally, as of yesterday, we are under contract for our first home in Colorado! :o) We are beyond EXCITED! We are Over the Moon! We are now further entrenched in paperwork and packing and making further arrangements for the move. But we could not be happier… and I could not feel more torn about leaving California. Therefore, during February I will try to post about all the things I love about my current home and the activities I am able to squeeze in before we leave.
In addition to all this activity, I am also exploring a new career path that is not exactly definable. I am discovering a new clarity and happiness in this fact, allowing my creativity to emerge from the dusty depths of my mind. Networking with fellow crafters and creative minds has been the driving force behind unleashing my inner artist. What kind of artist? I don’t know. Definitely not the painting/drawing type. But perhaps the type that works at a local yarn shop, teaches some knitting classes, and plays the cello? We’ll see what happens. Stay Tuned…
So Happy!

Hope you guys are enjoying your New Year’s Eve and are spending it with those you love!
Fanny Looking Forward
Fanny’s been feeling a little under the weather lately but she is doing okay now. She’s eating her food, drinking lots of water, and is almost back to her usual spunky self. Although I’m not sure what 2010 will bring for us, I know that I will try to adopt Fanny’s attitude of looking forward to what is yet to come, some new adventure waiting for us. Happy New Year Everyone!

This year has been a difficult one. I’m sure it has been for a lot of you too. But the hardships helped me realize a few things. I realized how much I need the support of my friends. I realized how much my husband and I depend on each other and how much we mean to each other. I realized how much my family means to me.
Through all the financial and emotional difficulties, I have had the support and love of my husband, family, and friends. How do you know when your life is full? When you reflect on the year and think of all the wonderful times you were able to spend with friends and family.
This season, I give thanks for all of my great blessings, for all the friends and family that support and love me. I hope you are lucky enough to have a similar group of people in your lives. Have a wonderful holiday season!

Just wanted to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! I’ll be spending it with my sister and her family this year. Hopefully, I’ll have some cute niece pictures upon my return! In the meantime, Fanny would like you to remember that dogs also love turkey and would like to help celebrate this great holiday too! :o)

What will you be doing this Thanksgiving? Hope it’s filled with good food and great company.
