Rich & Full

As with each New Year, I feel a good fresh energy in January. This year is no different, except that the new energy is lasting all month. I have so much going on, and many new possibilities. Rather than repeat the last years, as if by rote, each year is new. I am not going to the New York Gift this year, for example, but that will not hold me back. Quite to the contrary.IMG_3803

My lab, my living room. My faithful listeners; “but Mommy, what are you doing on that side of the table?”

Rich, full, complex. Such is the new year.

IMG_3792I long for my trips this spring, to Italy in March and Paris in May~

I am addicted to my camera. And I am trying to find a pic of me in Paris that I had my hands on three days ago that has been swallowed up by the house, so that I can answer Karena’s questions properly illustrated….more soon.

Til then, hope your lives are rich & full as well….please click on each of the pics for full view. I love the soothing nature of this set.

Oh, and be sure to stop by the Metis Blog for a creme puff tutorial this morning!

  2. Thank you for sharing the soothing nature of these images; it brings some peace to my morning after coming back home after navigating around and between snow banks and speeding automobiles.

  6. Beautiful images. I can totally relate to your picture problem. I'm blogging and procrastinating right now digging through these piles to find the notes I made to do a room layout for a client. It's snowing and I don't want to work. Hunting for things only makes it worse. happy Friday. Mona

    I am hoping to get a few days in Manhattan, soon as the weather allows. Can't wait to walk down Fifth ave and see all the beautiful flowers.
