New Year Brings ................................?

What excitement does the New Year bring?  Our life demands a slower pace.  A chance to renew our spirits.  A chance to take out the old and bring in the new.  Probably some want to change their diet; others want to exercise--ME? Nope, not changing my diet or running to the gym for exercise.  I'm happy the way I am!  Yes--there are some goals to reach (in my mind only)  Don't write it down--that holds you to the goal!  Nope!  Just please myself--No one else.  

I plan to live in the moment!!  

Here is one of my Christmas gifts to myself--a microwave popcorn bowl!  Yes!  Love fresh hot popcorn!  This one needs only three tablespoons of popcorn--first time I used it, I thought three wasn't enough, so I added one more!  of course, when it finished popping, there was about one tablespoon of kernels left unpopped!
Lesson #1--follow directions--lesson learned!

Pop! POP! and the lid rises up!  Spray with butter oil, add salt or flavorings and you're ready to watch that favorite nail biting movie!


Gift from Son!  Solar powered bird feeder!  With camera to see the birds upclose and personal!
this should be fun!
Lesson #2--Be patient!  The Birds will come!

Lesson #3 Celebrate the small things in life!
It felt great to finish these mitts!  Will I keep them or gift them?  Knit with spindle spun silk—four ply

This is Stephen West pattern--a freebie!  
Camera doesn't show the Yellow color very well. 
Keep on Keep on!  The pattern contains cables (not my friend) 

The hat turned out fine!!


Lesson #4  Accept Challenges as you move along the path of life!
And life moves on!
