Inspired to create!

I have been in baby mode this week.....a special friend is having a little boy next month! Her theme is FIRETRUCKS...fun, cute, adorable! I monogramed a few items along with making a hooded bath towel and a wall hanging! Fun to get back into the painting again...it's been awhile!
Something about baby things inspire me...I sure miss mine being little. I loved making dresses and outfits for both of mine along with painting special things for their teachers.
Now...on to the crafting room to get more organized...I feel a wave of painting and creating coming my way!

Grateful for my talents...Gods gift to me!

2011 Ready or Not...Here it is!

2011 is creeping in whether I am ready or not! I had great plans for 2010, "Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men"...!
Looks as if I will need to revamp my plans and see what I can accomplish is 2011. Both children (YOUNG ADULTS) will be gone from the nest this time next year sooooo my #1 plan is to try to prepare myself for the empty nest!!! I hate even saying it..it sounds so SAD but that's where my attitude needs an overhaul. I will start today, HOPEFULLY, to get a better attitude and start working on MY future!
I am 51 and still don't know what I want to be when I grow up..I have been a Jill of all trades up until this point...College Graduate...Display Girl...Store Manager....PTL President...Crafter...and MOM, my best job so far! I cherish all the MOM duties the most, I have never had a job I loved as much!
I strive to become a better person each day, most days I could use a little help but I'm trying! I want to be a better seamstress...take better pictures...take better care of myself...love life a bit more each day. I depend on God to help me with these things, I want to begin a closer walk with him. That's my goal at this very minute....

Living in the moment...minute by minute
