Happy Thanksgiving!

I am thankful for my friends and family. It was a wonderful day with too much food and tons of fun and love to go around.

Invictus Out of the night that covers me, Black as the Pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds, and shall find, me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. William Ernest Henley

Red sky at night
Sailor's delight.

Red sky at morning
Sailor's take warning.

Sun rise this morning ~ yep it was another one of those days.

Sweet little pumpkins sitting in the sun. 


I love this time of year, it is so colorful, and the air is so crisp. Can't wait to go out for a walk today. I'm blowing off all my promises to be social today and I'm just going to be with me! Sitting here, writing in my new blog, feels like such an indulgence already. It's something that I'm just going to have to get used too [big smile]. The kids are getting older and I finally see that I can do things for me. For years I've been looking forward to the days where I can start work on projects that reflect my ideas. No more..."can you make this for me?" Alright, I know that will still happen, but I'm going to say "No!" more and this blog is going to be my journal of my new journey into this new phase in my life. I'm so excited. So off I go...

First Timer

This is my first time blogging, I'm so nervous. I've been wanting to create a blog for a long time now. Looking forward to my new journal of my photographs and designs.
