End of The Year

    The end of another year is fast approaching.  This last year passed way too fast for me.

    WRITING:  I tried to write on a new story each month. Moving from one story to another keeps me from becoming bored too quickly.  I finished two of the eight books I worked on this year.  You can find snippets from most of them here on my blog.

    HAND WORK:  I worked on and finished several crocheted items.  I worked on many sewing projects as well.  I hardly did any knitting, having other things going, but just this month I knit a scarf and am working on a pair of sock which will take a while.  I did some wood burning this year as well, which was new and fun.

    DRAWING:  I am always doodling but this year I did a lot of drawing.  We older girls started a paper doll blog which we have wanted to do for a while and finally published it in March.  It has been a joy for me to come up with the ideas and then execute them.  The end result can be very different from what I first pictured in my head.  I have not been disappointed yet, which is a good thing. =)  Designing dress/outfits for paper dolls is faster and costs less then designing for yourself or even a larger doll.  This adventure has given those of us who like this sort of thing a chance to practice our skills. It has been easier then I had expected.

    FAMILY:  My sister Bobbie, who I have mentioned before, was married in June and is now expecting a baby!  I am going to be an Aunt!!!  It is very exciting to me.  Her husband is a great guy and fits into the family very well.
For years Bobbie and I (being so close) planned out our futures.  In our dream futures we remained very close sisters, our husbands were good friends and we were good friends with each other's husbands.  So far that has been true. =)

    And so this new year will start.  Do I have any big goals for 2015 you ask?  No, not today anyway, except being the best Aunt ever! ;)

    I hope you all had a good year and are looking forward to this next year with hope, love, and grace.
