party like it's 1594!

just about 5 more hours left of the old tired year of 2008.  poor 2008, i'm sure it wasn't wanting to be remembered as the year that ended in a global financial crisis.  chin up Oh Eight, you did give us Obama and you were the year i got bangs again in which i never thought i'd do (and i like them).  see, it wasn't ALL bad.

i'm fully expecting 2009 to be far more exciting though, jam packed with: 

* adventures

* new finds

* travel

* paint

* magic

* success

* more hugs

* spills 

* laughter

* dreams

* open fields

* bare feet

* bliss

(to name a few).  no parties for me tonight, just a cozy quiet night in with my love, our friend Rob, and a sexy little green bottle of bubbles named Perrier.

Until next year my darling.

out with the old...

having a "Happy Old Year" sale in my shop to get ready for Oh Nine.  come on over and check it out!

a little r&r

well, christmas is over and here i sit on a sunday... relaxed.  no work tomorrow, i have all week to be me and i hope to get a lot of painting in.  it was a very nice christmas that went by very fast.  i cooked a turkey dinner for Damian's family (a vegetarian cooking a turkey dinner is always interesting) which i was told turned out delish!  

right now my bum is cozily snuggled into the couch while i enjoy a little plate of crackers & cheese, a glass of red wine, and the 1952 version of 'Moulin Rouge'.  i'm thinking i should light a fire to go with the rest of the ambience, plus, my toes are chilly.  

le sigh

i've been a 9-5 prisoner for 2 weeks now, busy, slowly going insane.  a real post coming shortly.  after next week i'm off for 2 full weeks over christmas and i need it baby, i need it!
