A Few Seasonal Treasures

I'll be spending Christmas with my fabulous step-children and their families and will not be posting on either Christmas Eve or Christmas day this week.

Rather than a long post, I thought I'd share a few small ornaments and decorations, little things that spark joy.

This little angel was the first ornament I ever purchased for myself, back in my early 20s.

Like the angel, these paper mãchè balls aren't precious in any monetary sense, but just bringing them out each season makes me smile and a tree without them seems lacking.

If you celebrate Christmas, may it be filled with Love and Laughter. No matter what your traditions, I hope that the light of the season will suffuse your life with joy. I'll be back next week.

I used to think of myself as continually distracted, but that is far from the truth. The truth is that I find the world to be filled with fascinating things that capture my attention. When I am doing something I love, be it reading a book, listening to music, sewing, knitting, learning something new, or just daydreaming, I am so totally focused that the intrusion of the world comes as something of a shock. There are so many things pulling at my hearstrings, so many things in which to lose myself, so many things tempting away from my one true passion ..... of the moment. I want to explore them all. Despite these changing passions, there are some constants in my affections: sewing, knitting, style and clothing, music, food. These are the main topics I will consider here, although there will be digressions and explorations as well.
