Write a good one...

"Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 365 page book. Write a good one."

- 2014 -

Clearly I'm already starting off the New Year a day late (and most likely a dollar short), as this should have been posted yesterday.

A year of new beginnings, new opportunities. 

A blank slate, just waiting for each of us to make our impression on it.

Baby and I want to wish all of you a very Happy New Year.

I use this journal to keep track of hours spent on my at-home transcribing jobs.

As you can see, Baby would prefer that I pay attention to her rather than the deadlines I have at hand. Just remember, Baby, if I don't type, you don't eat.

Ahhh, she took that to heart and finally drifted off to sleep on the desk while I typed.

My little office/studio mate.

The photos you see in my next post might be of our Nor'easter. It's been snowing all day, and we are expecting to wake up to perhaps 12-14" of snow by tomorrow morning. Schools have already cancelled all classes for Friday. 

And Baby and I are dreaming of spring.

I'm joining My Romantic Home for Show & Tell Friday this week.

Happy New Year, everyone!

I'm as ready as I'll ever be... Goodbye 2008 - Hello 2009!

2008 (March 16th, to be precise) was my introduction into the world of blogging (not just lurking)...


I've met so many wonderful people through my blog, and I include you in the many blessings I'm thankful for this year... I love the caring and sharing community of blogging. I've learned so much from so many of you. It is truly a supportive group of women...


I've owned this book for many years now and I really, really like it. Are all of the suggestions practical for me? No. But enough of them are (emphasis on organization - my downfall) that I hope I can stick to reading each day's entry and apply those things that could benefit me in my life.

I've purchased my 2009 calendars, and have even made some entries already...


There's my Lang Lowell Herrero mini kitty calendar....



(Look at those sweet kitty faces and poses!!!)

...and my Flavia 'Garden of Hope' mini calendar...

... filled with words of wisdom and beautiful artwork... One calendar will hang in my office and the other in the kitchen...

Do you know that I have kept every one of my wall calendars since my girls were born? It's funny... back then most of the appointments were pediatrician appointments whereas now they're medical appointments for me! My, my, how things change in 20+ years!!

I wish you all a joyous and peace-filled 2009....

Happy New Year!!!

COMMENT UPDATE: I got the Flavia mini calendar at Wal Mart (before the holidays) and the LANG American Cat calendar at Borders this past week (50% off all calendars!)...
