Every Day

 Yesterday, Texas news was filled with predictions of ice and snow. So far we have only had rain. I hope that it stays like this. Larry and I have plans for tonight ....and I don't want to cancel.

With plans to stay inside today, I organized a project that I have been putting off. It is Jared, our son in laws Christmas stocking.(Like my mother, I welcome each new family member with a hand made Christmas stocking) We picked out the needlepoint canvas  last year, then after my thyroid surgery and  my vocal cord was paralyzed, I lost my MOJO. I really did not do anything creative for a very long time.

Yesterday, I got out Jared's stocking and hand stitched it onto my old needlepoint frame.

I am ready to re-start the stocking and have it stitched and constructed by next Christmas for Jared. 

Last night for dinner, I made grilled cheese and ramen soup. We had crisps and fruit. Larry insisted that we have Champagne with dinner as we watched the national news.

We had dinner in bed, on paper plates  with crystal Champagne flutes. It was really wonderful. No wonder I love Larry so much. The guy is a Renaissance man. His kind creative spirit motivates me every day.

What motivates you every day?

Ok, I must get busy on that Christmas stocking.

Love you beyond the moon.
