Happy New Year

So I'm just a little late on the Happy New Year wishes. We spent a very low key New Years Eve...barely staying awake until 12:00, and then hitting the decks because of all the gun shots going on outside!

Spent New Years Day just hanging out at home, slowly putting away the Christmas stuff. Got all done except for the trees.  I was off today so I took the trees down and cleaned up the house. Looks back to normal once again!

I meant to show you all the beautiful Waterford ornament my son and daughter-in-law gave me for Christmas.

The picture doesn't show the pretty blue color very well but take my word for it, it's gorgeous!

The only New Years resolution I ever made and actually kept was last year when I vowed that I would not buy a new purse for the whole year. And I didn't. But the year's over now and I got a Kohl's gift card from Rich for Christmas so what better way to spend it? Behold!

Once again the picture doesn't show the colors very well but it's a soft lavender and grey. So pretty and the perfect size for what I need!

I have a busy week ahead of me at work.  My coworker needs to take another week off to take care of her mom's estate business so I'm on my own still. Only now it's no longer the holiday and things will be much busier. At least it's a short week again.

Well, I hope that 2012 brings you all peace and love! I am going to try to blog more, comment more on other blogs and try to get more followers! Wish me luck!
