Painting Rainbows . . .

Thanksgiving is behind us and a week of vacation has come to an end.  Vacations always seem to go by so fast, but I tried to make the most of each day . . . and to not eat too much.  With the exception of enjoying pumpkin pie for breakfast one morning . . . I think I succeeded.  I stayed up late, slept in, wore silly slippers, read books, and drank champagne.  I didn't do everything else that I intended on doing.  I have a couple of projects started . . . but they are just sitting there.  That is mostly due to Charlotte wanting me to read with her or her wanting to paint rainbows.
Never pass up a chance to paint rainbows with a child . . . 

Tonight . . .

Outside my window . . . dark and cold – I am not a big fan of winter, but it feels cozy inside tonight.

I am thinking . . . that 2015 is going to be a good year.
I am thankful for . . . two week off over the holidays
From the kitchen . . . coffee

I am wearing . . . leggings and a big warm sweatshirt

I am creating . . . origami cranes, a doll, and some pages in my art journal

I am going . . . to enjoy every last minute of my vacation.

I am reading . . . The World of PostSecret by Frank Warren

I am hoping . . . to clean out my closet before I go back to work.

I am hearing . . . The Walking Dead Marathon . . . zombies growling :)

Around the house . . . 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle, glitter, and origami paper

One of my favorite things . . . my little skeleton (a gift this fall from Ashley) 

A few plans for the rest of the week . . . play some tennis, get some walking in, and go listen to some live music.

From my picture journal . . .

 The Clown Shoes Chocolate Sombrero was very good.  One of my new favorites.  

This is why I do not like winter . . . that high of 70 looks pretty good for next Tuesday.

While I was making little wire chairs yesterday . . . Richard was out in the garage building a stand for his stringer.  He still wants to add a shelf  and a pull out tray.
