Ready To Share Again

 

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone is off to a great start to the new year. It has been several months since my last post. Much has happened in my little creative world and life in general.

I have made a few things, just didn't take the time to post. I may or may not do a review. I'll see how things go.  I'm very happy to say that I returned to Calumet Middle School as the sewing instructor for the after school program, which is one of the "high" lights of my year. I created a nice group of fun projects for junior sewers that I plan to share at some point. (I did a lot of chocheting.)

Every year I plan to read many books; some selected by the bookclub and some that personally interest me. See books below:

My 2025 big trip was to Alaska. This was my second trip there.  I'm still in awe of Alaska's beauty; the lad, people, culture, and animals.  Yes, I could easily visit again. There is so much to see and learn about this parr of the world.

2025 was fill with all kinds of events: HCC Fashion Show, several theater shows, countless dinner parties, holidays parties, and birthday celebrations.

My faith and spiritual life has grown. I must say that my life experiences  have definitely influenced my relationship with God.  I could not imagine my life without God.

In 2023, I helped to establish a college scholarship award program that my church. It is designed to assist our college students with the costs of their education.  Since the establishment we have made several $500 awards to students who are member of our church. This program brings me great joy as we are able to help others reach their goal.

Unfortunately, but again fortunately I had two medical procedures in 2025. Both have improved my health profile. There are still some things that I need to address during the coming months. Blessed in progress.

Meanwhile, I'm continuing to make plans for a full happy, rich life. I love my family, friends and God.

I hope to be a more active blogger in the coming year.
