"Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around."  Vanilla Sky - Sophia (Penelope Cruz)

     Well, it's been quite a few months since writing my last post.   My hair has grown waaaay past my shoulders.  Our house is finally finished and we are all moved in.  I've made some new friends and miss my old ones terribly.
     My family has endured several happy and some not so happy milestones.  Where have I been?
     I've been busy - moving into a new house, decorating, sewing, cooking up a storm, and entertaining.  
     I've been gazing at stars and walking in the sun.  
     I've been dancing at the local village Zumba class and relaxing at the yoga class.  
     I've been visiting beaches and listening to birds sing.
     I've been lazy - sitting on Facebook for much too long, stroking my puppies' fur and listening to their hearts beat pure love.  
     I've been sitting on the porch, watching neighborhood kids frolic and listening to cows and sheep.  
     I've been taking naps, lying in the sunlight which shines on the sofa.
All in all, it's been a fantastic few months.
