Happy Belated New Year!!! Sure hope everyone behaved themselves on New Years Eve....LOL!!! Once again I was in bed just after my Family & I watched the Countdown on T.V. I must be gettin' old (NOT!!!...I just don't like the feelin' of being hungover the next day) So my Husband & I started to do some painting in the house,our Christmas Present to each other was paint & primer....some maybe thinkin' what kind of gift is that (work) but we don't need anything else besides having all our bills payed off that would be our 1st choice but we haven't Won the Lottery yet!!! We started with the Entry way,needs another coat.Then my parents gave us Gift Cards to Home Hardware & Home Depot,so we started on our Ugly Bathroom....it's lookin pretty good Honey : ) : ) !!!  I'll post pic's later....(the new years pic is from the web) TTYS XO DeeDee

Letting Go!!!

To "let go" does not mean to stop caring, it means I can't do it for someone else.
To "let go" is not to cut myself off, it's the realization I can't control another.
To "let go" is not to enable, but to allow learning from natural consequences.
To "let go" is to admit powerless, which means the outcome is not in my hands.
To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another, it's to make the most of myself.
To "let go" is not to care for, but to care about.
To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being.
To "let go" is not to be in the middle arrranging all the outcomes, but to allow others to affect their own destinies.
To "let go" is not to be protective, it's to permit another to face reality.
To "let go" is not to deny, but to accept.
To "let go" is not to nag, scold or argue, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.
To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires but to take each day as it comes, and cherish myself in it.
To "let go" is not to regret the past, but to grow and live for the future.
To "let go" is to fear less and love more.

This is what I woke up to this morning.....A Winter Wonderland!!!! As a child the first snow fall of the year my Dad would play Dean Martin's "Let It Snow"....To this day my family plays it over the phone as my sister,myself and our parents don't live in the same town anymore,we get "A Sense Of Comfort" when we hear the song playing over the phone just like when we lived at home.It puts a Smile and a Tear in my eye when ever I hear it!!! Thank You Dad for this Family Tradition!!!! XOXO DeeDee

 I've never tried Mixed Media Art before (mind you i never understood it,i've looked at so many different styles from different artists).So this what I came up with...What do you think? It took me a while to get into it and I'm still not sure if it is finished or if it looks good enough,I'm my worst own critic.I ask my Family what they think and they all like my work(actually the bottom one my daughter asked if she could have it for her room)So I guess my work isn't that bad..I have so many ideas going around in my head of different art ideas I want to try, there just isn't enough time during the day.I have quite a few pieces on the go (from painting on pillows,jewlery,ornaments,purses)I better get them finished before I start on something new.So I best be going to my Happy Place (my craftroom) It gives me " A Sense Of Comfort" to work with my hands.....XOXO DeeDee
