Little gifts.

We get them everyday. Little gifts that just make things better. Could be a couple little kisses from Simon when he comes home from school, a call from overseas that we are good on all the product for classes in the Netherlands, a friend helping me out with some mailings, a snickerdoodle snuck from the cabinet above the fridge, a call from my awesome editor and a conversation about the book, or a peek around the corner to see Chris and Simon snuggling together on one of our big red chairs this morning.

Today, the little gifts I received were pretty easy to see. Somedays it can be a bit more challenging.

But they are always there...

Starting to get really excited for this trip. Even looking around here and seeing the chaos of moving is not phasing me too much - LOL - in my old age I am getting better at "going with the flow" - as people who have taken classes from me before know - it really is one of my life mantras. And, "it is OK." And, as you can see on the sign below, "Be organic." It is pretty much all about keeping it in perspective.

Thanks for the photo Jennifer. And for coming to my class. And for having such a cool scarf that I totally wanted to bring home...man, meeting people is the best.

And one more shot for the day...the beginnings of my new studio space. It is off the kitchen in a family/great room area. Lovely light. On the other side of my computer desk will be my other metal shelf unit. And my table will go in the middle of the room. Should be interesting seeing how I can get all my stuff in here.

That will have to wait a couple weeks...
