Happy New Year ~

 
I hope you have the perfect New Year's Eve planned.  I know I do.  It's sitting home with my sweetie, a roaring fire and watching a movie or two.  Hopefully I'll get a little hooking done, too.  Drink a little wine.  And I can't forget the dogs :)  Besides Loocie and Ellie, I have my granddog Maya here.  If you think a Jack Russell is high strung, spend a little time with a Chihuahua.  She just doesn't stop moving.  Funny, between the three dogs, they barely weigh 30 pounds.
 


I'm working on heart #4 since I still have not decided on my next real hooking project.  I took Friday off as a vacation day, so hopefully over the course of the next four days, I will get a rug started.


I usually don't make New Year's resolutions, but this year I have two.  The first is to lose the pounds I've put on this holiday season . . . sigh.  I really need to rid my house of all the goodies.  If it's here, I will eat it.  Secondly, I need to purge.  Not my fun stuff or antiques, of course no wool, books or crafty items, but clothes that I haven't worn in years, many things that I have no use for.  I'm not a hoarder, but I just have too many things that I have because I haven't the heart to get rid of them.  Oh, I come by this justly.  My  mom NEVER go rid of anything.
 
Well, dear friends, I hope you have a wonderful evening doing what you love most.  I wish you health,  happiness and prosperity in 2015.
 
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)
Lauren

    Oh woman I know what you mean about clothes you haven't worn for years. For a couple weeks I was good to pull one or two things off a shelf or off the hanger and made a couple runs to the thrift shop. That was before Christmas. So now must get back in gear and rid myself of this $#!^.

    I hate purging clothes since i only buy what I need, but I do have some from the 80's, lol. They are my favorite things and you can't get things like that anymore;) Happy New Year to you and your family.

    I know what you mean about keeping clothes. I have a closet full that I just can't bring myself to get rid of. It's that what if factor. If I loose weight. If I become 10 years younger all of a sudden. Ha!
    Have a nice evening with your honey!
    Happy New Year!

    I hope you have a lovely New Year. I need to do all of those same things. Especially this morning getting into my jeans.
    I hope you get lots of hooking done. I always enjoy your projects. The dogs are cute.
    Happy New Year to you.

    You are not considering getting rid of ALL of the old things hanging around, are you?
