Is it too early for spring fever? I am dreaming about a garden. No thought of the VERY small container garden I had last year and was totally tired of it at the end. I dream of flowers and fresh salads and dinner party's. Right. I think in 18 years of marriage I have had people over for dinner maybe three times. I see my house as I wish it were. I have no idea how to pull that off. Well, all a girl can do is dream of spring and flowers and fresh salads and a perfect day.
Still am working on a Christmas present. I will remind myself this year that Christmas knitting starts now. No excuses, no putting it off. I am finding with the one I am trying to finish, that I love the elaborate. The exquisitly beautiful. No one wants an ugly acrylic anything. I like wool, blended with silks, angoras, cashmere. They are a pleasure to knit with and to watch fabric created before your eyes, oozing from your own hands is well, the best gift.
I have decided that 2010 is the year of creation. I can feel this wave of creativity swelling in me, in the air around me. I just have to figure out how to get on that wave. Ride it, believe in myself, follow through. No idea is stupid. Try that phrase on for size! I need to create for the sake of creation, not for outcome. I want art I can wrap my hands around.
This is going to be a good year.

I love how inspired you are. I need to use you as an example for myself. I need to be better about creating and doing things even if they don't turn out. Right now I'm thinking of doing this with bread. I love baking so much and it's something I never feel I get to do enough or that I've never had enough time to do. Now all I have is time. So I'm going to use your outlook and just try and create no matter the outcome. Love it and love how uplifting your post was!
