Happy New Year!

It's here! A new year!

My "to do list" for this year includes ...

taking individual photos of all my dolls, one doll at a time, as an inventory

organizing five years worth of photos a little better, so I can find what I want a little quicker

planning for the future of Art Gallery 21 at the Woman's Club of Wilton Manors

writing a memoir for the AARP contest (due February 15)

deciding when my darling husband and I are going on vacation to Germany

using my sewing machine more often

smiling at strangers every chance I get!

How about YOU?

The sun sets on the first decade of the new century ...

What a year it's been, huh? The plane that landed safely in the river in New York, the death of Michael Jackson, an unsuccessful attempt at terrorism on Christmas Day. These are just a few of the things that made headlines.

On the personal front, my youngest child graduated from college and my granddaughter graduated from high school. Those, my friend, are fine accomplishments for anyone! And, yes, I'm proud of them. Good parenting helped, but they did the work themselves ... my legacy to the world!

Happy New Year to whoever out there reads these posts!
