This last day of 2023 I find myself reflecting on the year past. Scrapbook retreats in January, February, March, June, and September. Stampin’ Retreat in September. Easter in Bonaire, GA with my youngest daughter; Mother’s Day in San Diego with 2 of my daughters; Girls Trip to Carlsbad in July (with time to visit my daughter in San Diego); 2 weeks in Colorado in August (time with my oldest daughter); September trip to celebrate my daughter’s birthday in San Diego; day trip to Albuquerque to experience the eclipse in October; 3 week trip and cruise to Europe end of October-early November; to Christmas here at home with all three of my daughters. I look through all of my photos and realize just how very blessed I am. I hope you find yourself reflecting on your year and taking hold of all the positive memories and thanking God for your blessings. Like last year I will start my year with 21 Days of Prayer, Reflection, and Fasting. It gave me so much peace doing it last year and it helped ground me. If anyone is interested in joining me, it starts on January 8th.
Tonight I will bring in the new year the way I have probably for the last 45 years of my life. I’ll be wearing white (white symbolizes starting the year with a “clean slate”); I will do the 10 second countdown standing on my right foot )to enter the new year on “the Right Foot”) and immediately enjoying 12 green grapes for prosperity in the 12 months of the new year. A tradition I learned in Brasil as a young adult and continue until now. Obviously I can’t forget to kiss the man I love at midnight.
I hope the no matter how you say good-bye to this year and how you bring in the new year, I hope that 2024 will be filled with good health and happiness.
THANK YOU for your continued support over the last 5 years. I hope you will continue to enjoy creating cards with me and sharing your cards with loved ones. If you haven’t been able to join me for a workshop, maybe this is the year to give it a shot.
May God bless. You and your family in 2024!
