Happy New Year!!!

I’m finding it hard to believe that today is the beginning of not just a new month but also, a new year! When did 2024 go? Where? As I look around my office/craft studio, everything looks the same ~ even the December calendars that are still on the wall. Guess I need to do something about that.

This has been a very quiet day; no doubt, people are still recuperating from last night’s festivities…I’d planned to watch the ball drop from NYC and promptly slept through that! C’est la vie. Imagine my surprise this AM when I logged onto my iPhone and found a text message from a long-time-ago – I’m talking easily 50 years – old boyfriend. We had not kept in touch.

Apparently though, t’was much easier than my finding a couple books I’d been reading last night! Somehow they disappeared this morning. I’d searched high and low, several times, to no avail. Really could not figure out where the books were? A real puzzle…

As I started to go downstairs, I turned around and looked at the bed… Was that a hump I eyed under the spread? Hmmm. I walked over to the bed that I’d made up earlier, ran my hand across the section of the bedspread that looked a tad suspect and , Lo and Behold, YES! There were my books, under the spread, patiently waiting for me to discover and retrieve them. I personally think t’was the Time Thieves who’d discovered the error of their ways.

Whatever, I had my books and a story for today’s blog post. Which brings me to my 2025 One Little Word : JOURNAL!

Yes, JOURNAL was also my word a while back…I don’t know exactly when the first time was …I need to research that. But, JOURNAL seems fitting for 2025 – especially since I’m kicking off the year/month with Junk Journal January 2025 and I’ve several other journaling projects underway/or being formulated.

Who knows what other surprises are in store for 2025?

Wishing you your best year ever!

Cheers~

  1. Happy new year, Honoré! I had to laugh at the line at you being easier to find after 50 years than those books! Journal is a great word, and I can’t wait to see what you’ve been doing with all those bits and pieces so far.

  3. Well this post made me smile a BIG SMILE! I’m intrigued about that How to Winter book … I’m pretending it’s still Christmas (as in I have NO plans right now to take down my tree) and that’s very helpful 😉 Your 2025 word sounds like a good one – onward!
