Today, I teased her with our 78º weather report. Needless to say, she is rather excited about coming to live here.BeadyEyedWomen@blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11447190663612040939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256692417661824839.post-4896366937365074602011-12-28T19:54:18.378-08:002011-12-28T19:54:18.378-08:00Char, it is good to know the box of treasures went...Char, it is good to know the box of treasures went to someone who will love them and make wonderful creations!

We are definitely down-sizing even more next year, especially now that postage is going up again and all our family lives in the lower 48, so postage is a biggie for us each year. I hope you got my email about the blog-hop prize...Wow! I love everything you sent. It will all be put to good use. I especially love the Sonoran Sunrise Cabachon, I have been looking for one since seeing one on Heidi Kumalie's web site. (I apologize for mis-spelling her last name if I did). I love her work also. Have a wonderful New Year Jeanette, I enjoy your blog. Thanks again for the prize package. I will post a picture when I use some of the great treasures you sent.charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05798953048003392664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256692417661824839.post-49362236868406249862011-12-28T14:35:42.032-08:002011-12-28T14:35:42.032-08:00I love this George Carlin piece, and it's been...I love this George Carlin piece, and it's been a while since I heard it. I always think of houses like that, piles of STUFF with lids on top. I put it on my blog as well.<br /><br />I'm excited to meet your roommate!

He has a rant on airlines that I recite to myself whenever I travel. :)<br /><br />I admire your approach to gift giving, and I also admire your downsizing! When I get home, I might have to simplify a little. <br /><br />Also, you're spot-on about 2012. I remember when the world was supposed to end in 2000!Sarah Sequinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08221653054315631804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256692417661824839.post-23829211131990230202011-12-28T08:21:11.457-08:002011-12-28T08:21:11.457-08:00your post is an inspiration..this year i've he...your post is an inspiration..this year i've heard so many of my friends comment on a <br />dislike(?)of the Holiday over doing,kids get too much,people are stressed,finances are tight, their desire to down size and simplify is loudly voiced..i keep wondering if the real reason for Christmas is getting lost in the<br /> "I Wants"..it would be nice to see more energy put into charitable things and less shopping.<br />maybe that's a conflict since I produce things to buy..but giving handmade and forego the Mall next year would be nice ..your gift giving solutions were perfect.Spirited Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05177223122928766532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256692417661824839.post-28855690989417590252011-12-28T07:55:34.249-08:002011-12-28T07:55:34.249-08:00it is so nice to create clean new spaces and get r...it is so nice to create clean new spaces and get rid of stuff that holds us back.
