Oh Where Oh Where . . .

You must be saying this by now because I know I usually keep a fairly regular posting schedule. I do not usually get too personal on this blog as I like it to be chalk full of inspiration and more home/entertaining ideas, BUT I know we have lots of new followers and want to make sure you all know I am still here!

This has been a somewhat long week as I am up North taking care of my mom for a month who had major surgery on Monday. We are hoping this is the end of her cancer battle and she can start the new year on a brighter note. It has been long days at the hospital and I have been more consumed being a drill Sargent to get her to walk than posting beautiful inspiration for the holidays. Trust me I (and I know she) would rather me be doing the later. I miss my little girl and hubby but I think they are having fun without me!! Have you all heard about the wind destruction that happened over the last 2 days in Pasadena, California?? Yep, thats what they are dealing with. I hope I dont come back to too destroyed of a yard.

So with ALL that said I have some news that shall make you and I excited for the weeks to come around here. Starting next Monday we are having some fabulous visitors each day ;with a few holiday crafting/entertaining ideas by me and a NEW holiday collection to share. I am SO excited for the ladies who are participating in this month long shall we say party!! I am honored by each ones presence and adore each lady to bits and pieces. I was thinking of giving you a run down of who each of them are but I think it would be more fun for you to be surprised each day.

So hows that for one of my most wordiest posts ever (I think!)? Hope you all have a fabulous weekend and I will see you back here Monday.
