Welcome to 2022.

It's been crazy weather here and lots of other places so I hope this weeks post finds you safe and well.

The Christmas decorations are down and boxed up again which as much as I love them is always a joy to get it all put away and hopefully a little less each year.

These pictures are of what I have left of my winter bear collection plus a few others and they will stay on the beds upstairs for a few more weeks.  

My office/computer is up here so I like to bring my friends of many years out to join me.  

A few years ago a young family was visiting and the older daughter asked it she could check out the house - she was about 9. Of course and later she appeared and told me I had too may stuffy's  

To my amazement and defense I replied, I used to have More.

Her voice sounded like the the Mother hoping to let go of old stuff.  I also wanted to say You haven't seen my Christmas ones yet. 

It seemed that in past times of my life when I wasn't well or stressed out, seeing the teddies helped bring some comfort and the blankets fit in nicely with them. 

Glad I have spare rooms to decorate.

What are some of your collections? 

PS. I'm working on new posts for this year but somehow the time flies by so fast my few ahead are soon next in line.

Stay safe and warm. 

Looking forward to the days getting longer with the sun. 

Take Care. 

Stuck in the house & too cold and slippery to go out the mind starts to wander.

SO

I got the dish on the left as a gift. It's actually a candle and smells lovely so for FUN I copied it and made the one on the right with yogurt, orange slice, strawberry & a couple of bay leaves.. 

Candle still safe in kitchen window.

 I had the yogurt the next morning for breakfast

 minus the bay leaves.

Here's a post from a couple years ago with beautiful guitar music that I love and hope You will too.  

Today you can Bundle up, relax and let someone else drive.

A short music video for this last week of 2021.

"Sleigh Ride" by Leroy Anderson & His Pops Concert Orchestra

How many words in the Song did You remember?

Love the old pictures and I felt like being in the middle of a Norman Rockwell magazine about even older times. 

We enjoyed a few winter sleigh rides many years ago (but really they were on wagons). It was fun to get out of the house for an activity on a winter night in a park with the kids and then enjoy a campfire.  

It's funny how old memories resurface at Christmas time.

That's it for 2021.

See you soon in 2022.

PS. Thank You for connecting with me through another year.

Happy New Year!!!!

Cheers 🍷 !!
