So here's the rest of this year...as it winds down tonight.
Any big plans?
Not us...I am just happy the antibiotics have kicked in and my head isn't as blocked as it was- but I will complain for half a second- what a way to spend my vacation-grrr.
I will feel great Wednesday when it is time to go back to work, won't I? But I will admit, I am glad I was off and that I could rest and relax and not have to go to work or call in sick.
I do love having this in between the holiday week off-it is one vacation I give myself time to be a slug.

2012 was a very very good year for me.
I found a lot of inner peace and joy and I must say
I am at a good place with this year.
And I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to all of you who stopped by and took time to read my blog this past year.
I really appreciate it .
and now Have Happy New Year!
Tomorrow it is 2013.
Need to get used to that when I write the date.
I hope your New Year is fantastic
and fabulous,
full of good health,
rich with lots of love and friendship,
empty of stress and worries,
that you have lots of fun and laughs
and lots of smiles and joy,
lots of great ideas and ambitions,
lots of fantastic journeys and adventures,
lots of hugs and kisses
very few waves and wind but lots of sunshine and star-shine,
and also
lots of good art and creativity.
And I hope happiness fills your heart.
Happy New Year every one.
