December Reflections - 2019

So there are days when I have lots of time and days when I have none.  While I love the freedom that working from home has given me all these years, I think it's time I try to figure out some sort of routine.  That's one of my goals for next year.  I'll be making my vision cards soon so I'm gathering bits and pieces to do that.  Blog post about that coming. 

For now, we have a few days of the Reflections that I have only posted on Instagram and I'll share them here. 

Day 10 - Gold  - Some little ornaments I have hanging in the studio. 

Day 11 - 10 years ago.  This showed up in my newsfeed for that day.  I don't remember anything specific that happened on December 11 but I do know that 10 years ago is when my husband hurt his back at work and our lives have not been the same since. 





Day 12 - Made me laugh. - interestingly, I have nothing for this.  Do I not laugh enough? 

Day 13 - 5 things about me.

I always find it hard to think about different things about myself.  For this I said:  1)   I have 3 sisters and all of our names start with the letter "J."   2)   I've been to Alaska and seen the "North Pole."   3)   I love Koala bears but owls are starting to capture my attention.   4)   I've lived in 7 places but they are all within a 5 mile radius of each other.    5)  I love blackberry or boysenberry pie better than chocolate. 

If you are really interested, you can see five more things about me here.








Day 14 - Floral - Have to admit, I just added this one today!  One of the pictures I colored earlier this year. 









Day 15 - Best decision of 2019.  Deciding to try different types of transcription instead of just medical.  It has been interesting and will be of financial help as well.  Never too late to teach an old dog...

Day 16 - Hot  - Struggling with this one as it is definitely NOT hot here but "cold" is coming up later in the month so I guess I'll use these:

And that time we had an explosion:

I may come up with something else for hot later in the day but I wanna get this out for now.  How's your December going? 

August Break - 2019 - 5 Things About Me

I've done posts about myself before so I'm trying to think of new things, or at least a new way of looking at them.  Working from the top left down: 

1) I am a hopeless romantic and believe in knights in shining armor, BUT, I also believe that I can be Queen and not just a princess waiting for rescue.

2)  I've had the "Bill Loves Jan" sign for over 30 years and it sticks on the dashboard of all my cars.

3) We went on a helicopter ride and had a picnic overlooking the Grand Canyon for our anniversary a few years ago.  We stayed in the Excalibur Hotel which looks like a castle (see #1).

4)  I am a creator and absolutely love working in my new backyard studio.

5) I am a Pisces and I love the ocean.  I don't get there as much as I'd like and that has to change. 

For last year's list you can look here.   Lots of links in this one to keep you entertained.  I'd love to hear 5 things about you!
