Happy New Year!

I meant to post yesterday, but spent most of the day in bed. Something I ate or drank on New Year's eve didn't agree with me and I was quite sick yesterday. But I am feeling much better now (after John and Jack brought me breakfast in bed this morning - that always makes me feel better about things).

I created some simple 'Thank You' cards this morning to send out for the Christmas gifts we received this year from friends. I used the "Out on a Limb" set from Papertrey Ink (AGAIN!). I have been using this set on EVERYTHING this season, but it is one of my absolute favorites and it just works for everything!

These cards are all written in, sealed in envelopes, stamped and addressed, and waiting to be picked up. I'm glad to have that done. I don't like to wait too long after Christmas to send my thank you cards.

There are two very important "to do" items on my list today - take down the Christmas decorations and LAUNDRY. Ugh. Neither of the two are sounding very appealing right now. I love having the Christmas decorations up and it makes me sad when they come down and the house looks so empty. And laundry - well, it's one of my least favorite things to do (besides scrubbing toilets!)

Whoever's reading - I hope you enjoyed a fun-filled New Year's celebration. Here's to health and happiness (and craftiness!) in 2009!
