I’m here… somewhere under the piles of red and silver bows, acres of white branches lit by miles of white lights, gilded reindeer and colored balls, poinsettias of every color (peach, come on, what kind of holiday spirit orders peach poinsettias for a local hospital?? someone did..), Christmas cactus, boxwood trees and alberta spruce. I’m somewhere under it all, and the piles are still growing, GROWING. The Christmas stocking is finished. Last I saw it, Sam was stretched out on top of it, napping. Very cute. Too bad, I ran on by on my way to the office, workshop, plantroom… maybe it was the laundry. Don’t give up on me.. I snuck away yesterday and took a great class with Jeannine Bakriges. More on that, later. I’ve got to get to the library for a few more videos, entertainment while tying more bows.

I’m very happy that you sneaked out to Webs. It was such a welcome break from what we normally do. I don’t get to spin in groups all that frequently, and it was restorative.
Glad you got to go! Drooling with envy. Looking forward to what you have to say about it.
While I’m not quite at the point of spinning well enough for a class, I’m feeling a bit envious of your day with freinds and the learning environment. You are so busy creating fun ideas this time of year!
I may not have gone to Webs but I do have spinning at the library tonight. So there’s something. And your decorations are just gorgeous, Judy.
Beautiful decorations!

OK, I’m the one. I have ordered many peach poinsetteas. You see, it was my daughter’s dance instructor’s very favorite. Every year we specially ordered a nice big peach poinsettea from the florist. (Florist had the same reaction, but it made her beloved dance instructor very happy.) Anyway, thanks for the memories!
Can you come decorate my house?? The decorations are beautiful 🙂
I was at a local greenhouse buying bulbs for the spring and saw some gorgeous varieties of poinsettias, deep reds, wines, pinks, and burgandy, but no peach. Lovely decorations
Hang in there – ya know…Christmas comes but once a year. It’ll soon be over and you can get back to the project(s) at hand. I’m sure Sam and Bu are keeping a good eye on things for you while you are so busy.
Is that your HOUSE?
So fun to see you yesterday. My husband loved the plant — it’s on our dining room table and looks lovely. Aren’t those decorations gorgeous!
Can’t think of a better place to be this time of year than around all those wonderful decorations! What fun! They are beautiful!
Wow! Gorgeous!
Can’t wait to read what you and Laurie have to say about the spinning class! Here’s a link to her blog http://spinningspiderjenny.blogspot.com/index.html
There are peach poinsettias?… Somehow that just seems wrong.
How festive!
