well ok .. Happy New Year !!!

wishing you and your families a healthy, happy and prosperous new year!

and even though i claimed to be 'over the hump' back in october,

it is only actually this week that i truly am over it ... i just noticed that for the first time in over 10 years i did not write a blog post for over two months ... hard to imagine, but now i am back.

we had a very relaxing new years eve at  home for only the second time in

oh, 37 years?  until last year, we had a yearly ongoing party with the same folks, at the same house.

since 1981. when there were seven pregnant ladies in attendance .. 6 boys in that crop.

starting the new year with a clean slate in my to do book ...  several confirmed projects 

on the list, a new table order today, and some other possibilities likely ...

looks like a good start

i even had some time yesterday for a drawing and a painting ..

'story books' above, and 'fireworks' below 

 2019 here we come ...
