A few days after my last post we had a warm spell. The snow melted quickly, and it was in the mid 40s to mid 50s for a while. It was strange to see grass again. Today it started snowing, and now it is white and beautiful out. We were not supposed to get an accumulation of the white stuff, but throw a lake into the mix and you never really know what is going to happen. Diana has moved her bedroom upstairs and the shop is taking shape. She has decided to go with her business full time, so her last day at work will be in April. We are working to get a shop/teaching space created and ready to roll by then. It's proving to be a lot of work, but it's gonna look sooooooo nice! Our bathroom is finally finished, as well.

It was ripped up for 5 weeks, and we are still making muppet arms every time we go into the finished space. Having Ugly Bathroom Syndrome sucks! I have decided that this month will be full of crafty goodness and fun. Beth found a great art gift for me. It's a book called "Wreck This Journal" and each page tells you something different you must do to it. I convinced my friend Sandra to get the same one, and we are doing it together and sending the pages to each other. Fun! I have another friend doing a 30 day photo challenge. one picture posted every day of something in the house. Just for fun. It is always fun to see how other view their environment. Not much going on other than that, but I think that is more than enough for the first month of 2013, hmmmm?

Drove along lake Ontario on the way home yesterday, through Henderson Bay so I could snap pictures of the lake frozen over.
