It's Been a Quiet Week

I honestly don't know where this week went!

I have been practicing slowing down

Simplifying my walk in life

this week has been extremely good.

Staying home working on some

artistic projects

Time in my studio painting journal pages

Not much television

(what a time waster!)

I must admit I did watch the 

season finale of

Parenthood

(OH how I love that show!)

I am becoming more and more

of a home body

love to go from my knitting,

to doing a little laundry, 

to perhaps writing a new poem,

having a cup of tea,

taking a nap,

whatever,

just being home makes me happy.

I was able to finish those two socks

for my daughter n laws

I wrote about 

and I am just beginning a new

knitted Caplet design

just for me!

There is something wonderful about

beginning a new knitting project!

Casting on those first stitches is fun.

My sister and I went to my local knit shop last weekend

and I got some beautiful new yarn for this pattern.

I found this designer on Etsy

This is what I am starting:

We are expecting a snow storm today

here in Virginia Beach!

So it looks as though I am in for my weekend,

I am not complaining!

Of course Sunday night will be

episode number four of

Downton Abbey!

Find time to be still

Find time to be creative

Find time to listen to really good music

Practice some self care

Most of all find time 

to slow your beautiful self

D O W N!
