it is my normal pattern to look out the bedroom window when I get up to check the weather and see if the snow has melted, or more has fallen, or whether the sun is shining, lol…

this morning I was surprised when I looked out and spotted Indi… she is home for a few days so that we have transportation while the guest is still here and because of all the snow there wasn’t room to go into the garage…

there were also treats… I received this lovely Monet bookmark from Paris which matches the sweet tray I was given the other day;-)… I put it right into the book I was reading…

and a bit later in the day this ice cream cone arrived… yum, haven’t had one since my booster shot…

we ended the day working on the puzzle I ordered quite some time ago – which I hadn’t been able to connect the edge pieces, so I had packed it up and put it away in disgust…

in about an hour the border was done… hmmm, what a difference a little help makes;-)…

every minute has been delightful…

last year I made bookmarks using pictures I took at Chihuly Garden and Glass when we were in Seattle following our Alaskan cruise… the other side was the word gratitude with the names of things and people for which/whom I am thankful…

many of my colleagues still have it up in their offices… felt I needed to do something equally as nice this year, lol…

finally came up with the idea of note cards using some of my photographs…

spent a lovely time looking through pictures I’ve taken in 2014 and picked about thirty… used Publisher to produce 15 pages with two pictures on each…

went to my buddies at Staples and they printed, cut and scored them… picked up envelopes and folded and stuffed them…

put five together and wrapped them with ribbon… then I put nice labels on them and they were all done…

when I gathered them up into the groups of five, I think I managed to make each group different… quite the feat…

everyone liked them so I am happy… it is such fun to make something for others… particularly with help from technology…
