Goodbye 2017!

    Thank you notes have been written, laundry is being done, a hearty lentil soup is in the crock pot, and the Bills game is soon to begin.  We are looking forward to a quiet evening  by the fireplace on this chilly night to ring in 2018.

     Tomorrow, with the start of the new year, I plan to begin getting my sewing space set up.   If I can even get the sewing machine moved, I can then get cracking on the 'On Ringo Lake' clues that have been piling up daily!  

      Best wishes to all visiting this site for a healthy and happy and peaceful 2018! 

Take care,

Gretchen 

And this concludes the 31 Day Blog Writing Challenge!  29 of 31 days done!  Whew!

Day 30 of the 31 Day Challenge

     A quiet Saturday - the kids are safely back to their homes, and the clean up begins.  One more party tonight with good friends, and then on to the New Year.  In the meantime, I am enjoying the white lilies which just opened, and the white ice forming on Lake Erie.  

Stay warm and take care,
Gretchen
