So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work, or family or life. Whatever it is you're scared of doing, do it. Make your mistakes, next year and forever." Neil Gaiman

Catch up weeks
After being gone for such a long time I have mountains of works to catch up. All the gardens are over grown and I wrecked the house (the part I had left clean anyway) when I unloaded the truck! I'm making headway on both the house and the yard. I have begun some outdoor projects that have been on my list forever by buying the first 30 castle bricks to replace the native rock wall in front. I like the wall but I never really had enough stone and it won't stay together anymore so it must be replaced. I have such a slope in that garden that I need another wall as well. Luckily, I won't have to move may plants and they aren't going to be that tall. When that's done I have three or four other projects in the yard before winter. One of the hardest things about being single again is figuring out how I want to live but on the trip I discovered that I was home. Independence and my house will suit for a long time yet. I have plans for the inside as well but they will have to wait a bit. The Monster "to do" list was revised this morning, not sure if it is longer or shorter but it is better organized. As soon as I dig out my sewing room/ office I'll begin sewing again along with the gardens, organizing and de-cluttering, etc. Projects are going to be finished! On that note I'll begin posting cross-stitch updates on Tuesdays, quilt updates on Thursday and Garden post on Saturday. At kick in my pants to keep me working! Well, time to get started on something else--kitchen cleaning.

There is nothing like a trip away to see what needs doing around the house. A list is a good place to start. Problem is, I just keep making lists.....oh well. Ann :-)
