Happy New Year!


Joyful New Year greetings to all of my wonderful blog visitors!  Thank you very much for your encouragement all throughout 2013, especially during the times when I've found it challenging to return your visits.


This first What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday post finds my desk in need of a cleanup.  There is a wonderful pile of magazines that I won from Jean of Bluebirds Living in the Meadow long ago.  I had it sent to my brother in law in the US so he could send it to me and it arrived just before Christmas.  A wonderful surprise since I had forgotten all about it!  Lots of inspiration for the new year!


Another surprise, our cat, Truffles, who the vet said was having a false pregnancy (They even took an x-ray and said there were no kittens), gave birth to three kittens!  


Ah, life is full of surprises and we know not what the future holds!


But I know who holds my future and I can trust in Him! Sharing this also in Word Art Wednesday and Inspire Me Monday!  Have a blessed new year, dear blog friends!

  7. The kittens are gorgeous, as are the magazines. I used to work in a craft shop in America and I do miss all the Somerset mags. I hope you enjoy them.

  15. Happy New Year Peggy. Your kitten surprise just goes to show that technology doesn't know everything!I'm sure all those magazines will provide a wealth of inspiration. I do love the variety of American magazines for that, we have so few 'good' stamping mags over here. Have a great Wednesday, Hugs, Shaz #32 xx

  17. OOOH, I love magazines! I would spend my last cent on one.
    Our dog had 5 puppies after the vet said it was a phantom pregnancy! Just goes to show, they don't know everything.
    Happy New Year and a happy WOYWW to you.
