That is so sweet! Thanks Simone! I have to agree, the support of the HYC has been amazing. This is also the first year in more than a decade that I weigh less at the end than at the beginning!
Have a great December!
Here's a new site I'm thankful for: Artfire.com it's an awesome new arts and crafts site with some amazing handmade items listed. Check it out! It's a good feeling to shop for the holidays online and from unique crafty folks, too.
I was busy catching up on blogs when I came across this post. Glad to know that I am an inspiration to you. And I can say the same about you especially now that you are so far away from home ... you do so much in Ireland and keep busy just as if you were back home ... more then I would have been able too.
Happy Holidays, Simone!!!
