Ahhh a new year

[susandennis]

I'm back at work today but since last week was so quiet, I'm pretty much all caught up. All of my next steps involve other people and they need to get in, go through their email, remember where the coffee is, swap tales with each other, etc. So it's liable to be after lunch before the action picks up.

TV reruns forced me to get creative in my TV watching for the past couple of weeks and Tivo went a little nuts on HGTV in the void of everything else. I did pick up a new favorite show - Crafters Coast to Coast.

For several years now I've thought that I really want to gut my house and start again. I need new carpet, new furniture and new design. And I can't do it on my own. I need a professional. And I have no clue how to find one. I don't even know where to start. I did apply to be on Designers' Challenge. Maybe they will find me a designer.

It's turned fairly chilly here and I do have to stop and remember that too cold is WAY better than too hot. It really is. And, too cold has its rewards. This is the forecast from the Seattle Times this morning. Hoping, hoping, hoping
