It was great to take a much needed break to spend with my family for the Holidays! I think sometimes we can get so wrapped up in social media that we forget to stop and take time for those that are around you. I don't know if I actually set New Years goals so to speak but I am going to try and be present more in own life and limit how much time I scroll FB. Oh I will be still scrolling just limiting myself. It's really hard when you have so many art friends and you enjoy seeing all they are creating and I love seeing pictures of friends and family. It's so easy to get caught up in the social media part that we forget to stop and smell the roses. I really need to be more present.
Over the Holidays my two grand daughters were both in the hospital with the nasty virus that was going around. I also ended up taking my husband to the hospital with other health issues. It was quite the end to the year. I want to be present for those that I love, so when hubby is home my goal is to set the phone aside haha! I said I will try! I am very goal oriented and very much a worker so sometimes its hard for me to just relax. I am going to try! Most of you know I try and answer messages ASAP or immediately that is still my goal but I will now do so between normal working hours. I'm telling myself its ok if I get a message in the evening during dinner I can return the message the next normal working hour day. It's OK not to work Sundays.
Another goal you will notice is that I am branching out to travel teach a little more. My 2018 travel schedule is already full and I am already getting inquiries for 2019-2020 so if your group wants to inquire please send me a message. I am still limiting how many travels I do as I do still teach here at my home studio.

Just having a little fun with my youngest grand daughter on snap chat.
Every Year my grandchildren take a pic with this Santa at a Hotel they stay at on their journey to PA.
I had a few Christmas Pictures I was going to share but they vanished from my phone. I think it's time for a new phone.
I started these two projects before they family arrived for the holidays and thought I would share . I had so many positive comments on the bunny angel with the chick that I created "Queen Of Hearts" I will be listing this item for sale in the etsy shop as soon as I get the chance as the family just left this morning and I need to get back into the groove.
"Some Bunny Loves You" is a cute valentine ornament I will also be listing in the etsy shop this week so keep watch.
For all those that inquired about classes for the New Year I am still waiting on a few to pick their projects for travel teaching and then I will begin listing classes for here at the OldeMoonlane Studio. I usually don't begin classes until March/April as PA weather can still be wintry and snowy especially Jan and Feb. I use those months as planning months and the dreaded tax gathering and book keeping months aggghhhh!!
Have a great day and don't forget to be present and find time to relax with those you love!
