This year he struck gold with not one, not two but three great gifts. The first was practical - my lovely (oh gosh I miss it) Samsung was faulting so it needed to be replaced, and it was, with the new iPhone 5. Now I confess to having fallen in love with my Apple Mac, and it is my laptop of choice over my HP. But since I use my Mac it made sense to go over to an iPhone because my Samsung didn't talk to my Mac. While he was at it he upgraded a free iPad Mini and gave me that too. Now all my technology should hook up and that will be more productive (forgive me Samsung).
My third gift was low tech, a beautiful veggie garden. It is a u-beaut (Australian for great) kit set job, that went together like a dream. The whole garden is enclosed with insect screens which should eliminate the need to use pesticides, and in the cooler months there are vinyl screens to turn it into a hot house. I've finished moving all my plants from the vertical gardens we made about a month ago, and planted lots of seeds. I think Jim is going to put in a watering system, and so all we will need to do is wait to harvest all the goodies.
We had a lovely Christmas eve with family and friends, and with the shop re-opening today it seems like forever since Christmas Day!
I've got so much to do to prep for classes beginning at the shop in just 2 weeks, and of course the digitising retreat. Time to stop wasting time on Pinterest (gosh isn't it easy to spend hours being inspired?), and get on with samples.
