How fun to wrap yourself up in rainbow lights...
I can't believe that it's less than 2 weeks until Christmas. I am ready for this day to come and go. I know, I sound grumpy about it. But I am not a big fan of Christmas (well I am not a big fan of the expectations of wonderful gifts and going broke buying tons of crap). But it's fine...I do love to watch my kids faces light up...so I suppose it's worth it.
Anyway, I sit here struggling to write my post (yet again). I am not sure where I am going with this blog at the moment. I still struggle to take photos. I seriously look at my camera and sigh. Nothing creative comes to mind anymore. It sucks actually. But my brain feels fried and I am dog tired. I hope with the new year I get my butt in gear. I will...just now I think I may step away until after Christmas. Too much to do over the next few days and too little time...
Wishing you all love and light during the holidaze!

Hey you Egyptian Queen looking sharp in those lites. Great job, have all the fun in the world and be happy and jolly with the family.

Wishing much light to you as well...and here is to a bright new year...with room for fresh ideas, new growth and plentiful opportunities. xo
Sounds like you need to rest, rejuvenate, "recharge the batteries" and "refill the well" -- whatever metaphor works! No one can be creative all the time. I hope you have a stress-free Xmas with lots of lit-up faces.
Love and Light to you!
Like the colored lights in the photo, keep playing and the creative spirit will return. Happy taking a break and celebrating with family.
What a great photograph this is!
I think many of us are feeling much the same way now. So much to do, so much you want to do, and so little time.
I wish you and your family a most wonderful holiday, Caroline!
xo.
This is a great picture. Clever you! As for this time of year, I really feel sad about the commercialization and the stuff-ism that has become synonymous with Christmas. People should make memories, not garbage. Do we really need more stuff? And why just pick one day a year to be nice to one another? Why not live life that way?
As for your blog, I love it. It is a place of light and calmness.
Good morning C. Sorry u are feeling so fried. It happens to the best of us. Your mojo will return-just let this process happen.
That photo is way cool! I've said it before...I'm in the same frame of mind. This holiday stuff just does not do it for me. I struggled to put up a tree this year (in fact, got a new easy one) but it will come down before the New Year and then it's time to start fresh. I may even wash windows...just kidding! Also seriously thinking of changing my blog format...there's so much 'life stuff' going on, I too often have trouble finding my creative writing gene (assuming I even have one). Hang tough...we will get there!
Love this photo. :)
And I'm totally with you. Usually I'd like Christmas to last forever, but this year I'm over it. Maybe it's because I gift-bought til I was broke, or because I'm away from home. Or because I'm going on a trip on the 26th.
But I agree...can't it be over already? ;)
Ha! That's just the cutest!
I love the 'tree'. *grin* I haven't been very present on my blog lately either. It's a busy season, my house is in disarray because of some work that's being done on it and I haven't had any flashes of inspiration.
you are not being grumpy..you are being realistic! all these gifts to buy..yikes!

I feel the same way about the crazy spending and shopping that's associated with Christmas. It just seems a little ... strange ... when you sit back and watch people rushing all over the place.
I'm still trying to think of a good word for 2013. I haven't put as much effort into my words in the past couple of years. This year, I'm hoping, will be different.
