5 things that make me happy.......

1. starting a new hobby that the whole family wants to get involved in....
creating walking sticks....
can't wait to get started now that we have the proper tools...
carving, woodburning, painting and staining...
so many ideas...




2. an abundant harvest from my small little raised garden....
 gathering what we have grown....





 3. Canning and pickling and making jelly and salsa with  our own vegetables....





next year I will get more creative with my labels...

4.Walking with my son on the dike around our town....







and searching for bees...



5.photographing old and  new rocks for my etsy shop.... I plan to add them little by little this week and next...

  4. What a paradise! So beautiful … the water and scenery. Walking sticks are fascinating. I have several that my dh got in Europe. In fact in his last week on earth, he hardly let go of his walking cane,
