~ a gift ~

 hello friends ~
this time of year, we as women, 
... tend to lose ourselves....
we are busy preparing for holiday celebrations ~ family gatherings, baking, decorating, 
and last-minute-preparations.... 
SOMETIMES, 
we give so much of ourselves, 
that we forget who we are 
& what we, ourselves, love to do.

I am guilty of this, as I know
some of you are too.

Please don't lose yourselves in the hustle-bustle of the moment.
{{yes, it's a wonderful time of year ~}}
... do what you will to make the family & your friends happy,
but please don't forget about YOU!

...relax a bit, unwind...have that glass of Merlot,
or eggnog...a slice of indulgent chocolate lava-cake....
but!
remember your love of needlework, 
 ~ and the absolute joy it brings you! 
those quiet moments....in that coziest-chair.
with that movie playing or the notes of a symphony echoing....
ahhhhh .....
yes....YOU!

and it with these thoughts, Peter & I bring to you,
yet another 13 days that you may wish to TREAT YOURSELF!


....with our LAST HOLIDAY SALE of the SEASON ~

Please visit our ETSY SHOP,
and, upon your final checkout,

Oh yes, Lori.... at my age it is my love of hooking which keeps me entertained and happy. Oh, and I sure do enjoy a glass of Pinot Noir, Cab or other reds as well.

You are so right about Mom's and Christmas to do lists. I just want to say how much of a refuge your blog has been to me upon discovering it this year. All of your friendly and welcoming posts, beautiful photos and thoughtful ideas shared have been a wonderful blessing! Wishing you and Peter and beautiful Christmas and a Peace filled New Year! It is onward and upward to new adventures in 2017 at Notforgotten Farm!
