I hope everyone's start to the New Year has been a good one. Mine's been a mix. THRILLED to have my adult son here for a visit. We extended Christmas (or observed the Orthodox calendar!) and have enjoyed time together as a family. On the down side, my Mom suffered a minor stroke a couple of days before he arrived. Overall, the prognosis is good and the only damage is some weakness in her left hand. Waiting for her to be discharged to a PT Rehab facility for a short stay, and then she'll get to go home which she is very eager to do.
Not gonna lie, I'm tired and haven't worked on anything for the New Year besides starting a serious clean of my craft room!
Times like this are when I appreciate seeing others' creativity at my weekly party so let's do that!
My French Twist has embarked on one of my loves, jewelry making. Check out her tutorial for Beginner Jewelry Making here and see how she made these lovely earrings. No time like the New Year to start a new hobby, right?

Thanks to all who linked up and can't wait to see what you have to share this week!

Oh, Carol, I'm so sorry to hear about your mom suffering a minor stroke. I hope that she is doing well now. I am sure she is eager to come home. I pray she continues to get well and her recovery goes smoothly. As always, thank you for hosting. Take care.
Thank you for featuring my Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies! and thanks for another year of bringing us yummy chocolate treats and sharing a slice of your life with us! Hope your mom is well soon. My neurologist thinks I also had a "mini stroke", but it was just episodic loss of my left side for 1/2 hour intervals which lasted about 3 days (and I'm fine now) ~ but I've had every kind of MRI/MRA/Cat and whatever other scan there is (which also led to me seeing a cardiologist too). I feel so good that I'm guilty about taking up time from other patients b/c I can't believe it's me they're talking about! (never had anything like this before) Catch y'all again next week.
