Thanks So Much for Being Such Lovely Friends
I wanted to take a minute to wish all of you, my dear Bloggy Friends, a happy, healthy and blessed New Year! Thanks so much for all your visits to Bella Vista and a special thanks to those who take the time to leave comments….I know this is especially difficult when we all have so many demands on our time. It is appreciated!
So many of you have become dear to me….I feel as though I know you and that is the very best part of blogging.
Forgive me for not being around much these days….I am just knee-deep in work and projects. My husband received (from me….Mrs. Santa….shhhhhh) the large cherry executive desk he has wanted for his study for a long time. We had the guest bed in his study and it had to go, so that meant reworking the den into the new guest room. Now, we will watch telly in the family room….which is too large for my liking to watch television…..so I am working on making it cozy…..a BIG job. Are you confused yet? Haha.
Also making changes (big and small) in every other room in our cottage (even the sun porch) except the kitchen and the bathrooms…..I am bone weary but so happy with all the new changes…..feels like a new house. :-)
May 2012 be all you want it to be.

happy New year Bar.with my best wishes from İstanbul
ReplyDeleteI love doing things like that and have a few plans of my own in the new year. Time will only tell if those plans materialize or not. My office/craftroom/catch all room needs some big time help. I'm sure those busy moments of yours will be happy times too as you create some special places there at your house. It will be looking very new there for your New Year! Thank you too for sharing your special moments with us. My very best of wishes to you for a HAPPY New Year!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the changes you've made in your home, Barb. Your posts are always so lovely. I'm so happy I found your blog.

Hello Barb
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you're making many changes all at once which would be tiring. However, once done you can sit back and enjoy the rooms.
Happy New Year.

Happy New Year to you, too. I can't wait to see all the redos! Lots to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteBarb, I can't wait to see all your changes!! I have been changing things out as well. Not like you have been, just the small decorative stuff.
ReplyDeleteHappy 2012 to you, Barb! May the new year bless you with many wonderful things!

Barb,
ReplyDeleteYou need to find a cozy spot to rest your weary bones, dear one! Re~arranging is a HUGE job for me these days...I'm getting where I don't change things out as often as I use to! I adore your blog! I treasure your friendship! Have a Happy New year, dear friend! See you, again, in 2012!
Fondly,
Pat
Hi Barb,
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I've left a comment...but I visit here at your blog often.
Happy New Year!
hugs,
Cindy
You have my head spinning and my back aching! You have been busy. Hope this New Year is all you dreamed of. Patty
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you dear Barb! I always enjoy spending time with you in your gorgeous home! Have a blessed day and rest a little when you get a chance:) HUGS!
ReplyDeleteHappy New year to you, too! I think we are all busy with our lives...and that's what makes our blogs interesting! And what glorious weather we've had so far! ENJOY! ♥
ReplyDeleteHappy-happy New year! *woot-woot*
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Barb!
ReplyDeleteWow - sounds like a lot of changes underway! Good for you! How did your new kitchen work out? I can't wait to see the before and after pictures!
Thanks for your sweet email, by the way. I'm fine, just overwhelmed with life in general. It's no simple feat being a career woman and mother to a precocious preschooler! Beginning to see that I just can't "do it all" without something lacking, so I'm working on refocusing on what matters most - my family (and sanity!)
Love to you and yours :)
