Hello Happy Pink Saturday Friends...Be sure and visit Beverly our most gracious host of our fun pink event for all the other pinkalicious blogs taking part today...
The holidays are behind us. For me, all decorations have been organized and safely packed away for another year. This has been a week of thinking what direction I want to go in creating....what new things I want to learn. Lots of contemplating. Lots of pouring over my vast collection of books and thinking, too.
I love painting and I especially enjoy making the Spindle Ladies and know I will be offering more in many sizes with their bases in mosaics....I intend to do lots more painting, especially in the spring as things warm up.
Oh, I have ideas and things I just want to try my hand at....I am excited!
And, on one of the PS blogs I read an idea that really appealed to me. Take a word, just one word and make it your word for the year instead of a resolution that can so easily be broken...My word is going to be Content....In the face all the stresses of today, I want to find that I can accept all that comes my way and be thankful for all that I have and well...just be content.
Wishing you a week of contentment!
Smiles,
Jil

I like the word "content," Jill! It says a lot and is a good word to remember. A new year is a delight in that it offers us lots of things to look forward to! Happy 2011 and Pink Saturday!
PS: Thanks for sending my blog link to your family -- I hope they enjoy it!
Hi Jil,
Happy Pink Saturday!
Oh I love to see roses, always!! I see I am not the only one who feels a moment of pause at the new year... to dream it all up again:-) Content is a very nice word, and using a single word is a great idea! Good luck!
Hugs,
Bella
Content is a very good word for the year. Mine is "enough". It can be enough already, just enough, that's enough, I have enough and many more combination's. Love your little pink angel.
Well said, Jil! I am content most of the time but every now and then, something comes up to 'rile' me. To be content all the time is a condition of the heart whereby one is satisfied; a very honourable state to find oneself in! I love your roses and your sweet little angel! Happy Pink Saturday and I wish you a lovely and contented weekend.
Blessings,
Sandi
You word would suit me. Right now I am content with my life.
Hi Jill~
I enjoy your site very much! Your spindle girls are adorable! I too remember reading about picking a word for the year - I like that idea. I think I will choose "believe".
Happy Pink Saturday!
Hi,Jil!! Wonderful ideas for the New year!!I've tried to write you several times,but it seems mails don't reach you...hugs,Debby from Italy!! ^_^
Beautiful flowers to see this cold, wintery morning. 'Content' a wonderful word. Happy Pink Saturday:)
I like this idea!! Thanks!
If I had to pick a word for the year, it would have to be gratitude. That is how I feel about my life and it's many blessings. Happy Pink Saturday Jil, Char
Happy Pink Saturday Jil Sweetie...
Oh what a beautiful word you have chosen. I too love "Content". I can't wait to see where it takes you.

Contentment is an important part of being happy, it says we are happy and complete where we are, not pining for what others have. A very good word. Happy PS
