Happy New Year to one and all!

Life on the Go

All pictures were taken with my mobile phone -

Samsung Galaxy S3

Day 22 - Sheep

As I didn't have any sheep in the backyard 

or a sheep ornament for that matter, 

I thought of wool.

I knit and crochet 

but I will only use synthetic wool.

This is some of my stash. 

Day 23 - Star 

You may remember this star 

from my sketchbook earlier this year. 

It's a tea-light holder

I missed days 24 & 25 because it was way too hectic.

Day 26 - Box 

This Buddha sits atop a white, wooden box in my bedroom. 

I painted the box in a roses design 

back when I was going through a Shabby Chic phase. 

I then painted it white with the intention of 

painting a different design on it one day. 

This box holds some sentimental treasures 

that I've saved over the years.

Day 27 - Bottle 

I love blue glass bottles 

because they remind me of the sea 

and I love anything to do with the sea. 

These bottles sit surrounded by shells on an aged silver tray.

Day 28 - Book 

This is the book I'm currently reading. 

So far, so good. 

 It's a non-fiction book written by the woman 

who actually hikes the trail 

having never been hiking in her life before. 

She was feeling lost after her mother died, 

and her marriage ended, 

among other things. 

On the spur of the moment, 

she sets herself the goal of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. 

There is a movie about it 

starring Reese Witherspoon 

in the leading role. 

I think it's due for release in 2014.

Day 29 - Missed out on this one too. 

Day 30 - Selfie 

That would be me....

and one of my many Buddhas. 

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year! 

May 2014 be filled with 
love, compassion, peace and kindness. 
Thank you for taking the time 
to come visit my blog this past year 
and I hope to see you in the new year. xo 

As with last year, 

I just had to share my favourite version of 

Auld Lang Syne. 

No matter the version, this song never fails

 to bring a tear to my eye.
and it's the song I prefer to have playing
as 2014 makes its grand entrance.

Here is the direct link to YouTube just in case it doesn't play in the post.

See you in 2014, my friends ! xo
