I went outside tonight, just a few moments ago, and looked to the stars in the sky for answers to questions I did not even know that I had posed. The air is turning cold, crisp and I know it is probably a longing on my part, but I swear that I smell snow on the wind. I love snow and the feeling of being snuggled at home although that is sometimes far from the reality.

I had a great birthday day and received a camera from Phil so that I could begin to photograph jewelry and create my etsy site! I am excited at the prospect. I also did a major splurge ( it was time for me to do my part and stimulate the economy ) and ordered some paints that Kathy D recommended. I can hardly wait to try them out. I feel paintings already swimming in my head and I am promising new pictures to my blog with the NEW camera.

In honor of the gorgeous sequins hanging in the sky tonight; I lead with this photo of one of my sterling stars. I have always looked to the heavens for answers and guidance!
