Wow, another year. Can you believe it? 2009. I hope everyone had a wonderful and successful 2008. And I hope that success carries over into 2009.

The new year will definitely be filled with anticipation as well as concerns. Will the economy get better or worse? Will this effect online shopping more then it has? I know I have been buying less. And financial concerns are always at the forefront of our daily decisions.

Oh, not me, my Indie site. It's been so long since I've been here to visit my site. Shame on me. And I haven't even been very busy this winter.

My favorite time of year. Except I won't be able to do my favorite hobby-beadmaking. With this time of year comes cold, and I cannot do lampworking because I don't have a ventilation system, and the fumes from the glass is very harmful.

So, instead I'll be focusing on my second favorite hobby-Stained Glass!! I don't spend as much time on this hobby as I'd like. But now is a good time of year. I'll be able to make some great Christmas items, or other sensations! Keep an eye out on m
