It's still cold here and we have had a few snow flurries but not bad, and nothing new is laying.
We have been for a walk - being careful as the pavements were pretty treacherous. I have also been scrapping and have caught up on all of my walk pages except today's.
I have also made my JYC page.
The photo is of one of my most special gifts from school. I am very very lucky and have lots of gifts from the children. However, this was one that touched me this time. It was a bag full of home made goodies. there were four different bags of sweeties - all of which were beautifully packaged and tasted truly gorgeous (I have to get the recipe for the Brownies as they were awesome) There was also a beautiful handmade beaded star in white and green - the colours of my tree this year. Emily had made them with her Mum and it was a really special gift.
So - here is the penultimate prompt for this year long project.
I can't believe it has been going for so long - without a hitch too (Can I safely say that now I only have one more prompt to write.)
I hope that you enjoy the prompt and making the page to go with it.
Thank you Karen-I like the colours already that I can see from the little snapshot.
Sorry to tell you but you entered your 6th decade on earth with your birthday, just as I scared myself realising that from January this year, I am now in my 7th decade! (but still blonde and sometimes wearing killer heels!!)

When I made last week's page, I scrolled through the hundreds (thousands?) of photos from this year looking for the best, tallest, scariest, etc. to prompt me in my journaling. I was struck by this fact: it wasn't the large events or even the bad health news that I and my family received, it was the amazing life I've lived and documented this year -- especially following all the prompts you've given us and worked so hard to produce. I'm so pleased to have 50 pages about me. Thank you!

Gosh, I've got to get busy if I'm going to finish my album before the year's out as I'm up to #44. Thank you for today's prompt though and all your hard work over this year. I know I've appreciated it all.
Wishing you, Nigel, your furry babies and your killer heels an amazing and relaxing Christmas and a happy New Year xx

Hi Karen
Thanks for the prompt. Apart from a couple of bouts of rubbish and an unknown illness earlier in the year, lots of good memories to be remembered.
Hope you, Nij and fur babies have a fab Christmas and best wishes for the New Year Love Kim x
