with sleep, optimism returns

what a difference a day makes. and a good night's sleep. awoke this morning, throat still store, but feeling like i shook off the cold before it really came on. when you're rested and not feeling drained, it's amazing how much more optimistic you can feel towards the world. i made these little felt trees during the market (at least there i used my time wisely). they're to inspire a crafty couple of hours at my local library next week. i hope a lot of kids will come and want to make their very own little felty christmas trees. simple discs of felt, a bit of yarn, a bead, sticks from the yard and a glue gun. simple and sweet. and making me feel like i can face the world again. one sweet little felty christmas tree at a time.

more soon...
