Here's to 2008 ...

2008 was an interesting year. I survived/learned ...

• Flood in my basement (4") while my husband was in Sweden on business
• My daughter's terrible two's
  
• My first craft fair which led to many more throughout the summer
• I learned to oxidize sterling which led to many experimentation's
  
• I put in insulation in our rehab house and realized I'm never going to do it again
• I've made many new friends
  
• I learned to use a torch using the old-fashioned acetylene tanks and successfully managed not to burn myself
