Big Changes in 2015

Torn. Apps used: Modern Grunge, DistressedFX.

A lone tree in December.

Hello, Everyone - it's been awhile. The good news is that our house here in Virginia sold in one week. We are shocked and suddenly scrambling to get moved in less than a month. I can't believe I'll be in Florida permanently in such a short time. I'm feeling every emotion possible right now as I get ready to say goodbye to this beautiful home I've lived in for almost 20 years. There are so many memories here...it'll be very sad to walk away, but I'm also happy for the new adventures and memories awaiting me down south.

Thank goodness for my iPhone and camera apps - my creative time has come to a dead halt these last weeks. But I do try to play with an iPhone photo each night while I sit and watch a little TV. Here are two photos I edited, featuring a great new app I've discovered: Modern Grunge (or Grunge HD). I just love it.

This will be my last post until I'm down in Florida and settled - it could be six weeks or so. It'll be strange to have all my 'Virginia woods and country roads' photos replaced with Florida palm trees and open skies. Until then - Happy New Year and I hope to be back soon!

  2. It was just meant to be....take your time, feel what you feel, mourn . . . and then celebrate! Hours away from a beach, and shell collecting and warm weather and the ocean. I'm so happy for you!! xo

  9. Love that first photo. I did the moving thing last year, and it definitely took me away from the blog, among other things. Hopefully you can find time to write your memories of your old house as well as the excitement and adventures of the new. I wish you all the best. And hey, we'll almost be neighbors! Kinda, sorta :)
