Tickled Tuesday - Closing 2010

Today I am super "tickled"... I reached 1000 blog views last night!!! Thank you SO much to everyone who reads, follows, and/or supports my blog in ANY way. I am truly, truly grateful for the opportunity to share my experiences and ideas in a creative and shareable (is that even a word?) format. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!

This is a picture of me, circa 1984, during my "cheesy smile" phase. It's definitely what I looked like when I saw how many followers and blog views I had last night! (Check out that sweet piano I'm rocking out on.)

I'm debating on spending my New Years at home, working on either a new recipe or a craft so I can ring in 2011 with a new blog. I'm determined to really focus on it this year, and to start incorporating giveaways, along with my own shop, BEadECLECTIC. First I need to build up more inventory though- so that won't be too immediate.

On to Tickled Tuesday! This week is just a quick quote from an amazing woman, Ruth Gordon. I'm reading her biography right now, Ruth Gordon - An Open Book, and it's interesting, funny and inspirational. I definitely recommend you check it out!

Never give up. And never, under any circumstances, face the facts.
-Ruth Gordon

Happy New Year! *muwah*
