A Beautiful Day…

It’s absolutely gorgeous outside! And where am I? Inside…working for my day job. ***Sigh*** I wish I could be out in the brisk, cool air; sitting on a bench with my Starbucks coffee, knitting away…or taking Daisy for a walk. Something that would require me being outside. But no, here I sit in my home office working. I love my job, don’t get me wrong. But during this holiday season, I want to play outside and well, just play.

I love stormy days in the winter, but since we have had quite a few storms lately, I am relishing the sunny day today.  If I were not working today, I would like to go to my favorite yarn store, knit outside, be creative in some sort of way. Well, maybe I can do some of that this weekend…after we put Christmas away.

I always hate putting Christmas decorations away. It’s so sad to me. The ending of one year, the ending of the holiday season. It went by way too fast this year. I guess it seems more sad to me this year as it was my last Christmas in my twenties. In 2011 I shall be turning 30! I am looking forward to my thirties, but I am not ready for it. :o)

As for the New Year’s resolutions…I plan on going to the gym more, especially now that I have a workout buddy. I plan on blogging more…a shock I know! And I want to create more patterns and other new items for my store. I had received this great kit for making glass pendants. So I will be working with that this coming year. I will continue my yarn obsession, my obsession with crafting, birdies and owls.

Well, I should get back to work now. More to come!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us!

With fall and the holiday season rapidly approaching, DGC has been hard at work generating new items that are hip, trendy and unique. Lots of items have been added for not only babies, but for pets too. DGC launched a new line for our furry friends called Posh Pooches by DaisyDog Wear. As of right now there are embroidered jackets for our four-legged friends. As winter nears, there are rumors of dog sweaters joining the line up of doggy fashion. Be sure to check back 006 Here is Daisy modeling one of the Posh Pooches trench coat by DaisyDog Wear. Poor dog…it was a 100 degrees out that day. She did a good job of sitting still for the photographer.

Other recent additions to the DGC store are new items for babies. There are embroidered onesies and fleece blankets! These are so adorable.
