The youngest daughter who loves to draw also loves music. She has forgotten though how to play the recorder mostly because her skills were self-taught.

She got an RJ  guitar for her birthday (that’s her and the hubby) and she watches video tutorials on how to play the guitar. Before she got interested in getting a guitar, she also played the piano and expressed wanting to have her own drum sets for kids. Being busy in school doesn’t give us time for proper guitar lessons yet, so we are targeting summer programs in our area.

I hope we’d be able to find a good program soon.

If you haven’t watched just one of BBC’s Sherlock episodes, then this is the perfect time to watch because there have been 5 episodes already shown.

I’ve watched all five episodes so far and I can’t wait for the sixth. I can’t really blame BBC for having only a few episodes because an hour and a half for each episode is just like watching a movie! At the same time, it makes us fans yearn for more.

I am a big fan of Sherlock Holmes, having two volumes of those thick books written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I’ve read all the stories there, some twice, others thrice. One was borrowed and was not returned and I believe because I truly am a fan, I got the same book from an event I attended: new, still covered and smelling oh so good.

Anyway, I’ve watched the two movies with Robert Downey Jr too.

What I plan to do is to look for older TV shows to watch and enjoy.

Here are interesting love quotes in time for ehem, Valentine’s Day, which would be great to include when giving cool valentines gifts for him or her:

• For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul. ~Judy Garland
• To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance. ~Oscar Wilde
• “Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.” ~Kahlil Gibran
• “Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart.” ~Unknown
• “If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you.” ~Winnie the Pooh
• “Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.” ~Antoine de Saint Exupery

My post Christmas photo of the living room at my mother-in-law’s home. Lovely isn’t it?

For me, it feels like a fireplace with a roaring fire, a plush rug on glass mosaic tiles on the floor and a big rocking chair should complete the picture. Well, there is a rocking chair but not near the tree.

My interior designer brother-in-law prepped this as he always does every year. It takes a lot of time and patience along with creativity and style to make a home look like this.

Of course, it takes more than Christmas decorations to say the Christmas spirit is in the people’s hearts.
