January is a
time for welcoming in the New Year with a Masquerade Partay. Of course as
introverts we prefer to spend the evening inside in our jammies and binge
watching one of our favorite shows. For this project I borrowed a few
“Glamorous Friends” adding them to a found picture frame. A funny story, my mom
would leave the pictures that came with the picture frames and we’d have all
these unknown but handsome and beautiful “relatives” around our house until
they got replaced with actual pictures of us or our relations.

Some Final Thoughts.
January is a time for putting back on our
“masks” disguised as New Year Resolutions. So many people make promise to
themselves that this will be the year that they will exercise more, drink less,
eat healthy, get organized, be kinder, get that divorce, finally get married,
the list goes on an on. I never make New year Resolutions as I fail at them
every time. I will however try to live my best self and cling to the quote by
Joey Adams, “May your Troubles last as long as your New Year’s resolutions.”
