Hello friend. :-)
The temperature is mild here today, but it still "feels" like November.
The tree is up, but waiting to see how "Lucy" reacts before decorating.
New beginnings...more soon.
Another year older today.
Yes, life IS good. :-)
Hugs, Becca

Ah yes, new beginnings come the new year. I am thinking about a haiku a day for a year and altering a calendar . I need to send you the link, so cool. I like that 365 photo business. I bet it works out to that many anyway. I thought about doing that with my mini-Polaroid, but the fillm cost would really add up. Hmmm.

Oh how I love your blog, but I think the print keeps shrinking lovey as I am thinking I am in need of a trip to my optometrist!!

Squinting hugs, Margie

This coming week-end will start the Christmas preparations in our home. Reading your words already brings it home for me :-)

That bowl looks poised for possibilities!

So much goodness of the season that is surrounding you and now surrounding me. Grateful for that, Friend!

Marilyn said...

Liz's workshops sound wonderful. Thanks for the link. Your dog ate daisies and my cat eats my ribbons - just laughing. I have been thinking about that 365 photo project. I need to check it out. It was a good day with a walk at the Japanese Gardens, taking pictures, and finishing my decorating in the house. Yes, it is beginning to look like Christmas. Next I must venture into the kitchen. Happy week, dear friend!

Caroline said...

Just beautiful! The tree is decorated here and fresh pine swags hung on the fence outside. I feel at peace...all of my shopping is pretty much finished and the decorating is done. Now I can actually enjoy the season!!!

Love the photo. This post has me singing that song, "Baby It's Cold Outside." I am over the moon because I have just re-connected with a long lost brother.

Kamana said...

Joanna Jenkins said...

I'm doing a Project 365 this year - and have loved it! I need the discipline -and excuse- to always have the camera with me, seeing things in a different way! While YOU obviously don't need the practice, I'd encourage you to do it!
