Another Year Begins

It is almost the end of the first day of a new year. We had a lovely day with not one, not two, but three different "sets" of friends and it was great. There were kids who played with my kids, and grownups to talk to, and good food to eat (that I didn't cook. After several days of cooking I had enough!)

2007 was a momentous and difficult year for us. Here's hoping that 2008 will be less momentous and more enjoyable.

No great resolutions for me. There are of course things in my life that I wish to do better (or at least differently!) but no need to bore you with them. I'm looking forward to many things and planning to enjoy at least some of each day. That seems reasonable, don't you think?

I'll close with this bit of entertainment:

"Five Gold Rings"

Watch it all the way through, even if you think you have already gotten the gag, it's very cute and clever. Thanks to my friend Jill for linking to this; we shall not mention what I will do to her for getting that song stuck in my head for the last five days. And she will be here for a visit next weekend, so I have time to contemplate my revenge!

Best wishes to you for a glorious 2008.
