A Lazy First Day...

Of this promising New Year...
Our pond, 12/31/08, snowing and cold
Snow is so much prettier this time of  year.

Not much going on today. House is all cleaned after a family-filled New Year's Eve feast that lasted until 3am. I've managed to at least shower and get out of my pj's, tho that wasn't accomplished until 12:30pm. I've spent the rest of this quiet day watching sappy holiday movies on the Hallmark Channel. Pretty much a perfect day.

May each and every one of you, have a blessed 2009. 
As I wrote yesterday...

No resolutions this year - just heart-felt thoughts and prayers for a new year that is full of promises realized, new beginnings, happiness and security for all. That's not asking too much, is it?

  1. This scene is so peaceful...

    You ask about one of my pictures for Sky Watch--it is an owl that is on the horizon. If you will scroll on down to Dec 29 you will see some actual pictures owls.

  4. I worked today and the girls were asked to set goals rather than make resolutions. I like that. Goals I can do.

    Happy New Year! Lovely snowy pond. :)

  8. The snow looks wonderful! It was 70 degrees here today, so I've been busy working around the house today. Believe me, if it were cold, I'd have been inside watching the Hallmark channel too.

    Hoping you have a blessed New Year!

  13. I love this post. The picture is wonderful. The day DOES sound perfect. (I long for a day like that.) And I don't believe in resolutions, so that's just perfect!
