Enlightening New Year


We normally open the cottage back door to let the old year out and open the front door to let in the New Year.
I'm never sure if it's just the blast of cold air that wakes me up, or the New Year really does come in and clears out old cobwebs I might have missed.
The church bells in the village go like the clappers every year at one minute past 12.00. Any remaining cobwebs get blown out by their beautiful tone..


It's been a joy to meet so many new friends this year, and treasure every single one that I have known for so long.
There is never one comment that you leave that is left unread. I'm not the best blogger in the world at replying, but your comments really do mean so much.

Especially in June, and then eight weeks later when Mew decided to join Amie Soto Blossom.


New Years are for looking forward.
Here is to 2012.  Open that back door and open the front.


May we all have health, wealth, be postive and wize during the coming year. Not to mention creative and a hundred and one other things.. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS....

Lots of love Tony, Midge, Frank and Freya Rose Blossom XXX

Happy New Year, I think you get it earlier than us, lol.
I was lazy today, did nothing in particular.

Sue said...

That sounds like a wonderful tradition and it's quite warm here tonight, but I'd have dogs running in and out and all over the place. Better to just step onto the porch for a kiss at midnight.

Have a safe, happy and healthy new year.
Sue

Here we go launching into another creative year, meeting old friends again and making new ones, having a great time and enjoying life with all that it has to offer. Sounds good to me and we have been sweeping the cobwebs away, with a long handled brush.
