I think throughout the ‘calendar’ year we can count on various ‘new years’ to help us restart!
We haven’t seen the sun for a bit – it’s ‘No-noing’ again 😉
(((Hugs)))
Hope you feel the sun on your skin soon. Blessings, Jules.
No sun today, another snow storm on the way…
Sounds like Winter. Typical winter. Hang on, my sweet.
More snow so far this year than in the last three or five… I’m sure some folks would have liked some of this in December.
At least the plows have come through and all of yesterday’s (Friday pretty much all day) snow has stopped. And the sun is out.
Cheers for the sun! 🙂
Cheers for the sun. Bundle up. ❄️ 🧣 🧤
At least the sun is out – for the moment.
Our high will be zero!
I may bundle up to top off the feeders 🙂
Beautiful and inspiring, Selma, especially to begin a new year. Hugs xo
I’m so happy to see you dropped by, lovely Lauren 💕 Glad you liked it. Xoxo 🤗
Hey Selma, it’s Lauren. 🥰
Yes it is, Lauren. Forgive the typo—it happens sometimes.
Hope your day wasn’t ruined by it.
Blessing on your evening, Lauren 💕

Absolutely beautiful
Thanks for seeing it beautiful, dear Ms Hazy. (Lynn?) you have a beautiful soul. Blessing you. Have a great weekend.
Hope your weekend was great as well.
Thanks. Rain afforded me just the comfort I needed. So yes, I did have a good weekend.
Hope the same for you, dear one. Xo
