sparkling lights, Barbara's birthday and 2010 ends warmly

NEW YEAR' S Evening Day
The lights in the porch are glowing brightly now that the sun has set (we should change the timer to accomodate the later sunset) and we're looking forward to a quiet evening at home. We started the day with Mary and Bud for breakfast,toasting Barbara, saw Jim Mc,  went to the beach with Deezel and then to Michael's and Barnes and Noble.
 I got several new stamps and stamp cleaner, a new sketch books for 365 Haiku 2011 and  for Art Journal MMXI  - I love how Google has the new year in Roman numerals.....

My MMX Art Journal needed a Table of Contents and a brush up for NewYear's Eve's page...and it's done.  I love reviewing the work and giving pages titles.  I'll photo a few pages and post them.

It's just the two of us tonight. We have had Anne, Bruce and Ila for Trivial Pursuit and Chinese several years' passed. Well, now it's just us. It looks like the Roger/Bruce situation might be resolved next week, since Ila only retires once.

Earlier, we had some time outside, since the temperature hit 50 this afternoon. Deezel wanted to play . I threw a few snowballs for him. Buck Wheat prowled the rock pile for mice then picked his way to the screenhouse following the footprints we had made.

                                                         HAPPY 2011
Tomorrow, NewYear's Day with Nancy and Roy in Northwood.
This Haiku will be #1 for 2011 (MMXI) . The date tomorrow is one, one eleven..... 1/1/11.
                              
                                                  DAILY HAIKU 2009
                                     
                                    Incredible moon
                 rises, full beyond the spruce
                                    dusted in white light.


This drawing with pencil, colored pencil and marker celebrates a lovely evening to end the year and start a new one.
The text/verse will be # 1 for 2011 (MMXI)
Let's look for much happiness, love and peace for the NewYear. And thanks to my family and dear friends for their love and presence.
