The Eve Of 2011

Happy New Year's Eve!

Would you join me for a little celebration?

Don't forget to wear your party dress!

And those gorgeous heels!

Glittery stars will lead your way...

To a pretty gold table setting...

Where a glass of champagne...

and some snacks await.

Grab some confetti and make a wish for the new year.

~However you celebrate, I hope your New Year's Eve is fantastic! xo

P.S. It's been 1 year since Bryan proposed! and less than five months until our wedding day!

Penny-a-Ride
New Year's partiers in Chicago will be able to ride the trains and buses tonight for just one penny... but the catch is that they will have to clean up their own puke.

Maine Asks Out
The state of Maine is asking to be exempted from a key part of Obamacare... the part that doesn't give you free coverage when you freeze to death.

Ivy League Charity Push
Two Yale professors and one from Cornell are starting a movement calling on all "rich" people to donate more money to charity. In other words, they're raising tuition prices at Yale and Cornell.

Estate Tax Deadline
When the new year begins, the estate tax goes from 0% to a whopping 35% for multi-millionaires. Which means Paris Hilton's dogs have until midnight to maul her to death.

UConn Streak Ends
The UConn women's basketball team had its winning streak broken at 90 games last night after losing to Stanford. UConn falls 10 wins short of a 100-game streak and 1,000 wins shy of getting anyone to care about women's basketball.

December 31st

1225: The Ly Dynasty of Vietnam ends after 216 years after the death of Ly Chieu Hoang and a visit from Rambo.

1862: Abraham Lincoln signs an act that admits West Virginia to the Union, thus finally giving toothless Americans equal citizenship rights.

1951: The Marshall Plan expires after American taxpayers can no longer support helping people who wear Capezios.

The year 2010 on my blog - a photo-cavalcade

Twenty-eleven is getting closer and it is time to make another photo cavalcade. This year I have not picked one photo for each month, but rather chosen 15 pictures that I feel represent my experiences this year and also the state of my photography. I hope you will enjoy them - just click on the fireworks above, or here, and then start the slide show rolling.

Godt Nytt År! - Happy New Year!

Bare

Bare is what our house feels like now that the Christmas decorations are all safely packed away until next year. We had a beautiful first Christmas together. I hope yours was wonderful too! Yesterday, after a bad day, I went on a cleaning spree and put all of our holiday items away (except for the actual tree, which is sitting with just the lights on, waiting for Bryan to disassemble it). Now I'm feeling sort of uninspired with decorating for the rest of the winter season. It's like I'm ready for bright, cheery spring decor. I need some ideas to make our house feel less empty! So, what about you, is all your Christmas decor put away?

~Hope your day is wonderful!

I tried, I really did....

To put up a garland around the interior arch in my entrance hall. We hung the exterior garland early in December and it was not easy. Next year I will hang a thicker garland on the exterior arch, even though this was the deluxe garland. Perhaps a different source will help.

If you will remember, I was inspired by this beautiful photograph of an interior front door arch hung with thick amazing garland . I bought all the piece parts of the garland and got ready to hang it - with the help of my mechanical engineer - my husband. He took one look at what we were attempting to hang and said there would be too many nail holes in the woodwork, and I had to agree - so no hanging the garland inside the front door. Sigh...

Instead I took all of the parts and reworked my mantel, which had dried up anyway. I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year! See you in 2011.

Some Christmas 2010 memories from my humble abode....

December 30th

1066: A Muslim mob storms the royal palace in Granada, crucifies Jewish vizier Joseph ibn Naghrela and massacres most of the Jewish population of the city. Leftist scholars are still trying to figure out how peaceful Muslims got so angry about Israel almost 900 years before it was even founded.

1916: The last coronation in Hungary is performed for King Charles IV and Queen Zita. After them, all Hungarian kings and queens got their crowns in the mail.

1993: Israel and the Vatican establish diplomatic relations and form a pact to make everyone in the world feel guilty.

ABC--X--always problematical

I am bypassing my UK trip photos for this letter, as the perfect example showed itself the other day.

How did this come about up there in the forest treetop? Here are the ground level views of the trees involved.

The root systems of evergreens are very shallow, and often depend on intertangling with other trees in the vicinity for stability to support their bulk. Despite the extent to which the tree on the right is uprooted, its crown still appears healthy. I wonder how long that will be, and how long the tree has leaned as it is now.

When ABC Wednesday reaches the letter X, I always think of two things. X brings out the creativity in all of the participants--it will be interesting to see what is posted. And another round wil l start soon--shall I continue? Probably so--I have been hooked since round two and have not missed a week except this summer while traveling--and I made those letters up.
