After I ventured out and got the mail, which had the cutest photo of my friend, her husband and their two poochies on a Christmas card, I grabbed the camera and took some photos. I was afraid I’d slip if it was icy, but the sun melted the snow just enough to make walking on it okay.
My little angel flag to greet people:
My fairy garden…all it’s inhabitants are tucked away for the winter-good thing!
The day before Thanksgiving, I sent my husband Brian out to take what would be the last clinging leaves on the trees and bushes. They would be gone within a week. This is a burning bush-such a neat specimen dealing with pure red.

I was so glad he is finally using our camera! An array of maples:
Pretty nice, huh?
You know how things happen in threes? Well, yesterday my outlet next to the bed (or is it the wall switch) went. The house is going on 48 yrs old. So this is not good. Bri will try and replace the outlet, he’s done that before. Hope that’s it. He has my light plugged into another outlet by means of orange extension cord!
I also broke the stopper in my fairly new kitchen sink. The metal part that holds it in place so you can have water in the sink, broke off.
And finally, I went in my china cabinet to retrieve my crystal turkey that I use for cranberry sauce. I noticed that before I even opened the door, that a wooden egg in an egg cup had fallen over. Well, try as I may, I couldn’t open the door without the egg falling, and it nicked a Waterford crystal bowl that I’ve had for almost 24 years. Yikes! That’s it please!

My husband Brian and our son Sean! That was too easy. : )
Had to include this one too:
When I signed up for my pro account at Flickr, I was offered some free mini-cards by Moo. Today they arrived from London, England! There are 10- 1″ x less than 3″ matte finished cards. I guess it’s all the rage over at Flickr to trade them! You have to be sure you use an image what will fit in that space. What a nice surprise for a somewhat blah day for me (super achy from all the stress).

Our cat Cosmo is so darn flexible-look how comfy he is in this position. Last night he was half hanging off the dining room chair playing with his feather on a stick-I thought he’d do a back flip like a gymnast! Love this guy!
The miniature rose
The nosy kitty who just had to check it out!
And may I add-Sean comes home in 7.5 days!!!
At the end of June this year, my family and I were invited to a wedding in NYC. We did get to sightsee a bit and even attended Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral. I think this is a unusual classic structure in the heart of a modern city.

All I can say is, Longwood Gardens saved me again!

Just to let you know, I paid for my flickr account for a year and if I find neat photos like JT or anything or anyone else, I can post them directly to my blog. Flickr is really a fun place to go and you can join tons of groups that follow your interests. You can have a free Flickr account, but with all the photos I take, I need to be able to have unlimited storage someplace.

This really brightened my day.
