OOPS!!! Sorry I didn't know that about Jan. 1 being "everybody's" birthday, if a specific date isn't given. Oh well, Happy Birthday, whenever it is. :>) Mwoods, your statement about each year bringing "joy, laughter, and some tears" is so true. None of us ever knows what's ahead for us. But, as my DH says, "It's been a trip, but I wouldn't change any of it!"

Happy New Year to all the Rose growers! May the New year bring you lots of blooms! I am going on my 9th year here at the rose Forum!! I have learned so much from everybody, and still learning. All of you guys are great to have around. I just love everyone here, from the rose veterans who have been here as long as I have to the new ones who come and go. Happy New Year! Carrie =^..^=

Happy New Year! How was your New Year's Eve?

Ours was utterly quiet, although not unpleasant :). Both kids were off doing their own NYE celebration so the house was nice and calm. We ate dinner, chatted, then he went to sleep early and I read for awhile. Boring? Maybe but also a moment to cherish being secure in our lives and with so much for which to be grateful. Actually, our New Year's reminds me of the lyrics to one of my favorite Carly Simon songs, Misfit: There are plenty of late nights If you want to stay up for them You'll just want to find yourself a friend And tie a couple on in a night spot Draw pictures of your soul, win the jackpot Pour tears in your beer It's hip to be miserable when you're young and intellectual In a bit you'll admit you're a misfit Come on home with me We'll turn on the TV About 10 o'clock we'll turn off the light Not every man was born to stay up late at night There are plenty of boats to catch If you notice all the sails in the wind But you better look hard my friend In case you catch a ride on the wrong one In the distance is the one you belong on Oh the water is wide It's hip to be miserable when you're young and intellectual In a bit you'll admit you're a misfit Come on home with me We'll sit under a tree And if you get the itch I'll supply the scratch Not every man was born with a boat to catch It's hip to be miserable when you are young and intellectual In a bit you'll admit you're a misfit A misfit

I think its important as a single person to just get "out and about". I too enjoy my freedom yet would love a healthy, close relationship. My goal this year, for the first time in my 51 years of life, is to seek people out, to feed my need for belonging. I truly enjoy my own company, but we all need to get out and socialize... I agree that our New Year's resolutions should be processes...baby steps!

Pauline, you must be very blessed! I have always thought Vancouver Island must be the loveliest place to live, and, in my dreams, would have had a place like yours! I know you are enjoying it very much. I remember when you lost your good friend last year, and know that a loss like that makes you learn to realize how dear every day of life is.

I can't imagine how your garden can get a whole lot lovelier, but here's to a splendid 2009! And, you gave me a great idea - I'm going to try to make a blog, too!

Oh my goodness. What lovely winter pictures. They really are postcard perfect. You really do take such great shots. I have been to your blog tons of times because your flowers and your home is gorgeous. I too hope you have a great year with all your beautiful flowers, your precious but headache worthy deer (this from personal experience) and your loving family. Thanks for sharing, Judy

Happy New Year to you also Pauline and everyone else. That photo is certainly expressive. I've still got some scattered blooms in the gray foggy gloom that is the valley where I live.

I don't know Carla after 7 months of a lot of heat, I think I'd like it to be cold awhile longer. It just got cold finally last month:) It'd be nice this year if summer would come in summer not in the spring. I understand your yearning though, come to CA, I'll share with you:)
