New Year, New....What, Exactly?

It's 2012. Whee.

Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed wishing my friends a Happy New Year and receiving their greetings as well.  But I should warn you (spoiler alert!), if you're filled with optimism and joy about the new year, well....this post just may not be for you.

I have mixed feelings about the beginning of a new year. Sometimes I do get caught up in the excitement and want to go out.  Sometimes I stay up to watch the ball drop or have a champagne toast with loved ones and friends wherever I may be. In fact, I have very fond memories of several new years celebrations.

But what really affects me is the idea of a clean slate. And I'm not just talking about resolutions.

Photo(s) of the Week

Happy New Year!  Before I share my new year thoughts in a separate post, I thought I'd start off 2012 with our Photos of the Week. I say photos because this week, there are two pics from our vacation that I want to post.

Enjoy, and more soon from MLWP!
