I honestly can't believe I kept this up for the entire year. I didn't miss one single day of taking pictures, which is phenomenal for me. I can't make the promise that I'll continue this project. I may change it to one picture a week, but I'll think about that tomorrow. Tomorrow's another day, after all.

Yet another view from my spot on the sofa. The kittens have gone home, and the dog has finally relaxed.

We saw a deer in the backyard on Christmas and it was raining. Does that make it a Christmas rain-deer?

Another relic from my past. This was a school art project in 1976, when I was 13 years old. I still hang it on our tree every year.
