Looking forward

Here we are at the end of another year.  Traditionally I look back at my posts of the last year.  Tonight I did not, I have chosen to look forward.  I see 2016 as a gift, a chance to start new.
It's not that 2015 was bad, but it was a year of adjustments.  Within a few days of its start I lost dear little Millie, the worlds greatest dog.
I still miss her everyday but was blessed mid year by this little curly black ball of energy named Abby.  She is a perfect combination of delight and challenge. Lol. And I wouldn't have it any other way.  
So I look forward to welcoming 2016 tomorrow and tonight I intend to see out 2015 quietly with Abby, a nice bottle of red wine, and a new rug project.   Can't think of any better way to end the year 
I truly appreciate all of you who read my little blog.  I've made some lovely friends and wish you all the very best in the new year.
