Oh dear. I just posted a photo of the cherry blossoms on the tree I walk past on my way to work, and on a whim, did a search for “cherry blossoms in january“. They’re everywhere – Bergen, Paris, New York, Massachusetts. This is not good.

    Take what you can get I say *smile* Happy New Year (chinese new year still yet to come). At long last I have made a resolution. I’ve been pushed to it by circumstance. My blog wandering days are coming to a close. I’m restricting myself soon to my little acre of the blogsphere, a plot if you will.

    hugs and kisses to all and Jill, grand merci, oui un grand grand merci

    Jill, Weez has some nice pics and an entry about the weather in Rochester, NY. Has there been a plot by the Swedish Academy to award the Nobel Peace price to the Weather Controllers? 🙂
