The world is old tonight, the world is old
The stars around the fold do show their light
Do show their light
And so they did, and so, a thousand years ago
And so will do, good lads, when we lie coldThe world is still tonight, the world is still
The snow on vale and hill like wool lies white
Like wool lies white
And so it did, and so, a thousand years ago
And so will do, my love, when we like will– from the singing of Jean Ritchie
It’s been a quiet day here. I’ve cleaned, and read, and had sweet, gentle moments with Paul and the cats. There’s yeasted buckwheat waffle batter in the kitchen, having a long, slow rise until morning. No resolutions yet (if at all); I will think about the new year in its own time.
Wishing you joy, health, love and peace in 2007.

How beautiful. Wishing you a calm and quiet joy.
Happy new year to you!
What a serene and lovely post. Wishing you a wonderful 2007.
“s” just like the first letter of my first and last names. what a great idea to avoid spam!
your posted photo for March looks just like my cat, Misty. some day I really *must* learn how to do the digital transfer thing.
I was browsing through various blogs and yours looks so interesting! i’ll be back, if the cats will let me stop petting them long enough to use the computer keyboard.
best wishes for 2007

P. S. It’s me again. What kind of music do you like? I hope your list includes, Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, oldies but goodies.
And a Happy New Year to you and yours and the Mckittens.
Happy New Year to you, Paul, and the McKittens. Tiffany and I will head up for Dancing Fool at the start of February. I hope we can manage a visit then. We’re sorry that October didn’t work out.
