Ummm..It's TIME to er.....umm

Ummm..It's TIME to er.....umm Make New Years Resolutions.... today I thought I would share mine.
And number two is.......

When I hear a funny joke I will not reply, "LOL... LOL!"

You found some really great watches and clocks. The first one reminds me of a watch I had a long time ago. And you photos of Rich's Grandfather clock are gorgeous.

I've got to get rid of the LOL too. Except I keep wanting to write MOL like I do on animal friends' blogs. We need a new phrase or acronym.

Sandra, such a timely post. Sorry, I couldn't resist saying that, well could haves but didn't! It has been such fun following your blog this year with your wonderful sense of humor and outlook and such terrific photography. It's obvious you have such great joy in life and are happy to share with everyone. You are a very special person! Thanks too for all your comments on our blog this year. Looking forward to 2012 and wishing you and Bob a very Happy New Year. And yes I do have some resolutions, making them is easier than keeping them for sure!

Sandra, These photos are stunning!
My favorite is that grandfather clock. Such wonderful detail. I love the flowers, style of the numbers and color. I can see a man with a hat in there. This is a beautiful grandfather clock. I just love what you did with it in these pics!
I like the watch pic that has all the colors over it...pretty!

You really know how to end 2011. :)

We just dropped off two watches to the jewelers yesterday. My son has a watch collection (4). He really likes watches!

We're working on a new phrase to replace "LOL". I'll get my teenage son right on it. :)

So happy we found each other this year!
