It's an amazing 2012, Still basking in the glow
of fellowship,
in lots of Family & extended Family "Love"
& a bit tired from
Holiday Travels & very Thankful
to see 2012 has arrived & is steadily unfolding!

updating & cleaning a few names
out of the cell phone's
database for 2012...
new "years" are always so strange!..
coming to terms with,
remembering & missing those relatives
& friends who are no longer
here physically.. those that made their transitions
in 2011...RIP
