Best wishes to you all for a very Happy New Year with MUCH less Covid around… 😅
… from me, your intrepid blog host, with makeup and a decent haircut before a recent Zoom get-together…
…and my natural self, greeting 2022. Wheee! Sigh…
See you later! Be well!
😁😻💝💫🥂🎉🎊🎶

I see a light side and a dark side of you here that don’t define you. Your brain and your heart are not showing, and those are the things that make me eager to continue our friendship. Lighten up, Anne. Happy New Year, Ellie.

Happy New Year! I don’t even bother for Zoom – but will make an effort if going out to dine. (Yes, we do that.)

HNY!! Wow, dining out has just been forbidden in our province. Restos can deliver though.

You look great in both shots. Gee, how come I look so bad lately? The last two years have ravaged my face, even if it’s a cliche.
