I´d like to thank you all for your companionship, not only this year!
There is a lot of faces (with this I´d like to join Nicole with FFO) and loads to smile about (Annie with Friday Smiles).
Certainly we all hope the dumb war(s) would be over by now...
And health will come back (ack, still not better)
What was the best?
The Job? The summer? The flowers or pressies from Ingo? The little (big, little) things, like meeting new people, cooking, baking, sketching, ....
What was YOURS?
So much to smile about and be thankful for!!!!
A bath? I was asked at our pharmacy if we have a bathtub . I said no. Got a little package for a foot-bath :-)
(Not this one)

To many more smiles and Faces in 2023!

Hi Iris, thanks for your kind words over at mine. It's a sad time for us but I still have things to smile about, all those lovely memories. Wishing you a very Happy New Year and hopes for peace in the world. Hugs, Angela xXx

Much to be grateful for. I live in warm Hawaii. And I am still married to David and have a loving family I am proud of. Enjoy New Year's Eve, Iris.
gigi, that is a lot to be grateful for!
I hope I´m a bit fitter tomorrow. We´ll keep it simple tomorrow as Ingo is still a bit sick, too. You enjoy yours! And please keep on sharing your Hawaii-posts! All we can afford is that toast with this name! ;-)

Have a great 2023, Iris. Onward we all go, be happy, healthy and hopefully there will be peace for Ukraine.
Bill, yes to all, especially the latter.
And all the best to you, too!
Iris, I am sorry you are still ill. I have a candle going for you for healing. I want to thank you for sharing with FFO your wonderful art, journals, and stories. I so appreciate it. I look forward to to seeing all of next year. Wishing you and Ingo the very best New Year.
Nicole, thank you! This is a very nice and reassuring feeling a candle is lit so far away from here for me!
I sure will love to join your FFOs!
And I wish you and your family also a great start into and a way through the next year!
The way that a cold can hang on and on is really annoying. I'm experiencing the same kind of thing, but just keep doing what I want to do despite the sniffles. I hope you are really recovered soon, and can enjoy a good New Year's Eve.
Have a great year in 2023, and I agree with you that the blog friendships that continue are incredible.
best... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Keep smiling :)
Wishing you a happy, healthy and peaceful 2023.
All the best Jan
Mae, I´m so darn tired!!! The rest is annoying but the tiredness really is horrible.
But I BET I´m on the way up and hope you, too!
To friendship and a great New Year!!

Jan, nothing to add but: The same to you!
I'll be glad when you are finally over this. It seems you have been sick forever. I hope you are much better tomorrow so you can welcome 2023 in healthy style, dear. LOVE the cute bear with the sunflower for Ukraine. You always make me smile, dear Iris.
Soon 2023 will be here.
Coffee is on and stay safe
For me the best part of 2022 is all my blog friends, old and new ones and the most important of all, the day the twins were born. Next week they will be seven months old already!
For 2023 I hope for all of you to be safe and well and that all wars stop, and Ukraine remains a free country and joins the EU.
Gratitude 🙏
Elizabeth, I´m a bit better, thank you. Oh, when you´re not 20 anymore!
To smiles (I get many from yours, too, dear Elizabeth!)

Dora, too soon...

River, a big YES to all that!!!!
So nice also, you meet your twins and are allowed to share!

magiceye: yes!
