This is a photo of Lake Michigan in Spring which is in my thoughts everyday as the winter doldrums settle in...

Today I mostly:

- lay on the sofa
- got intimidated by that great pile of books.

Mountains of moussaka (in progress). Again, this shot has nothing to do with 'new beginnings', but pretty much sums up my day, which was spent at the amusingly named Woodbridge Cruising Club (I can assure you that it's a sailing club, and isn't half as sordid as the name suggests!) helping me muvver prepare a meal for 60-odd members. I NEVER want to see (or smell) lamb mince EVER AGAIN!

Lovely Djinn in his lovely box. I have a confession to make. Well, two confessions actually. The first is that this photo has absolutely nothing to do with the theme 'new beginnings', but I had completely run out of ideas. And, as it rained all day, this shot pretty much sums it up for me, i.e. stuck in the house all day with a sleeping cat. The other confession is that I actually took this photo on the 16th Jan, because I had managed to inadvertently delete the original photo. But, it was pretty much similar to this one. I don't think Djinn moved for 48 hours!

Snowbells in the front garden. The first flowers of the new year, assuming you don't count the forsythia (see below).

Brand new microwave from Tescos - only £33! Very industrial stylings. This is a 'serious' microwave.

I went to see my acupuncturist and nutritional therapist today. As well as being stuck all over with needles, I came away with this little selection of goodies. How do they fit the theme? Well, they're all new!

New books to read (I went a bit mad in the second-hand/remainders section of the enormous Waterstones on Gower Street in London on Tuesday).

A new beginning for me, perhaps? Call me crazy if you like, but I'm trying out 'tapping' to help ease my anxiety problems. So far, so good!

Not a 'new beginning' as such, but a new perspective (for me) on an old 'friend'.Location: The Great Court, from the third floor, British Museum.
- And here's a bonus shot of the roof, cos I love it so.

A rather conceptual photograph for Saturday. This is space where the Christmas tree WAS (we took all the decorations down yesterday). Feels like 2007 has truly been left behind, and 2008 has started.Location: Sitting room, parents' house, Ufford, Suffolk.
