Turning Over a New Leaf

Submitted by szgarvey on

For my New Year's resolution, I resolve to turn over a new leaf.

Oh, sure, most folks resolve to eat less, exercise more, drink less, read more, stress less, save more, gripe less, and volunteer more.

Not me.

I'm turning over a new leaf.

You never know what kind of insect you'll find there or what kind of insect will "pose" for you.

Happy New Year! (And may one of your resolutions involve "turning over a new leaf.")
