January 1st


I always heard that you spend the New Year with the person you kiss at midnight. This year I was completely ravished by a little Aussie Sheppard mix that was gifted my youngest . So I guess that means the will work out....lol.
Another tradition broken this year is that of black eyed peas, greens, and ribs for the New Years Meal. It is supposed ensure a prosperous year. I must admit, I live a blessed life, but then I don't require much, so that isn't hard do. I am home this year though, back my beloved Upper Penninsula, so time for a new tradition, Pasties and a salad......that should bring me some Yooper style prosperity.
Of course, I read all the new Years predictions. First half of the year: dedication work and healing (sounds like my plans). Mid summer early fall: a series of wildly passionate short romances, supposedly all very wonderful (not much my style....honest). Once fall sets in: The fires of love ignite and I meet my one true love in a romance that ends in marriage (seriously? Me? I am beginning doubt how real these predictions are ). No I don't take any of that stuff seriously, it is all in good fun.
What do I hope for in 2022? I hope the world gets a chance heal and we cease think or hear of Covid and its many variants. I hope everyone has a beautiful new year.

Ahhh...... TRADITION!!

Every time I read that word I think of the play, 'Fiddler On The Roof'.

After many years in my youth going out to parties or having parties at our house, we smartened up and decided to bring the new year in cozily cuddling in front of the fire place, sipping wine, and talking about future plans.

I still do that... but as a single now; but as well as thinking about the future I also reminisce about years gone by.

Hugssss... Twilight!! The best is yet to come!!!!

New tradition - hanging out on SeniorFriendFinder in the Lobby (or one of the other rooms if anyone is there) until as close to midnight as I can stay awake. Even though I am in Virginia, I did manage to stay awake long enough to celebrate the New Year in St. John's, Newfoundland

Hope everyone has a great 2022

Life is not about weathering the storm - it is about learning to dance in the rain

Tooo funny!!!

I've been ringing in the new year for many years on Eastern Standard Time even though I'm in British Columbia. That's a three hour time difference~~

Happy 2022!!!!
