hi there, just sat down, had a toasted bagel and some hot tea, some tylenol and i'm doing o.k! actually, i was up early, got the laundry started(the sheets smelled ,like a left over new year's eve !)

i danced WAY too much( i can't do any organized steps but i can fast dance still!)
i drank too much for me, but i stopped hours before i had to drive home (i am the designated driver almost always unless there is ice or snow, then i am absolutely useless as i panic at the first few flakes)i ate cheesecake and brownies( when in doubt, eat dessert first, my motto!)

for years now, been going to this little club for new year's eve. every midnight, i stop for a few seconds among all the kisses and hugs and noise and wish a happy new year to those i am not with and those that need a good year the most.

so far, every year has been as the last, some good, more bad, but still, livable.
perhaps, this will be the year when joy comes knocking on many doors, maybe even mine. blessings on you and yours. s
