Good Bye 2013

I'm sitting here in front of the TV and the computer waiting for the midnight hour.  It really doesn't seem any different than any other night for me.  Except that tomorrow I will have to remember to date everything with the new year.

I had thought about getting some snack items and having a little party but decided I really didn't need all that junk or the calories, let alone all the cholesterol that would come with them.  So I did fix some crackers and cheese so I can say I had a little celebration.

Everyone I know either doesn't stay up to celebrate or they are out of town or have plans so the past few years I've been alone.  So it really isn't a big deal anymore.  I stay up late almost every night so tonight isn't really any different.  The only thing is I'm watching the celebrations on TV where I usually would be watching reruns of JAG or Dr. Quinn or maybe Pawn Stars, Counting Cars or American Pickers or that restoration show.  I know I live an exciting life.  LOL!

I only hope this next year will be a good year.  I have some plans and I'd like to see them completed and start a new way of life.  Got to get through all this cold weather of winter and then it will be a busy spring with cleaning and thinning out things as I will be downsizing to a smaller place, I hope, and will be closer to family.

It's been a great year with my family.  We've had family gatherings.  We've shared a lot of good times with a couple of bad times but we are strong and it just brings us all closer together.

We miss our loved one but we know he is with us and watching over us.  So as we end this year, I am looking forward with anticipation for a good year filled with happiness and hopefully healthier than this past one.

So I say Good bye 2013 and HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014.
