Happy New Years Eve.. Eve… lol
Okay, seriously, though… do you have plans for New years, or are you winging it, or are you like me and going to be home?
I remember as a kid being excited to stay up till midnight and celebrating.
I remember as a teen being annoyed, I couldn’t go to a cool party, thankful the next day when I heard stories, but still.
I remember my early 20s and being excited about the new year and maybe going to a bar or hanging with my husband. Or before my hubby, hanging with Di one year and watching cheese mits and John Tesh. Then, at 12:30, we went to our favorite bar, and everyone asked where we were. At 250 dollars to get in, we weren’t going.
In my 30s, I had kids, and they were like me and excited to be able to stay up.
In my 40s, it is still about my kids and them being happy to stay up. Lol, but me, I am happy if I am still awake.
New Years is a time like any other. It’s a chance at a new beginning. It’s a time to reflect and decide on where you want to go with your life. It’s a day to smile. To be open to all the positive energy out there. A time to close the door on the negative.
Yes, I know all this is easy to say, but doing it is so hard. But every year, I try. This year, I did some things that went with that ideal. Next year, I see me doing even more. I hope you, my wonderful readers, follow me still on my new year, new journey. I can’t wait to read your comments on my wild ride. I hope you are all ready for more openness and honesty.
My annoyance for the day… my jeep has one of those key fob key things. Can’t just get a simple key… no, you have to get the special key. At the dealership, it is 430 plus tax. Service tells me to just get one on Amazon. I go to the parts department to get the part number, and the guy behind the counter starts telling me how they rarely ever work and I need to buy from them. The key alone is 270, and the programing is 160. He also proceeded to tell me that since my key fob is going that my car will stop starting. My key fob hasn’t worked for going on 3 or more months. The last parts and service guys I talked to said, “Yeah, it will still work with just the key.” On top of everything else, I feel like he lied to me and doesn’t know anything.
My smile for the day… besides my family, of course, is writing the post today. I wrote a couple of others too today, but this one, this one was a beginning and a warning of the future. It is a good warning to keep a look out for my crazy mind at work. I do hope you will love it, or at least not hate it. 😉
I hope you enjoyed the mini book tonight. I had to write it early so I wouldn’t fall asleep again while writing. Which was very close to happening. Kitt ☺️
