Happy New Year to all!

Begin today as you would have the rest of your days go. 

My mantra for this year.

So, I began my morning with my exercises for my bad hip & arms.  I do have to admit that we slept in this morning.  We didn't stay up to greet the new year, but were later than usual and I think all of that driving lately has caught up with me.

We're having black-eye peas & ham for supper (we're not from the south, but we figure a dish that good should be shared with all at the New Year).  Some vegetables & dip, plus cornbread (for me) and rolls for 'tP' will round out the meal.

We've already put Christmas "to bed" for this year, but for the lights on the house.  They have to wait until the snow melts & 'tP' can get the ladder out to get them down.  I packed up all the ornaments & trimmings and he put the boxes up in the attic for another year.

I did a bit of clean-up & we are off to a clean, shiny New Year.  New start - hopeful new beginnings for some of the things that need to happen in our old world, too.
