Happy New Years Eve

Zero Plans!

I guess that is actually a plan. The pup doesn’t like loud noises. I don’t like driving with drunks.

Honestly, Jerry and I had stopped going places on New Years Eve. 

One party we were invited to, became not a nice party because of one guest who was always drunk and always abusive.

In recent years Jerry & I had started declining the invitation.

Earlier in the year, I got an invitation from this same couple to attend their Summer party. I declined that invitation because I wasn’t up for dealing with that particular guest, and it felt a little too soon after Jerry’s death to be attending a party. Okay maybe that’s silly but the wound was still raw.

I didn’t receive an invitation to their usual New Years Eve celebration. That’s just as well, because I didn’t have to decline. Nor did I have to politely explain why I was declining the invitation. 

I’m looking forward to making dinner, listening to some music, and probably keeping to a mostly normal bed time. Although, I might turn on the HAM Radio and listen to the New Year being rung in old school. I haven’t decided yet.

I hope that this new year will be a much better one than the last couple of years. I’m not holding my breath on the “Much” part, but would happily settle for small improvements. 

Happy New Years Eve.

Have fun, be safe.
