\"\"Zero Plans!<\/p>\n

I guess that is actually a plan. The pup doesn\u2019t like loud noises. I don\u2019t like driving with drunks.<\/p>\n

Honestly, Jerry and I had stopped going places on New Years Eve.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One party we were invited to, became not a nice party because of one guest who was always drunk and always abusive.<\/p>\n

In recent years Jerry & I had started declining the invitation.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the year, I got an invitation from this same couple to attend their Summer party. I declined that invitation because I wasn\u2019t up for dealing with that particular guest, and it felt a little too soon after Jerry\u2019s death to be attending a party. Okay maybe that\u2019s silly but the wound was still raw.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t receive an invitation to their usual New Years Eve celebration. That\u2019s just as well, because I didn\u2019t have to decline. Nor did I have to politely explain why I was declining the invitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I\u2019m 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\u2019t decided yet.<\/p>\n

I hope that this new year will be a much better one than the last couple of years. I\u2019m not holding my breath on the \u201cMuch\u201d part, but would happily settle for small improvements.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Happy New Years Eve.<\/p>\n

Have fun, be safe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
