Happy New Year, everyone. It's a brand-new year, a brand-new day, and a brand-new chance for me to have a better one this year, one day at a time. I feel like warmed over poop this morning. I didn't get much sleep last night, as all the neighbors were out till all hours setting off fireworks and making all the noise they possibly could. So, I will drink my coffee in a minute, have a visit with the world for a bit, and then lie back down for a nap. Maybe I can catch up at least some, and feel better, and then get a few things done today. Quietly. Just me and the cat, frazzled and blood-shot. Every day is a gift, even this one, so I will endeavor to persevere!
