One of my favorite New Years Eve memories- written December 31, 2013

one of my favorite New Years Eve memories

Dec 31, 1999
Y2K was on the way

I had to work in the morning to make sure the computers didn't freak out.
People were hoarding food, buying guns, taking all their money from the bank.

scary

Of course I thought everything would be ok....but hey I was a little worried.

Kids were at Grandma's and Grandpa's.
Scott and I were home alone.
We went into the backyard and laid in the hammock.
Wrapped in lots of layers of blankets
(it was Michigan !!)
and watched the stars.

Heard fireworks at midnight

Y2K--- we survived !!!

but lost my dad that year
moved to Tulsa

You never know what life is going to bring you

I think about all the people
all the adventures
all the ups and downs
since that quiet New Years Eve

Now I am curled up on the couch with my hubby and puppy
in Illinois
empty nest

Looking forward to all the people
all the adventures
more ups and downs
that I will experience
going forward from this quiet New Years Eve

Glad you are along for the ride

HAPPY NEW YEAR
HAPPY 2014
