A friend on FB threw the question out to his world, having lost his partner of 20ish years: What is everyone doing for New Years Eve? Party? Family gathering? Champagne at midnight? Me? Probably in bed by 8, scrolling for a fun movie. No one to kiss at midnight.
Taj MuttHall responds -- I'll be doing something useful like washing dishes or OH NO donating to charities at the last minute, snuggle with Zorro a bit but no kissing because COAT BEING BLOWN WHY?! when winter is just starting?!, in bed I hope by 8 and hope the fireworks noise isn't enough to keep me or Zorro up. Last year he hid in my closet and seemed fine there. Thank goodness I don't have Chip's terror to deal with any more. [But I miss him none the less]
Wishing you and the world at large a happy 2024.
(How can it possibly be that year?! I still keep referring to, for example, six years ago as 2007. Or sometimes 1997. Too many years to keep track of )

1988 was just yesterday. I remember carpet like that in the kitchen too.
ReplyDeleteInteresting (whomever you are)--I'd h ave assumed this was vinyl flooring rather than carpet, but it was a lonnng time ago in a house that I visited only once to my recollection.
DeleteYes, 1988 WAS just yesterday, pretty sure.
