Celebrating a new year

As I’ve said on here before, New Year’s Eve is my least favorite holiday. I’m usually sad to note the passing of a year, and I don’t like the effect fireworks have on pets, wildlife, and vets with PTSD.

THIS year, however, I was quite happy to see 2020 end, for myself, my family, my friends, and the people of our nation and globally. We have so screwed up our health and our planet that it’s doubtful pandemics will go away. Hopefully, 2020 taught us something about reacting quickly, decisively, and NON-POLITICALLY to suffer far less than we have with COVID-19.

Here are a few scenes from New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. I wish all of you good luck, good health, prosperity, and abundance in all good things.

New Year’s Day.


Pork chops (except Tim brought his own steak because he doesn’t eat pork), black-eyed peas, boiled cabbage, boiled turnip greens, and cornbread. A traditional meal to celebrate the coming year.

      I chose to write write write write as events unfolded. My only answer to fear and despair is: create.
