Goodbye 2006

Well, it’s been a year.

As I promised myself, I’m at home tonight, reading, playing online, basically cocooning myself from the world.

2006 was admittedly more bad than good for me. I lost a lot. But it’s nothing compared to what others have lost. And it’s nothing that hasn’t been gone through before. So I persevere.

Tonight, I’m toasting the end of 2006 with a wine that’s darn fitting for this year:

Royal Bitch 2006

JV Wines Royal Bitch.

My resolutions for 2007?

  • To be open to any changes that come along
  • To break out of my shell a bit
  • To read more
  • To pay more attention to my online endeavors

Happy happy healthy 2007 to you and yours. Thank you for reading me, and I’ll see you next year!

edited to add: If I ever end up like Dick Clark, I’m giving you this advance directive to euthanize me. edited again Don’t euthanize me. Just don’t put me on television.

    Don’t forget about “To party more”… my personal favorite resolution and although a little harder to do in the winter – if there’s a will there’s a way.

    sorry–you said euthanize. It’s already in the works.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
