2015, Day 1
Fortunately, I did not imbibe enough to require an ice-pack on my head this morning, though I did have fun. My wife and I sat and talked into the late evening about our hopes and dreams for the coming year. We ate baba ghanoush and hummus on pitas. I drank wine and beer, while she drank soda (she rarely drinks alcohol). The talk and the laughter was wonderful, relaxing, fun, and very, very enjoyable. Then we watched the New York festivities for about 15 minutes prior to midnight. After the stroke of midnight, we turned off the television again, and talked more and were happy and peaceful together.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
I went to bed at 7:30...
ReplyDeleteSounds like you and your wife got a good start on the new year. I spent the first part of the evening helping serve dinner at our church's homeless shelter. Came home feeling grateful for our lovely home, a loving spouse, a playful dog, a cuddly cat. Too sleepy to watch the New Year in.
ReplyDeleteThe best to you and yours in 2015.
