Today we celebrate the last year or say good-bye to a bad one. I feel that it is a time to do the latter. Although I had high expectations for 2018, I had a horrible fall early on and that lowered them. I would go on to have another bad fall about 6 months later, so I am glad to say goodbye to 2018. I also lost a longtime friend from when I was 19. He dated and later married a very dear friend and my roommate in my first apartment. I also had to give up my storage unit in NC because I realized I would never be able to afford to go get it (1000 miles away). All of my furniture and personal belongs gone now. I guess you could say my past. The manager did, however, send me all my old albums and loose photos and a wonderful memory, my dog’s ashes.
I did have some nice things happen during the year, I made new neighbor friends and adopted a 9 ½ year old Yorkie, Riley. He brings back good memories of when I was younger and had another Yorkie, Puddin. I also made my apartment "mine" with a few additional furnishings (most other furniture was given by neighbors when they replaced theirs.) I more or less put a personal touch on it. That is an ongoing process.
But I guess I would have to say that this year cannot be called a great one. But I have every intention of making 2019 memorable and great. Happy New Year, friends!
