almost Happy New Year

i agree with Precious over in the Big Piney Woods. why the heck do we need a new year? granted, this last one was not without challenges, but as my Mom and the Dad say, we're all still here, walkin' and talkin' and able to cellybrate a new year, so how bad could it have been.

because my Mom is so borin', they are doin' exactly the same thing this year as they did last year. even the same food!!! in fact, i could put a link over to my post last year and just pretend it's this year and avoid the work of makin' a new post! but i won't do that. we'll take pictures and stuff and post it tomorrow.

so i hope everybody is safe tonight (drivin' and stuff. here in the Detroit area there is a stoopid custom of shootin' guns off at midnight. how dumb is that??) and i'll talk to you next year!!
