Happy New Year, 2024.

 Most believe that we start off with a clean slate, each year on January 1st. I wonder what all this year will bring.

I do know that we all will attend Corinne and Bryan’s wedding at the end April. I got tickets for the Ren Faire for me, Mom, and Sharon. We’ll attend the Faire sometime in April. 

If good fortune holds, Liz and Alex may become parents in 2024. Fingers crossed. I had long ago let go of the possibility of being a grandparent. However, it is what they truly want, and I am happy to look forward to it. Life will change. You never know what unforeseen things will change your life. I am hopeful that the previously unforeseen things will all be good in 2024. 

Mom is still with us, at 92, and we gathered to celebrate at a birthday dinner in December. I’m grateful to still have her, as I know that not all are so lucky. I hope she will meet her second great child. I hope to live 2 or 3 decades more, so that my grandchild will know me. I still can’t believe that I’ll be one year shy of 70, in March. 

To unforeseen things that are good. Cheers!
