I hope all the sickos feel better today.
Working on it, but not there yet. Maybe a mimosa is exactly what I need -- lots of vitamin C in a mimosa!
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Happy New Year!
Calli, I'm so grateful to you and C. and A. for taking such good care of Javier. I miss him and you all, though this has been a wonderful vacation.
I woke up with a raging sore throat, which is a bummer, but since I spent a lot of my Long Island time around toddlers, I'm not that surprised. I just hope I don't pass it on. We're sitting around watching The Great British Baking Show and Terry's making migas, so things are pretty good. I'm not ready to reflect on my year yet, but maybe later today.
Jesse, I'm looking forward to reading the 50 good things.

Timelies. I fell asleep before midnight. Neither kid texted me (boo) and I got just over 8 hours of snooze time. Woke up in pain so both pain meds and anti-anxiety meds have been deployed. My docs office is open tomorrow. Need to see if my dentist is open tomorrow too do we can rule out any actual dental issues. Today will be drugs and sleep.
Happy F-ing New Year.

There were minimal fireworks here last night (or gunshots, thank heavens). Went to bed at 11, dog was completely unfazed.
I have dumped out the last of the open wine (January is dry), and now I need to clean the kitchen and go pick up a friend for our annual NY Day hike. Then visit Dad, who apparently was quite disoriented yesterday, sigh.
Suzi, I hope you feel better soon.

I know I've posted this before but I just came across it on Linda Holmes' list, so here's that awesome movie-dance vid that makes me happy and is a great way to start the year: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That was one of the things I just watched, too! So good. I'm also keeping Richie's convenience store number from Magic Mike XXL in an open tab.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Asleep before midnight, out of bed for good before ten. Now coffee and dessert for breakfast. Liking this. I need to reach out to the sleepover E went to and arrange a pick up time. Going to head a city over to meet friend for lunch.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy Day One of 2016! The hot toddy was deelish. We watched three episodes of Jessica Jones. My DH dozed through some of it, so every time he woke up, we'd pause and I'd fill him in on salient plot points. Yes, I am married to an old dude who falls asleep in a recliner while watching TV. Then we went to bed and managed to stay awake until midnight for a kiss. We were both asleep by 12:01.
Then we were awake again at 12:30 to comfort our poor poodle who was very scared of the fireworks. We got him asleep by 1am.
