For some, this evening will be a night of celebration, partying, and ringing in the new year with a bang. I don&#8217;t know if I have ever been all that excited about ringing it in. I remember as a kid feeling a bit more of the anticipation, but truth be told, I think it was more about the excitement of getting to stay up really late, watch tv, and eat popcorn and feeling rather indulgent and rebellious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Funny how we age, and those intense feelings dim down dramatically. I don&#8217;t have any of those feelings or   even desires to see or ring anything new in. It&#8217;s all another day, with nary a noticeable difference except the turning of the calendar page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This coming year though will be different. A lot of changes, a lot of uncertainties, a lot of anxiousness. Actually, it has started already, and I am at the point of where looking to the New Year, I just hope to survive it mentally and physically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I guess it&#8217;s just a case of hope for the best and expect the worst. Which really does sound like any other day doesn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy New Year a day early in case I party\/nap too hard and miss it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, here we are, the last day of 2023.
