Do you remember that show Home Improvement and the neighbor Wilson Wilson Jr. who would meet Tim the Tool Man at the fence, but never showed anything but his eyes? He was so funny. This group reminds me of those encounters... you get the wisdom, humor, and support from your DS...

I guess the closest thing there is to any tradition in my family has been going out to dinner on New Year's Eve. Not sure it will happen this year though since my Dad had to have back surgery and isn't really supposed to be going in the car other than to doctors appointments. My aunt has attempted in some years (when she hasn't hosted any holiday) to have the amily over for New Year's Day but when we've all just seen each other for Christmas (and since no one likes her cooking) we try to get out of that...one of the good things about Dad's surgery is getting out of that one this year!

I recently heard a great 2007 song the other day, "Falling Slowly" because it popped up in my newsfeed, accompanied by the sad news that the male singer, Glen Hansard, just died in a motorcycle accident. I learned that the song won an award and was featured in an indie movie called Once. I just watched it, and it's really good. They made it in 3 weeks on a $100,000 budget. It's streaming on...
