I remember December 31st, 1999 clear as a bell. Lori and I were on a beach in Seattle with a huge bonfire. People brought things they wanted to purge from their lives and threw them into the fire. Hard to believe that was 22 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In so many ways, society has regressed. I won&#8217;t go into it but anyone with half a brain can see things are not better now than they were then. That&#8217;s too bad. Hopefully we can turn things around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last night Jag came home from Boulder as he changed his plans. He stopped in about 8:30 to change clothes and then headed out to a party in Eagle. Sometime after midnight, he showed up with a couple girls who are sleeping downstairs now. I think it&#8217;s Lexi and someone else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I did wake up at 11:56 so I woke Lori when the clock stuck midnight. Then it was back to sleep. Tom texted so he must have made it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yesterday the Christmas stuff came down. We brought Dixie up and she hung out and looked at each ornament. A few times she asked why we were taking down the tree with Christmas coming up soon. Poor girl. She had a rough day. She&#8217;s now at the point where she&#8217;ll ask you something and then ask you the same thing a couple minutes later. She&#8217;ll be 92 in April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today Lori and I are headed to the gym again. We&#8217;re pretty committed to getting in better shape. It&#8217;s our thing, ha. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s all hope and pray that 2023 is better than 2022. All we really need is for common sense to make a comeback. Everyone of us plays a part. If we all just do the right thing and keep pushing forward, we&#8217;ll be ok. Cheers, Happy 2023 and God Bless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, 2023 sounds like some movie.
