mellicious: Happy New Year! (new year gif)
Goodness, where did the year go? I'm sure I will forever associate 2024 with the elections - nothing much happened to us personally that was all that memorable. (No hurricanes, etc!)  So good riddance, 2024, even though I have no reason to think 2025 will particularly be an improvement!

We do have plans to go out to eat tonight with my sister, her husband, her best friend and her husband (who I'm sure I've met years ago, since he's from our hometown and I know his older brother, etc., but I don't actually remember him) - but it'll be good, my sister is a talker and so is Kathy so if the conversation flags otherwise I'm sure they'll pick up the slack. And we're going to a really good Mexican restaurant so I'm anticipating fajitas. Then we'll probably go home and watch some NYE broadcast, that's what we usually do. Big excitement, right?

My new year's resolution, so far as I have one, is to be more organized. I forget things. I need to move some money around and I need to figure out Medicare (oh god, I'm old) and well, fun stuff like that. (Rob went over the weekend and bought me new tires, which is also something I'd been procrastinating about. Yay for husbands.)

Somebody was talking about New Year traditions, and the only one my family really had was black-eyed peas on New Year's Day, and I never remember in time. We went out to an early dinner at Cheddar's and they might have had them if I had thought to ask, but I didn't.

And I completely forgot about football until we got home. It's almost 8:00 (Central time) and Michigan just beat Alabama, we got to see the end of that, and so either Texas or Washington - whose game is just starting - will play them (in Houston!) next Monday. I had one smallish Longhorn sticker (I'm sure most people know vaguely what I mean, but like this) and I did remember to go put that on the new car. That's sort of a superstition, really, too, right? I feel like I would be being a bad Longhorn if I forgot that!

I almost decided to do a meme, but nah, I'll stop here. See y'all next year, Holidailies!
