for the new year. I am prepared to be here watching the countdown. Have to watch Kathy Griffin and that Anderson fellow. She's funny, he's pathetic. Acted like he has a pole somewhere. She loves to get under his skin and he deserves it. We have a new countdown here in Boise too. It is called The Potato Drop. It's the third year the potato commission will be hosting this. A big potato drops instead of the ball. It is going to be crazy downtown. I have made some resolutions and things I know I need to work on in the new year. I won't see my doctor until April or May probably for my annual visit. I hope my pre-diabetic condition is better and that I can change my attitude and eat more healthily. I am taking a med for anxiety and one for my liver. I need to treat my liver better and be nicer to my body. It is hard living here the way that I am. I am trying to remember that the way the old year goes out is probably the way the new year will come in. My daughter got woke up early so she is grouchy. I hope she isn't going to be grouchy all year. Ugh! I want to thank Mylot admin. for all they have given us and for choosing to open this site up again. And, I want to thank all my fellow members that I follow and that follow me for their help and interaction this last six months or so. Hope next year is even better for us all. My granddaughter says that little Brock is walking with the help of mom. He is only six weeks old. So everything is good on that front. She wants to take me camping with them this summer so I need to get in some kind of shape for that. Happy New Year everyone! So how does your new year look? Image courtesy of Flickr Commons

We are going to watch the Michigan State football game this evening. My son is a grad student there. And then a movie and that's it. Safe and sound with the doors locked.

@LoriAMoore I think it's a championship game or a pre championship game. I don't watch much college football so I'm not sure how it all works.
