Hiya Beachie!

I too hope that 2016 is a better year for America and it starts in November.

Son is coming over today for breakfast and hanging out.

I personally will be in dreamland when 2016 rolls in. My party hardy days are over.

How about you and hubby? Big plans?

It's cold, brrr, about 5 degrees outside this morning so no melting snow for awhile.

Happy New Year, Beachie!
