It Has Potential

The new year that is.  We are 4 days into the new year and so far it has been very good!  I did bring in the new year and with a bang I might add.  I had planned to bring in the new year with my friends that I mentioned before.  And I did but with a twist.  I love this couple!  About 3:30 on my way down the road we talked and she told me that they had been invited to a party and it was my call if we wanted to stay at their house with the porch party that we had planned or go to the party.  I told her I was fine with going to the party that I liked to meet new people and it would be fine if she was sure the host did not mind.  She assured me that it would be cool.  As we were leaving her house I asked what was the possibility of meeting my next husband or just someone to keep company with at this shindig.  Well the possibility was there.  I had a ball!!!!!!!!!!!!  I got to dance like I have not danced in years and it was great.  A good bit of shagging, the twist, and yes a few slow dances.  I did meet a gentleman that we will see but we have talked every day since and will probably go out next weekend when I am back down south.  There is a concert at a night club in Charlotte that I had wanted to go to on the 8th but could not find anyone to go with me but last night my son-in-law knew someone who had tickets and is going to babysit so my daughter and I are going to this concert Tues. night.  How cool is that?  Then today when I get home I got some news that I have been waiting for 6 months to see if it would be good or bad and it was way better than good.  So yes, the new year has started off great.  I am posting this and then may very well just go to bed.  I am excited about this year so far.  We never know what each day holds but I was deliriously happy to give my family some good news today.  Almost to the point of being giddy.  I am sensible enough to know that every day or even every week can't be like this but it is a damn good start.  TTYL
