What do I love about
the first day of a new year? It’s a new beginning. A fresh start. Forget past
problems and mistakes and take a new road. Read a good book by the fire. Treat yourself
to eggnog and sherry.
Take long walks with the dog and enjoy the solitude of
the cold while others remain indoors.
Cook a stew and root vegetables and
inhale the heavenly scent that fills the house.
I’m looking forward to the treats and joy that
lie ahead.
