Happy New Year!

A day late, well sort of. It feels like today is New Year's Day because I watched the Rose Parade this morning. Did you know that if New Year's Day is on a Sunday, the Rose Parade will be held on Monday? I heard it was an agreement made a long time ago so as not to interfere with church attendance.

It was pouring rain today--the first time in fifty years that it rained on the parade. I felt bad for all of the performers. It must have been miserable and cold. Or maybe the adrenaline of performing kept everyone going. I hope no one got sick.

I hope the rain isn't a harbinger of the year to come. Maybe I should look at the rain as washing away all the stress of the past year.
