Before you flip your calendar
To start a New Year bright,
Reflect for just a moment on
The year that ends tonight.
Each joy and every heartache
Has been etched into your heart,
But in a few short hours you
May make a brand new start.
As you review the days and weeks
That simply seemed to fly,
Would you say fortune smiled on you
Or did she pass you by?
Since it's not wise to dwell upon
Those days that made you cry,
The thing to do is set your sights
And aim right at the sky.
Forget those tears and sorrow
As you bid the old, "Adieu,"
And welcome in the New Year,
It's dawning ... just for you!

GOODMORNING !
The grand finale of another year ! For me it was a pretty good one, compared to some I’ve had. Of course I’ve had better ones too, haven’t we all. The beauty of age is that they all seem to blend together…and that’s probably a good thing.
I can only encourage you to be happy every day, to hug and love those close to you, to kiss any bad thoughts goodbye and keep only the good ones. Life is way to short to linger , for even a moment , on anything negative.
Some people may think I’m unrealistic, but I can tell you it’s a lot more fun to live this way. There was a old song that said something about ‘Let the sunshine in , Face it with a grin, Open up your heart and let the SUNSHINE IN.' That’s one for my internet search, I’ll have to find the rest of those words to share with you. Meanwhile, I’ll be here with a ***BIG SMILE*** each and everyday the good Lord gives me.
May Saturday evening, December 31st, find you together with your beloved family and cherished friends, ushering in the New Year. You will find the food better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper and the pleasure much more fulfilling than anything else you might ordinarily do that night

I remember a song from the sixties my parents played all the time called well sing in the sunshine and we laugh every day. Been along time since I heard that song
That sounds like the song the Flinstones kids sing on one of the boys VHS tapes...
Happy New Year and have a blessed 2006!!!!
