A Good 2013

All set to marguerita in my humble abode last night, I was more than ready.  A lasagna dinner had been completed and even a small glass of wine.  The abode had been vacuumed and rearranged a bit.  Yes, I still do that but to a lesser extent now.  Admiring a swatch for the new wicker chair cushions due to arrive in the next month there was a knock at my door.

The peephole didn't realize anything but a female face.  I opened the door and to my delightful surprise, a new young friend stopped by.

"Why aren't you downstairs in the Community Room?  Everyone is there."

"Oh, I thought maybe it was a private party."

"No way, there are twenty plus people, get yourself down there, girl."

We chatted for twenty minutes and I followed her downstairs.  Everyone...every one asked me where I had been.  People came up and asked me what I wanted to eat or drink.  Even sat down by me.  Before long, everyone got into the conversation.  It was more than cute. They were concerned.  I liked that.

Can I say I was more than shocked?  The people who registered by car told me otherwise since  I had re  Just when I thought I had finished transferring all the legal schmegal stuff this month.  They told me because I renewed within three months of  birthday month when these would to expire, these items would be good for fifteen months.  It did seem odd. I inquired in person and on the phone no less than three times to ensure the clerk was correct.  But states vary so I took her at her word.

My new friend will drive me to the town hall early tomorrow morning.  It's going to be a good 2013.  I already feel it.
