Happy New Year!

Well, here's (almost) the whole family wishing you all a very Happy New Year.  What you don't see is me (with a wavering smile?) and the damn dog puking on the rug (TWICE).  A fitting end to 2017 -- the absolute worst year of my entire life.

However, onward and upward.  I am determined to welcome 2018 with a demented big grin, no matter what.  Happy New Year, everyone.  I hope the new year is a whole lot better and kinder to all.  xox
