Welcome To 2020!

Happy New Year, everyone!

This is how Tad decided to ring in the Roaring 20’s.  We had planned to let the kids stay up.  Thumper ditched us all at about 11 pm and tucked himself into bed (fortunately, he had already gotten his teeth brushed and his jammies on).  Rerun hung in there to watch the fireworks show on TV – which was canceled in Seattle due to high winds.  As soon as the substitute “light show” was done, he took himself to bed.  Tad and Ane were still going strong, but we shooed them off once they had drunk most of the sparkling lemonade that I had picked up at Trader Joe’s (they had no sparkling grape juice this year!  What gives??) and sent them to bed at about 1 am.

Then everyone slept in, and once people started moving, I made waffles in the toaster oven for breakfast.  Rerun was not happy about this.

Rerun: “I wish we were having pancakes.”

Me: “You’ll live.”

Rerun: “But we haven’t had pancakes this year!”

Me: “IT’S JANUARY FIRST.”

Rerun: “SO I’M RIGHT.”

Happy New Year, indeed.
