The Beginning is Here
Yesterday was the last day of the year, so as far as the year goes, it begins here. Not that I put much into the whole new year thing. Some people do, as if by some kind of magic the changing of the date will somehow bring in changes, but I have been around the block a few times now and know better.

I do realize that there will be significant changes this year, like every year. But will they be better, or will they be worse. I take each day as it's given and try to make the most of it, and of course, I hope for the best.

Did I make any resolutions? Of course not. I can't make any because years ago I resolved not to make resolutions and I'm still keeping that one. I do believe in setting goals, but I don't see any reason to pick one day over another. If you do make a New Year's resolution, I wish you the best in keeping it.

How is the new year starting for me? It's also the start of a polar vortex bringing frigid air down from the arctic. We are in the teens today and it's dropping; for the next week or so we will be doing well to see single digits during the day and we will drop below zero at night (Fahrenheit). But that's normal for Minnesota so I guess the year is starting out normal. And, normal is good.
