Because otherwise you would cry!
Happy New Year, world! Happy New Year to us, also. As the man at Hale Center Theater stood up and began to count down--in a very loud voice--the last 10 seconds of 2010, Steve and I grabbed each other in a big hug and with a sigh a relief exclaimed, "We made it!" We made it through a very FULL year of some really big--I mean HUGE--ups, and some equally big---er, HUGE--downs. As the balloons were falling down from the ceiling, and theater goers on either side of us were blowing their noise makers, Steve and I gave each other a fist bump and told each other that 2011 was going to be quiet compared to 2010. HA, HA, HA! That joke was on us...not more than 12 hours later we learned that the car we let our daughter drive was impounded. Three days and $580.00 later we are now looking at each other, and truly having a good laugh (okay, and a good cry, too)!
