Still down memory lane but... finally starting my 3rd season!

Procrastinator!, you might be thinking. Ok dear readers, we are finally in 2007! It was a year of major changes in both mine and my parents' life. So here we go. After Christmas, they all headed back to Saint Louis, except me. I thought I have gone back with them but I didn't. I stayed either at my Grandma A's or Grandma J's, can't remember but probably stayed at Grandma A's because it was closer to Saint Louis, so it would be more convenient for Mom & Dad to pick me up after they all(all of them)returned from a wonderful trip to NYC for New Year's Eve at Times Square. I was really hurt, I wasn't invited to go along to see the Times Square Ball drop and the fireworks. Well, I watched it on TV and didn't need to stand 4 hours in the cold, freezing cold to see a minuscule ball dropping from afar as the clock ticked towards midnight. Instead, I saw it much closer than they did through the TV images and in the comfort of a warm home, wherever I was. Grandmas' homes are always a sweet and warm place to be. So I was ok and not so hurt anymore when I learned it was not all that, but they all recommend anyone to do it once in a lifetime. I don't think I'll ever want to do this, I'm not into suffering for a long time to get a little moment of joy for a short time. Let's get 3rd season started!!!
