I went to bed at 9PM. Woke up at 10PM and stared out the window until much later, then wrestled the covers a while. Rearranged pillows. Got up, walked downstairs. Looked out the window.
The New Year didn't look any different at 2AM than it did the day before. But at least there wasn't fog.
I went back and beat my pillows up a bit and pushed around the blankets much to Charlie's disdain and sighs. He sleeps on a corner of the bed in his own little nest.
Welcome 2025 your start sucked.
By 4AM I made decafe coffee and decided to go through my files for December and back up other photo files.

Keep
Hmm
Delete...and so forth.
By 5AM I got up and started stretching. Either a pressure system was moving through or suddenly I aged a gazillion years over night. Everything hurt from head to toe.
Maybe I'd just skip 2025 all together.
Charlie watched me sleepily and went to his nest on the couch. Big help he was!
I thought I'd check into my mileage for the year of 2024. I was surprised. I did reach a pretty cool milestone. 1,070 miles hiked since January 1st 2024. I had no intention of reaching any goal other than just having fun keeping track.
Maybe I'd better get my oil checked for this year.
After another morning walk and some other Mobility work, my body felt much better.
So I guess 2025 may not be so bad after all.
I think I'll go do some Loopy Yarn work today and perhaps a nap.
Happy New Year Day.
A shot from last year.
