This new year has a lot of anticipation, whether it is personal or maybe something random like a movie series or a plan for your garden.
What is something you are excited for this year?
I am excited for the garden and baseball season to begin again.
Hopefully going to more than two games this year with my dad,
catch up on the father daughter time I enjoy dearly.

Prompt of the Evening!

Honestly I don’t really care for the phrase ‘new year new me’.
That don’t mean HOWEVER that I am against challenging yourself to be better or continue being better than last year.
Or as the cool kids say ‘new years resolution’, so what is your New Years Resolution?
Maybe eating healthier?
Working out?
Picking up a new book series?
You get the idea.

On Tap Tonight!

See this is the Christmas Music I can dig, that and also Charlie Brown Christmas Music but that is universal.
I did my best not to copy last years Christmas playlist.
What music do you never get tired of?
It could be a group, a single Album, anything really.
The one Album I will never ever get tired of is Crematory’s album ‘Klagebilder”
It is completely in German, but it so beautiful.
