Last day. So 2023 is almost over. Today Matt and I went shoe shopping and ended up purchasing matching sneakers. Will the trend continue? Afterward a gross meal at IHOP, where they no longer make grilled cheese sandwiches. Won't be going back.

Highlights of 2023:

- turning 60 in Pompeii

- getting engaged to Matt in Rome

- spending time with my Amish brother

- finishing a couple of books

- having an article accepted for American Ancestors magazine

- three successful parties

- healthier!

Lowlights of 2023:

- car being broken into (it truly is cursed)

- catching Covid

- work has been pretty dull

- Snowball's incessant meowing in the middle of the night

What will 2024 bring? Stay tuned...
