Can This Year End Already?

in life •  7 years ago 

This day has to be one of the worst of the year. It's been a pretty bad year but today has been particularly bad. The minutes are ticking by SLOWLY!!!

I don't care about midnight or watching a bunch of people on TV out in the freezing cold watching a ball drop. I'm just ready to start over with a new month and hope for the future.

Today has been cold....extremely cold. It's 19 degrees right now. The day has been gray and cloudy. I didn't sleep more than a few hours last night. My daughter and husband and I have all been sick. I had a rough night last night filled with bad news. Angering and confusing news. I'm calming down and am saying goodbye to the drama.

And Here Comes The Snow....You Have No Idea How Much I Need It

I didn't expect it to snow today. It wasn't in the forceast but it was a pleasant surprise.

And Then A Heavier Snow...

Snow brings me peace. It makes the world quiet and a beautiful white. Snow traps me in my house and keeps others in their own homes. When it snows it's like the world is at rest and for a moment everything is forced to stop.

I really needed snow today. I need my mind to be quite. I need this year to end so all the crappy memories can be further away from me so that over time most of them will have faded and dulled so that most of the details will be forgotten.

I wish I were in a better mood right now. I'd love to write a light piece about New Years and having fun but all I want is to go to bed. Maybe I'll DVR Dick Clark's New Years Rockin Eve watch the ball drop tomorrow.

((hugs)) That is all I have for now. That and an ear. Take what you need and then slip a few in your pocket for a rainy day.

It can only go up from here. XO tip!

Thank you! That's sweet. I'm better now. Just needed to sleep and recover.

Hopefully your recent increase in wealth has made the new year better!

Good point!

Very true. The world of crypto is sooo much fun right now. Happy New Year to you even though I'm late.

Hi @marxrab! You have received 0.1 SBD tip + 0.03 SBD @tipU from @dswigle :)

I discuss how horrible my year has been and all I get is spam? Let's celebrate new years by waving some flags.

I am right behind you!

I'm glad you got some peaceful snow.

As far as years have gone for me 2017 wasn't too bad.

I got to meet you and a bunch of other really cool people and I'm hoping in 2018 we will become even better friends.

Today will be over soon and then you'll be able to greet the new year with a fresh new look on things.

Glad you had a good year! It's taken a few days but things are better I think.

Sorry to hear of your situation, and here's hoping that 2018 rings in better times!!! It's been bitterly cold here in Central NJ too. About 10 degrees as I write this. Most of my family was sick over Christmas and I'm just glad to be feeling better now. All the best ...

Thank you. It's been strangely bitterly cold here as well. It's never this cold but we hit 3 degrees last night. I hope you keep warm and your family feels better.

I think you need to move north while I need to move south!

I dont give a rip for watching the ball lol. But I hope 2018 is a stellar year for you Marx!

Maybe we should trade homes for the winter! I'd love to see your weather.

I am really sorry to hear about your bad news!
If you need a vent...you know where to find me!
Snow does bring about calm...happy you got some when you needed it. <3

Thank you! I'll tell you about it sometime. I'm feeling better now. It was a rough new years.

Hugs, @marxrab...

I know words don't help much, but take all the hugs you need.

Thank you @aunt-deb!

I know the feeling @marxrab, let's just get this New Year started already. Had enough of last year's issues 😑

Hope that you and your family get feeling better soon!

Thank you! Glad we made it through the new year! Hope you have a great one.

I also love snow..my friend @marxrab.. Even though it's falling a little bit...
But I love snow because it's falling in silence and quiet... and cover everything with a beautiful white dress....
I wish you a Wonderful life @marxrab. Because you deserve this.

Thats a nice thought.."a white dress." A nice way of thinking of snow. I love it.

I feel your pain I feel like you do this year has been shit and the last two weeks the worse I'm going to bed to and hope tomorrow is better I wish the same for you tomorrow is another day, big hugs to you my friend 😊 ❤️

Hope you have a better year this year too! Big hugs.

Hugs from me to you! The new year will be better! You'll see!

Rabbit hugs back!
