We have all had good years and bad years, but I don’t remember a year when so many people have expressed that it was a bad year.  However, I don’t remember much of anything so it may have happened every year for all I know.  I also don’t really care about that many people and maybe I just never asked.  Alright, the truth is I’ve never had to scroll through so much 2016 negativity on Facebook, that’s pretty much what happened.  But seriously, some man started a Go Fund Me page to keep Betty White safe, what the heck??  It’s like this past week everyone just ran to their fallout shelter and won’t come out again until midnight.  “Ok everyone, 2016 is gone, it’s safe to come out.”  It will be like the scene from the movie Twister when the tornado is gone and the bulkhead doors in the ground all start to open and everyone sees the sun, except it will be midnight and it will be dark but let’s just go with the sunny image (already feeling more positive).

Everyone must admit this year has been a very strange year.  It has just felt weird, almost as if we were being controlled by aliens or some higher power.  All the notable deaths, terrorism, and let’s not forget the results of the election.  If that isn’t proof of a mind controlling higher power then I don’t know what is. It has also been a very emotional year for many including myself.  As if we are all part of an alien video game where they knock you down, see you start to get back up, giggle, and zap you back down.  “Almost missed that one, haha.”  If I didn’t have Facebook I would just assume that it might be time to have me committed, but this time it isn’t just me.  Yay, there was a positive in 2016.  Honestly, the only thing that has kept me going this year is that for some strange reason radio stations have been playing “Stacy’s mom has got it going on” more than it has in recent years and in my version the song is “Sara’s mom has got it going on” and that little frequent reminder is definitely uplifting.  If it wasn’t for that and the fact that I’m allergic to cats, I would probably be a crazy cat lady by now.

I never make New Year’s resolutions but this year I actually am, I am hoping that once the force field comes down I will be able to change it up a little.  I weigh more than I ever have, my liver is like a wet sponge, I look like I’m 20 years older and my idea of exercise is squatting down to pick up the cookie I dropped fast enough so it stays in the five second rule.   I am ready to make some positive changes in my life, go from sexy to off the charts sexy.  Only look ten years older.  Keep my talking to myself to a one-sided conversation.  I still don’t want to talk to people but I am hoping to read positive posts on Facebook this year. So 2016 can kiss my white Irish butt (there’s plenty of it so it can’t miss).  Here’s to a great 2017!  Happy New Year!
