A few months ago my daughter-in-law told me I could not make any plans over New Year's. I usually go to my daughter's in Wisconsin to babysit. So I had conjured up several possibilities for this mystery gift:
1.) an extreme makeover where some supposed fashion expert takes one look at my wardrobe and tells me the 60's are over. I am forced to buy new clothes, get make up, get my hair done, etc. I hope this isn't the surprise.
2.) mission organization comes into my home, (....shutter....) , declutters and organizes everything.
3.) a trip to my sister's in NY. She has a big New Year's party every year, I've only been once. Her dgtr is home from the Army on leave, gets married in Feb in Hawaii where she is stationed.
4.) spa days locally.
Well, number 3 was the correct answer. I leave tomorrow afternoon for Buffalo. That is Buffalo, NY, not MN. Buffalo, MN is about an hour away.I hope the storms and delays in Chicago don't mess up the schedule too much. This will be my first visit back home since my ICU stay and near death. It will be good to see friends and cousins again. The New Year's party is January 1st in the late morning - early afternoon. I return on Thursday. I look forward to lots of photo taking and scrapbooking. I hope the little shop in the airport that sells beef on wick is open. No place else has beef on wick like Buffalo does.
