Goodbye and Good Riddance 2017: That'll put marzipan in your pie plate, Bingo!  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.

Go away, 2017. You have a lot to turn around, 2018. Bring it on.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The "we" in the previous paragraph is me and my fiance

Good news! Let's highlight the rare examples of that in 2017.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Lovely backyard and Ryan is such a handsome and adorable young man!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ryan is definitely both handsome and adorable--that's a very good looking family, in fact. The back yard looks very spruce and ready for gardening.

Good to see you, Mr. Tea!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

billytea, Ryan is as adorable as ever! I'm glad your family is doing so well, and I hope you're able to be around here more in 2018!

Actually, I hope I'm able to be around here more in 2018. It's been a rough year, emotionally.

Debetesse, just in case I didn't say it before, Congratulations! on both house and fiance!

Because books.

I'm really late saying thank you to my wonderful Secret Santa (who turned out to be Suzi!) for additional gifts! Two fantastic pairs of elephant earrings, which I love, and the most adorable Ornamonster, which went directly on the tree, plus another ornament, and candy! You spoiled me, lady. And you said something else is on the way! Thank you so much for the thoughtful and merry gifts in a very blah season. ♥

My gift to my Santee is on the way, finally, and I apologize again for how late it is.
