We started the last day of 2023 with a lovely sunrise and as we close out 123123, we wish for a happy new year for everyone. We had a little celebration bash for my dad’s 96th birthday. We showed up with Mom, armed with chocolate cake, snickerdoodles, cards and mostly importantly a bottle of hooch. He enjoyed the visit, had a few snoozes, had a sip of his favourite brandy (he hasn’t had any for a while) and declared, “Wow! This is powerful stuff!” I reminded him how old he is. He said, “Good god. Amazing. Well, what the hell.” We ended the afternoon with a visit to our friend Todd’s mom in RUH, and took a moment to enjoy the view from the hospital parkade. Hang in there, Dad and Maxine, and all the best to all in 2024. Let’s think happy thoughts!
Happy New Year, Happy Birthday, Dad
