The Road to Sixty – Day 171
New Years Eve
It was a busy day of Walmart – Kroger – Target getting soft drinks, water, breakfast food, hats, horns, confetti and streamers.
You see it’s New Years Eve and I am prepping for my 37 annual Lock-in.
Yes i am one of the ones that still do those all nighters with around 60+ teens and adults.
Why? You may ask.
- I decided if a child was not going to be at home on this day, I would give them a safe to be.
- If they were going to stay up ALL night, lets make it fun!
- It is fun being with the other chaperones!
- I get to be with some of the best young people in the world!
Yes, I will be tired and that’s okay… I will just look forward to the fun and the reflecting on the past year and setting my eye what is before me.
Till tomorrow…
