Time to bid farewell to 2018. Hope it was a good year for all, always some ups and downs, hopefully more ups than downs. Whatever, 2019 is just hours away…

Rainfall over the past 24 to 48 hours in the 1/4 to 1/2 inch range at the Curtis Brown Airport, National Weather Service reporting station in Elizabethtown, NC.
Next couple of days may not be the best for outside activities, especially on Tuesday and Wednesday. Good chance of rain, and windy today with mild temps. 67 is expected high for today and slightly cooler tonight with lows in the low 60s. New Years day in the low to mid 70s with a good chance of showers and thunderstorms and winds gusts up to 20 mph.

Last test of 2018……
Be safe if you plan an outing to celebrate the New Year. For us senior citizens, just hope to stay awake till the celebration begins on TV…We usually drop before the ‘ball’ does…

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems. But it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
Life’s like a bird. It’s pretty cute until it poops on your head.
