Hello 2015!

How did you ring in the new year?

I ate Mexican food and played Just Dance on the wii. Dave and I created a list which I entitled ‘Dave and Lindsay’s 2015 List of Awesome.’ He thinks the title needs works; I think it describes the hope for 2015 perfectly: awesome. We created a list of things we want to do in the new year (camp, take a trip, try new recipes, learn to play chess, etc.). Then we watched the latest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movie and I fell asleep, waking only briefly to say happy new year at midnight and then falling back asleep. #partyhard

Yesterday, as I reflected on the year past and the year to come, I pulled out my found poetry supplies from the journeying class I took a couple summers ago on Madeline Island. And, as one would say about found poetry, a poem found me. Here is my new year poem:

Happy New Year, friends! Here’s hoping it’s the best one yet.
