On New Year's Eve we attended the 9.30 pm fireworks show at a local cricket /football ground. You will see in the photos, that Australian Rules football uses four goal posts. The fireworks raise money for the Club each year, and they are excellent. We got there a few hours early to enjoy a picnic dinner, including sweet foods and soft drink I was going to give up next day, to go on a diet. I am on a competition with friend Margo to lose the most weight, and I am going to win!! There were many entertainments for the kids, including music, dancing and a jumping castle, henna tattoos etc.
The pics were taken early, the grounds filled up with people by nightfall. Included is a pic of one of our dogs from earlier that day.

What am I afraid of in 2017? Probably a worldwide recession, worse than the last one. Wars. Sickness in my family. Losing my elderly Dad.
What would I like to happen in 2017? Well I'm not a beauty queen contestant, (sorry, Donald, ) but I'd have to start with Peace on Earth. Let the refugees get to go home and rebuild, with the rest of us helping as much as we can. Some cures for disease would be great too.
I'd like to sell my books. That would involve finishing them. Play piano more.
For my family I would like good health and enough money to pay the bills and some left over.
For my friends, I would hope in 2017 that you allow me to keep loving you, because I think you're awesome. Thankyou for being there in 2016, friends and family, I couldn't have lasted without you. I think for alot of people it was a tough year. Let's look forward.
God help us all in 2017.
