As I compose this particular blog post, I am currently rolling up the road coming from Birmingham, Alabama, heading back to Chattanooga, Tennessee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know I&#8217;m a little early; where I am right now I&#8217;m in Central Time but I&#8217;m coming back to Eastern soon. By the time I get back into Chattanooga, it should be getting near midnight. Now, my celebrating may be a little premature. Nobody is promised tomorrow. However, with all things considered, the odds are stacked greatly in my favor to be able to see 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I get back to Chattanooga just before midnight, that gives me a little over an hour to get back across the mountain and get to Roseanna before midnight. And after all of the years that we have been married, I have never missed a new year&#8217;s day kiss from her. On January the 17th, we will have been married 34 years. That&#8217;s a lot of kisses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only thing that could really spoil my plans is if work calls me before I make it back to Chattanooga to give me another run. I&#8217;m really hoping that doesn&#8217;t happen. I&#8217;d like for tonight to be a slow night like all the other nights have been. That way I can get back across the mountain and continue my tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well that&#8217;s all for right now. I&#8217;ll update this particular post once I have more information to give you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Update 1: I made it home at 11:30 ct. It&#8217;s all over except for the kissing now!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s a little early but happy new year everyone!
