On New Year's Eve, I showed two Columbo movies starting at seven o"clock. In between we had supper. Later others joined us when we turned on the TV and watched the fireworks from the Sky Tower in Auckland and counted down to midnight. I was glad to see the back of 2018. It had been a hard year for me with selling the house and moving here and then the repairs being done. Then I had health issues with my eyes and teeth and with a misdiagnosis of ovarian cancer.
At 5pm on New year's Day, we held a barbecue. The Committee, bought the meat and bread and those who came paid $5. Wine was also provided. Jan Fraser's son and daughter in -law came to help and Francie accompanied Nellie. We had 19 people altogether. The weather was very pleasant for sitting outdoors and everyone enjoyed it. The two oldest residents of 90 and 94 years of age were very reluctant to go home.
