So, we have a new president! This is probably the most in tune I've been with politics ever. I was so moved by Pres. Obama's inuagural speech that I could have cried. I am hopeful that he will unite us and lead us to a better America. While we've come along way, we still have so far to go.
An update on me "resolutions"
It seems nothing is really different, maybe my attitude (sometimes I backslide) and my weight (I've lost 13 lbs so far) and I am getting a little more exercise (Thanks Flora). Other than that, the job is fine, the kids are fine, Daniel is well..... Daniel. For those of you that know us, know what that comment means.
I am reaching out to meet with old friends and look forward to talking about old times, as well as new ones.
Until next time......
That's about it. Until next time........

The 1st Thursday of the New Year
Well, I'm back into my routine: laundry, dishes, and general clean up. I've put all of my daughter's clean clothes away, that's a job in itself! I NEVER had the wardrobe this girl has.
Daniel finally gave Bear a bath, but now he's crying at the back door until he dries off a little bit.
The tree is down and Christmas has been packed away until December. Maybe we'll get a real tree this year. Probably not, I'm too cheap.
I haven't really thought about any new year's resolutions. I always make em, but then talk myself right out of them by the 2nd week of Jan. So, instead of drawing a line in the sand this year, I want to keep building on some things I decided before 2008 came to a close:
1. Continue to try and eat healthier.
2. Find a hobby or 2
3. Really reconnect with old freinds that have reached out to me via Facebook
4. Go to my 20 year class reunion (if we have one)
There are a few more things like, make sure Celia starts college in the fall, help Brandon finish strong this year, and not let others affect me so much. I do think these are the most important things to focus on.
So friends (especially you FC) I'll be leaning on you, laughing with you and looking forward to the year ahead with you.
Happy New Year!
