I have been slow to post thinking through the events of 2007 and the prospects of 2008. And even as I write this it is hard to do more than just live in the moment. Christmas was good this year because we just enjoyed it. There wasn't the usual reminiscing and projecting about the future. So I guess even though New Years Day is traditionally a day of projecting and resolving I am just going to enjoy it minute by minute. That is not to say I have not mentally made the usual list of resolutions this year because I have. I will be exercising more regularly and eating better and I will get some of my accumulated "stuff" more organized but I will also take time to smell the roses. I will make an effort to spent time with friends and family and not stress out if things get left undone because of it. I have never been up for housekeeper of the year award anyway so what is one more year of waiting.
OK , thinking too far into the future already. Lets think football! Today we root for the Big Ten Conference. I will watch the Rose Parade because that is on my list of things to see in person someday. HGTV is a great channel to watch the parade on because they really talk about the construction of the floats. They point out what is used for the different textures and colors. Since Steve has said the next time Ohio State goes to the Rose Bowl we will go I am looking forward to seeing it live soon. Thought we might be there this year but I guess having Ohio State in the Championship game isn't so bad either.
The year 2007 is over. We got through it and whatever 2008 brings we will handle with the help of our family and friends. Thank you, thank you! May you and yours be safe and healthy as we head into this new year.
