2007, going, going......almost gone!

They say as you get older time goes by faster. Someone knows what they are talking about. It is true! So many things we thought would happen, didn't. And many things caught us off guard. Who knows what this new year will bring?! I guess life would be pretty boring if we knew what was coming. I had a couple of prayers answered this week. One was that it would snow Christmas Day! And it did!! But melted by evening. That's OK. It looked beautiful and made the day more special.
We've had very little snow so far. The picture above of Roxy and Chewy playing in the snow at our pond, is from last year. What we've had this year hasn't stuck. But Winter isn't over yet.
We've started one new year resolution; we worked out at the gym this morning. My back has been in bad shape, and then after getting rear-ended, it will take some work to get it back where it was. They tell me I just have to keep moving. It's the secret to staying younger longer. We all want that. But it takes work.

We've no great plans for this year, just taking it a step at a time. Jennifer, our youngest daughter and her family, may move east to Spokane. There is a chance we may follow. It's something we've talked about for a couple of years. I'm going with Bennie this month over there while he works. Aunt Cherri lives there so it's a good chance for us to visit and for me to look around. Definetly colder there, but DRIER! That's what I'm talking about!

We've almost finished Love and Respect. Excellent help for any couple. Anything good in this life takes work. And I'm not afraid of that. The benefits are priceless! Well my pot-roast is in the oven, and I'm off to make a lemon meringue pie for my sweetie. His favorite! I hope your New Year holds promise of better things for you and your families.
