good riddance 2007

2007 was not my best year. True, some very good things happened this year, but in the end, they couldn't balance out against the worst of it. By December, I had enough--I sleep-walked through the whole month. I let the fifth anniversary of the blog go by unrecognized because it was also my mother's birthday. I spent the month dreading Christmas because it would be my first without her. Actually, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, we all made it through OK.

She's been gone six months now, and it's time I really get back to work and get on with my life. I can't let her death stop me from living.

I'm not sure that getting on with life will lead to more frequent blogging. Thanks to everyone who stops by despite my long absences and lame posts.

Let's all have a good 2008.
