2012
In this new year I hope to find the days to be less short.
It seems the days are always too short for all the thoughts I want to think.
Too short for the one walk I really want to make (with Kathy).
Too short for all the "thank yous" to all the people that help make this world an exciting and beautiful place for Kathy and I.
It's not really a resolution (NOBODY likes those).
Clear intentions.
To get more out of each day.
Kathy has had a super fantastic time these last couple weeks,
with Aunt Tracy decorating our Christmas tree and making dinner,
Jessica making dinner, Guille making dinner, Kristi's wedding dinner...
Wait a minute, I sense a theme here.
I'm pretty sure there is more going on than just dinner!
The pain is still bad at times, but the time between bad is getting longer.
The girls (and Jerome, can't forget to acknowledge all the retirement time he has given to Kathy's days when we are all still working) have been truly timely, sensing when they are needed most.
Hey! Before you go thinking I was going to just breeze over Kristi's big day - What a fun night!
If you were there you know what I'm talking about!
What a way to bring in the new year!
It was crowded on the dance floor, but the partyers gave up space so I could carry Kathy to the floor.
It might've looked a bit awkward, with Kathy's legs dangling (I call it the "Pendulum Dance" or "Bell Ringers Delight").
With her boot on she can put a little weight on her right foot.
It helps that she is so little.
Not to take anything away from Sam & Kristi's night, it was so GREAT to be a part of it!
If they have what Kathy & I have, together, there is nothing that will be able to keep them down!
I would just like to say, in the year the world is predicted to end,
the future is looking brighter than the past!
Isn't that the way it's supposed to be?
