out with the old

good bye 2007.
it was a great year and a sad one all in one.

sad that i lost a grandfather that i was not very close to.
sad that my brother moved his kids to another state.
sad that the house moving bastard still owes us money.

good that fred, lauren and i have our health
good that we know are home owners with two paid off vehicles.
good that we have a pet we love.
good that i met some pretty amazing ladies in august.
good that i have great hopes for 2008.
good that WDW is only 5 months away.
and good that i have a best friend that i love with all my heart.

hats off to 2007. bring on 2008.

CHRISTMAS....fa la la la la la la la laaaaa.

good ness. i have finished all my shopping but forgot about a few things for lauren.

you ask her " lauren what do you want santa to bring you?"

she says" my november barbie." and that's it.
so i got that barbie and a v-tech handheld for the car trips and a few games. some special panties for her stocking and small stuff. she has everything a 6 year could want and more.
i am just blessed she has and not wants.
