Just like everyone else on the planet tonight, I'm thinking back over the past year and trying to assimilate the fact that "just like that" 2006 is just about over. If feels to me like the year just flew by. My year, as you know, has been dominated by yet another recurrence of Warren's cancer and many trips to NIH for treatments. I also turned 60 this fall and we celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary earlier this month. When I think ahead to 2007, I do so with some trepidation. I don't know what it will bring, but I know it will bring things both wanted and not wanted to me. Every year does.
Today I finished baking the last of the Christmas cookie dough that I'd made Christmas eve. I also made a pot of pinto beans and corn bread for dinner (my southern husband's favorite meal). Tomorrow I'll make one of my Pennsylvania Dutch family's New Year's favorites which is roast pork with sauerkraut. I've long ago forgotten what that is supposed to do for you if you have it on New Year's Day, but I'm sure its supposed to bring good luck. Also tomorrow I think I'll clean out the pantry and clean the oven. Its always good to start the year organized. It feels good while it lasts anyway.
As far as resolutions for 2007, I don't like to make them. I do want to wish you all a Happy New Year and a safe New Year's eve. Be well.
