A Reflective Look Back...

I've been thinking about 2005 and while there have been a share of good things which have happened I have to admit I will be glad to see the backend of it in a few days. First my best friend, Sylvia's parents both went through horrible health problems. I wouldn't wish these problems upon my most hated enemy. Then both my parents went through health problems, then Emmett's dad and then myself. Yeesh, what a year. Then mixed into the equation I had to deal with people (who I thought were friends) who turned out to be really odd. I didn't rock the boat with them. I normally do not lay down in submission but believe me it wasn't worth the hassle. Sometimes in life the less headaches you have the better. I have more important issues/things/people in my life. I also rather drop it and move forward. I knew with these people I wouldn't be allowed that.

I am anxiously awaiting 2006 and what lies ahead. A time of regeneration, new beginnings, new paths, wonderful healing, new adventures, new Who tours, reconnecting with Who people, and new, wonderful memories to create.

While I do thank 2005 for giving me the memories of my son's 1st birthday, his first steps, his first teeth etc... I, at the same time will gladly hold open the door and kick the butt of 2005 out as quickly as it came in.

With that said, I hope all of you have a very Happy New Year and I shall raise a glass and toast with you to the new as the clock rings midnight.

Happy Christmas!

It's only 4:18 p.m. EST here. Emmett has gone out to pick up our order of sushi, our Christmas eve treat. My 20 month old son is sitting watching Thomas the Tank engine and I can't wait to see the expression on his face tomorrow morning when he sees the gifts under the tree.

November has been a tough month health wise for me so I am looking forward to 2006 and healing. I look forward to the Who touring again and the chance to see Simon Townshend's Casbah Club perform would be an added bonus. I have been wanting to see Simon performing his own material for ages. He is one of my favourite singers. Amazing lyrics that touch the soul.

I want to wish all of you who take the time to read my blog a very Merry Christmas and Happy, healthy, joyous 2006. Peace and love to you all.
