Happy New Year!

We have welcomed another new year - 2008. The time has just flown by since the big issue of turning over to the year of 2000. Nothing happened and we are still going about our business.

Dad and I had a quiet new year as we went to bed very early. This was a first for us, to miss bringing in New Year's. We both are fighting off colds. I seem to have it a little worse than he but we are both taking the same medicine. We haven't gone to the doctor's as it isn't that bad. We will keep track of things as we were around some sick kids and adults on the plane and for our visits.

Chester was glad to see us after we had returned. It has been hard to give him the attention he wants when you aren't feeling good. We will work through it ...

We haven't taken our tree and decorations down yet. It is one of those chores that require energy which we don't have right now. By this weekend, by this weekend. We will do the deed. It is a good thing we don't have a real tree and have to clean up needles.

We are expecting three major rain storms starting Thursday. It might be 5-7 inches. I don't think it will be on us but more into the desert region. Rain will be good as things are so dry around here.

I guess you always get "extra" gifts of colds and sickness after coming for a visit...sorry!:(

Abby, we had felt fine until we got home. It could have been from anyone. There were people on the plane sneezing and blowing their noses. I had a person sitting right next to me that had been blowing his nose. We were not complaining as it happens. We really had a great time visiting. We were sorry it was so short.
