• 10… 9… 8… 7… 6…

  I’m ready for a new year, saying goodbye to the old.  Everything this week is about time.  How much do we have?  How we spend it? 

  Yesterday was Tucker’s birthday.  He’s 12.  Seems like only yesterday he was toddling outside to pour bubble bath in the fish pond. 

  The image retrieval system has been down at work for the past three days so my manager has been finding things to keep me “off the streets” until I can access the documents to do my regular job.  I’ve been really busy doing really tedious work.  So I’m praying that part comes in today!

  I have my little bottle of Frexinet (sp?) for my midnight celebration. 

  There was an accident with the shelf in the refrigerator a couple weeks ago.  Tucker was pushing something in with his foot (don’t ask, I can’t picture why he thought that was a good idea to start with) he slipped, he stepped down hard, and the plastic shelf in the bottom of the refrigerator got broken.  Since we moved into this apartment that shelf has been a problem.  It sloped forward so I had to be really careful what was placed on if because things were likely to tumble out.  Yesterday (there’s that time thing again) the maintenance guy replaced it with a new one.  The new one is sturdier and doesn’t slope.  Hallelujah!  If I’d known how much nicer it would be, I’d have had Tucker using his feet a long time back. 

  I’ll be counting down the hours of my last day of work in 2008.

  Time to go.

  Happy New Year Everyone.
