Year in review

All in all this was not the greatest of years. I won't be sorry to see the end of 2009. Losing a family member usually does throw a monkey wrench into the mix. I've got to hope that brighter days are ahead. My deceased brother's widow has already moved on to a new relationship and the kids don't seem to be overly traumatized so I should get on with it, too, I guess. Even if he wasn't a shining star in the universe he was still part of the family and is missed by me.

We were invited to my daughter's house for a New Year's party this year. I think we're going but don't know how late we'll stay. Guess I should come up with something to take along. Hmmmmmmmmm!
