The new journal is begun! :) Who knows what 2008 will hold!?
Joey called at midnight and said he was "the happiest man in the world," because Michelle had called and invited him to Appleton. Sigh. Young love. (he has been moping for a week and a half, ever since she had suggested that they take a "break" on their month off...) Emily welcomed the new year with friends, and Anna and Jake were here with us. We had a group of 14 adults and 8 kids for dinner and games...Bunco was the hit of the night...the first Bunco in our new home.
The sky is bright, the snow is gorgeous out our living room window, the Starbucks is brewed, and all is quiet and well in my world.
Once I get home from the ribbon cutting ceremony for a newly designed clinic in Kenosha, (sigh!) it will be a couch day: knitting, reading, writing, planning, resting...I can't wait! I'm about half way through Home to Holly Springs by Jan Karon. Father Tim (the main character of the Mitford series) goes back to his roots to make peace with the world he left behind. It's slow moving, but an enjoyable winter read -- the kind of book you can read a chapter at a time...
2008 is well begun. May God pour His richest blessings on us all this year, and may we purpose to becoming more like Him.

I was wondering what on earth you were doing up and posting at 7:16 a.m., then saw the information about needing to be at the grand opening - hope that goes well, and the rest of the "couch day" is restful and refreshing!
