I wanted to wish all of my readers a happy New Year. May God bless each of you in this coming year.
I spent New Year’s Eve en route from Tennessee to Massachusetts and celebrated the change of the calendar in a Motel 6 in Carlisle, PA. I will arrive in Massachusetts late Tuesday evening, then turn around and drive to Iowa on Wednesday and Thursday.
2007 has been a real hemorrhoid of a year for me, and I am glad it is finally over. Surely 2008 will be better.
