Well I’m not going to do that.  Everybody feels this huge need at the end of every year to reflect on the past year and then to make resolutions at the beginning of the new year.  I’m rebelling.  I’m not making any resolutions.  Not gonna do it.  Hell no.  And the reflection thing…..nope.  I reflect all the damned time.  I’m always yammering on about why I am so blessed and why my life is better than yours and blah blah blah.  So no reflections and no resolutions.  Do I have anything interesting to add to this new year occasion?  Not really, but what I really want to do is to say this:  How are you guys?  Are you guys doing well in your lives?  We never talk….not really.  Not about the things that matter.  Has anybody been asking you if you’re happy?  Did you have a good year?  Take a moment to leave a lonely old hag a comment. 

Jessie and I are enjoying Lukas’ presents as much as he is.  Like after he goes to bed, we play with the Lego blocks and draw obscene pictures on the Magna Doodle.  It’s kind of funny actually, I’m really enjoying myself.  I draw terrible little caricatures to make Jessie laugh and he builds with the blocks.  We are a couple of immature idiots…..but made for each other. 

I hope you guys enjoyed our little Christmas video.  I couldn’t bring myself to cut it up, so I posted the whole thing.  I never expected you to sit and watch the whole thing…so if you’re not a grandparent and you watched the whole thing, I’m sorry.  But that was a great day here.  I am so in love with that little man.

I don’t have much to talk about.  We’ve just been sitting around and talking about our future, making fun of each other, throwing stuff at each other, watching a lot of TV, and playing with Lukas.  Life is good right now.
