Made a lot of lists
This year has been the cap to a few hard years for me/us financially and emotionally, but for the first time I'm pretty sure we're on the other side. I'm looking forward to a great 2009. I know it won't be perfect and it will be hard at times, but I am determined to take control of the things I can and just let the other crap go. Ha-that sounds like the AA prayer. I promise, I have issues, but alcoholism is thankfully not one of them.
Next on the bloglist: Lots of pictures and stuff from Christmas in the homeland! Good times, refreshing and rejuvenating!

you are on a roll with the lists! i like it!!
I love it, but how do you remember all the little details! Crazy. I have no idea how many times I have been to urgent care. For myself, or my kids!
I'm with Jilly. i could never keep track of the visits to Urgent Care. After March, I lose count.
I love your attitude Katy. And maybe you can offer some tips on the caffeine thing. Right now I drink at least 20 oz of Cherry Coke a day, and it's on my list of things to cut out of my life this year.
OK, how is it that people don't know how many times a year they've been to urgent care? I've only been a hand full of times in the past 5-7 years, so it's a pretty big deal when I go. I guess when you have kids though, you probably just lose count
very true. urgent care visits? no idea, too many to even count. Now, emergency room visits...Connor has already been 4, maybe 5 times in his 20 months...ugh. boys.
Happy New Year! Ok, did you blog about Santa Cruz? Did I comment? You realize that is about 1 hour south of where I live...next time let me know and I'll meet you at the beach! Here's to a great 2009!!
I just realized I didn't get a pic of the two of us together! I had my camera, too. Blast!
