In a few hours the year 2005 will officially end. I’ll be (hopefully) asleep when the event happens. I’ve come down with a case of the flu and I’ve been feeling worse today than yesterday. I don’t like being sick. I went to the doctor after work on Thursday where she confirmed that what I had was the flu that’s going around. She also commented that this was one of the sickest Christmas seasons she’s seen in the last twenty years. I’ve been in the house since then and sooner or later I’ll start feeling better. However, I will be starting the new year feeling lousy!<\/p>\n

We did stay home in December and will likely be home the full month of January. Next year will be much closer to home than 2005 was! <\/p>\n
We will spend a very quiet evening here. Nina will do her normal Sunday duty at the prison, but I’ll be staying home. I’m expecting that we’ll have a very quiet beginning to the new year. We did get a fair amount of snow yesterday followed by a lot of rain today and most of the snow is gone. More snow is forecast for tonight, again changing to rain tomorrow. Snow or rain either one is OK — we need the water regardless of how it comes. I’m quite happy with rain — it doesn’t need to be shoveled!!!<\/p>\n
Happy New Year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
