STARTING A NEW YEAR - "RIGHT"?

"Prospero ano nuevo!", as they say in Spain and
Mexico, and most of South America (Brazil being
the only Portugese- speaking country in Latin
America).
A prosperous and healthy 2010 to you and yours!!
We're all giving thanks for the blessings of 2009,
but looking forward to even greater things this year!
A RARE MOMENT occurred on Christmas Day, as
both Chartel and C.J. were at the dinner table with
Cindy and me. WHAT A BLESSING! It had been a
while since they both shared a meal with me and
each other, and I was joyful to experience their
attendance.
Cindy had her foot operation last month, and all
went well. Her stitches are out, she recovered
quickly (as expected, she's such a trooper), and
she's now wearing regular shoes! No, she's not
a hillbilly, just had pain and discomfort trying to
do that before.
Chartel plans to take possession of her car soon,
as soon as we can get the transfer affected, and
she plans to trade it in right away, hopefully for
something more economical and less banged-up.
Huh?
She's busy with work and her online college courses,
and I'm proud of her industriousness.
C.J. was home for a couple of days, and we were able
to get new mud 'n' snows on his car, moving his
other new tires to the back. He wants to get another
vehicle, too, but is finding it hard to save the money
to do so, what with college loan payments, rent, etc.
As for me, December was toooooooo busy, what
with being needed at work extra hours, preparing
and delivering 2 sermons twice in our Pastor's
absence (he was on vacation). We have an 8:30
AM mission church service, and the "big church"
service at 11:00 AM. The cold weather
and the snow didn't help, either, as it's hard to
feel creative when your brain fluid is gelled up!
Huh?
Anyway, I'm determined to do some serious
catching up, with this being the third composition
today, and hopefully the other two before I leave
the keyboard.
Thanks for reading and for keeping in touch. We
loved the e-cards and the ones that came in the
mail. Also enjoyed tremendously the chats we
we able to get in with some of you over the holidays.
GOD BLESS YOU, and have a GREAT 2010!!
