Good Morning CGs!

Well the baby has a little bit of a nasty cough. Really wet and sounds bad. Hacks up a little bit here and there and gets coughing spells so bad she puked yesterday. Feel bad for her. My wife should be taking her to the doctor today or tomorrow depending on how she is today.

I can't believe this year is almost over! It did go by quick, didn't it? Well, I guess they say the older you get the faster it goes. And having a kid makes it fly by even more quickly.

So the question of the day it, did you accomplish everything you wanted for 2009???

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

You are learning fast Grasshopper. You are the future teebee, 95vette, pianoguy and maybe even Tommy T. The years do fly by. That's why it's so important to live each day well. I pissed many of them away so I am more diligent now. More than ever ...... Don't put off till tommorow what you can do today. Call someone you love and let them know it. Treat yourself. Do a random act of kindness. We never really know which day will be our last. They all add up to make it a very good year.

Good morning guys (and gals).
2009 was not too bad for me. I did not accomplish everything, but I did accomplish a bit.

Advanced in my job.
Spent my extra funds reducing debt.
Did not deplete the savings account.
Although I travel for a living, and am not home as much as I like, I made the time at home better.
Began some long overdue home renovation projects.

The bad:
Put on a few pounds.
Hurt the engine in the vette.

I can live with that, as the good far outweighs the bad.

Gotta go to my buddies mom's funeral this morning. She died christmas day, 11 days after her husband.

Mojo for your little girl, Matt, and for your buddy, Pete - jeez, that is one rough holiday for him

Excellent advice, Tommy - the years start flying by faster than anyone can imagine.

I think my only accomplishment for the year was pulling and reinstalling my engine - never done that before. And I haven't had a cigarette in 7 weeks today.

I have accomplished quite a bit this year. Next year will be just as good....I hope. This year has flown by, as we get older, they seem to go by faster and faster. Thanks Tommy for the advice. Matt, I hope the little one gets to feeling better soon. Pete, those are tough times, but not surprising. Brad, that's great..seven weeks is one great start.

Good luck and a happy new year to all.

I finished hanging the sheet rock, and first coat of mud on (except the inside corners) yesterday...took until 11 pm. Today I am picking up the machine to blow insulation into the attic, so I will be crawling around on my belly in tight quarters today, but it will be good to have that done.

We are headed home tomorrow, so I need to get this stuff done.

And I think I hurt.
Sorry to hear this at the holidays.

I'm sorry I can't add to the list of accomplishments, as everything has fallen apart for me including my home life over the holidays (thanks dood).

I do have prayers and hope that the coming year will bring better things for me and best wishes for all of you as well.

Sorry to hear that, Pete. Bests wishes to your buddy and his family.

My grandma only made it a few months after my grandpa passed, years ago. I guess you can die of a broken heart
