Happy New Year (among other things)
Previous Entry :: Next Entry

Read/Post Comments (2)

I'd like to wish my readers a Happy New Year! Here's hoping that things get back on track in 2009 for everyone!

We have a vacation coming up in less than two weeks. We booked the air fare before the run-up in gas prices caused air fares to skyrocket, so we aren't paying a fortune for them. We're going to Disney World (again), and are DVC members, so we don't have any additional charges for our room beyond what we pay/paid for our time share points. And we got an annual pass before our last trip in June of 2008, so our park admissions are covered. It should be a reasonably priced vacation, with food being the major expense. My kids are psyched!

The end of the dental year was busy, but productive. As I said in the previous post, we always have a productive week between Christmas and New Year's, and this year we had the added boost of our patients' uncertainty about their own job situations. That isn't a good thing, and doesn't bode well for the practice's prospects in 2009, but maybe it will be better than we all think. All we can do is take it one day at a time.

In the next couple of weeks (or even days) I hope to post my reading list from 2008. I read some pretty good books last year, and this entry always sort of refreshes the reading year for me. I'm sort of looking forward to compiling it.

I've given up on commenting on the health care situation for now. I'm sure I'll have plenty to say after Obama introduces his plans, but all's quiet currently.

(I will say that I like the idea of spending on infrastructure. It provides a tangible benefit for all of us, along with employing people and improving the future for all of us. I also hope that real science, instead of politicized "science", rules the policies of this administration.)

We still haven't seen DESPEREAUX, but we did go see BEDTIME STORIES over the New Year's break. Not the greatest movie. I reviewed it over at my Disney Fan Ramblings blog site, if anyone cares to see what I thought of it in more detail (though not MUCH more detail).

Tomorrow, on my weekly day off, I take my mom to the audiologist for adjustment of her cochlear implant and possibly to get a new hearing aid. Then later, I take the kids to karate, which has been changed to my day off. Some day off, huh?

Have a great day, all.
