As I sit here with my big glass of Sparkling cider, with the rain getting ready to pour down like the walls of Jericho, and the house torn apart due to painting some walls, I can't help but look back at this year with a certain degree of despisement and contemplation.
This year has been the scariest year ever, with my Uncle Leonard's passing, my dad's Double Bypass, the passing of our beloved Dog Katy, and the list of numerical woes that have gone on. Saying that, This year certainly has changed me. I appreciate a lot more things now, especially my Father and the trials he's gone through.
That being said, I give this year a toast for its end and its role in my life, and I thank god it's over. I look forward to the new year, ten times over, and hope to god it will be as good as this year was bad.
