So today it was back downtown to the Museum of Science and Industry with a drive by of Soldier Field, US Cellular Field (Comisky) and the Navy Pier. Good times had by all - we omni-maxed the Grand Canyon too which of course the kids loved.
2008 is ending for us in the warmth of Pink Pants Manor with the aforementioned martinis, lobster claws, and the kids on various electronic machines 'watching' Shrek 2. It is a calm way to ring in the new year to saw the least, and yet oddly comforting. No fighting crowds, just games and martinis.
People have the habit of making resolutions going into the new year - I don't make resolutions, I make promises to myself which I sometimes don't keep. This year, I have to admit, I did not keep all my promises but we had a fun year and both of us are alive, happy and healthy to tell about it. We have the love of family and friends, a steady job, and our health. In this day and age, I am not sure you can ask for more.
Welcome 2009 - we are happy to have a fresh year to continue what we started and start new chapters that only add to the fun.
Cheers!
