feeling great in 2008

oh hallelujah it is a new new year

and it is, may I say, started off quite nicely.

New Year's Eve was lovely and peaceful (fire, movie, pizza) and we were in bed by 1 and then up by 10 a.m. for a quiet day of reading, new computer tinkering and movie-watching. Pretty blissful.

Today, work. Of course I would have loved to have the rest of the week off but reality intervened. And while I didn't quite make my 6:45 wake-up call I am, very slowly, working up to getting used to the teaching hours (which will go into effect Jan. 28) and I got to work much earlier than usual so that's a good thing. One day at a time.

Things to which I am looking foward in 2008:

Teaching (scared but excited)
New teaching wardrobe - this excuse to go shopping and buy quality clothes is quite nice
More business with K (our eBay shop is doing really well right now -let's see where it goes)
Home improvements (new bathroom floor, paint the bedroom, new fence, plant flowers, etc)
Riding my new bike
Riding my new bike to work and school
Presidential election (finally)

I hope I'm not setting myself up for failure and disappointment, but I really am convinced that 2008 could not possibly suck as much as 2007 did.
