Happy New Year

Christmas is over, it's a new year, and we're all back in school.

The ribs are healing ever-so slowly, but I am feeling better every day. My daughter just came down into the kitchen and put Cheap Trick's Rockford in the CD player. What can I say? My kid has great taste in music, and she's only eight!

Reading-wise, I'm finishing up Stephen King's Desperation. Definitely not one of King's best works, but still a good read. The movie adaptation of Desperation was on television the other night, and as much as I would have loved to have seen it, I purposefully stopped watching so the ending wouldn't be spoiled for me.

My brother and sister-in-law had to have their beloved dog, Hershey, put down yesterday. It must have been a difficult decision for them, but they did what was right for their faithful companion. They had adopted Hershey over 10 years ago and gave him a great home. My thoughts are with them and their two young sons at such a sad time.
