Here I am poised on the brink of a new year with my last post of 2005. Hard to believe we are now halfway through the first decade of the new millennium. Seems like only yesterday we were in this same position breathlessly awaiting the collapse of civilization as we knew with the Y2K disaster that never happened. This year the only excitement will be to see if Dick Clark can survive through another ball drop in Times Square on New Year's Rockin Eve. I, of course, will be able to view it from the comfortable confines of work. No dangerous, noisy, booze infested party for me.
And then it's downhill until March and the end of winter, although I think winter has forgotten about us here in the frozen north. There is absolutely no snow on the front lawn. But it only takes about 72 hours of constant snowfall to throw us back into the Alberta winter we have all grown to love. And I'm sure it's on it's way. So it's a Happy New Year to all and we'll see you next year.
