There was a lot of crap this year. Hopefully 2009 will be less crap. But for all the crap there was as much good. We all have a tendency to focus on the crap. And when things are good we fail to realize and appreciate just how good things are. We don&#8217;t seem to treasure the good times while they are happening. It takes some real crap to make us see the good, and then we&#8217;re focusing on the crap again and how it ruined everything. <\/p>\n<p>So&#8230; I&#8217;m going to focus on the good stuff today, and get the crap out. First, by taking out the garbage, and then cleaning the cat box&#8230;. I&#8217;m going to start the new year with a fresh clean house. I&#8217;ve emptied the science projects out of my refrigerator (ewww!!) and I&#8217;m finishing up the dishes. Then I will swiffer and vacuum, etc. Get all the crap off the table and the ottoman and the couch, prepare my home for a fresh new year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Post of the Year So I had this great post going on in my head.
