2008 -- already????

While I'm sure I am not the only one wondering what happened to 2007 (and 2006, 2005, 2004, etc.), I find myself sitting at my desk in blur asking, "How can this be? I had so many things to finish in 2007 and now it is finished and I am not."
In one sense, that's a good thing: If I were finished, what would I have to look forward to when I got up this morning?
As it is, I am looking forward to dinner with friends this weekend, a trip soon to South Carolina to visit my best and oldest friend, Sandee Wilkerson; my part time job at Kohl's that helps pay for our health insurance; setting up a new marketing program for Pied Pipers of Travel with Deborah Chaddock-Brown, seeing my friend Dianne Winnen-Oldenburg's house transformation ... and that's just THIS WEEK!
Further out, I am eager to spend time with grandkids and explore more of God's wonderful world -- perhaps even combining the two as we did this past weekend at the Columbus Zoo with my daughter Alise, her husband Jerry, and granddaughters Julia, Emma, Lauren and Audrey.
