Wow, just like that, 2007 is gone and another year is here. Time to
take down the tree, change the calendar, and make some resolutions
that will hopefully last past January.  What does 2008 have in store for you?  I pray that everyone has a good year, 2007 seemed to be a bit rough all around.   As many of us do, I  have decided that this is the year to get back into shape.  It would have been much easier to stay in shape than to try to get it back but life moves on.  Health and fitness and are on the forefront  this year since I have been told that I am in the pre-diabetes stage.  Nothing like the doctor giving you a good swift kick to get you moving.  So, on the agenda is Weight Watchers, new exercise equipment and Curves.

On a different note, it's time to revitalize the site, we are up to 695 members!  Very nice, it's just time for contributors to get involved.  I plan on working with PMI this year to cross link information and the sites.  I'm not sure exactly where that will go but I'll keep you up to date.

On the home front, we had a wonderful Christmas and New Year with the exception that Brandyn didn't make it home for the first time.  He was changing colleges in Maine and had a ton of stuff to get done.  Ryan (my 15 year old) was selected for a 1 year exchange program in China.  He is very excited, he's been studying Japanese and Chinese for the past 2 years and really wants to go.  I'm still debating whether to let him go for the year program or the summer program.  The cost is high so I told him that he has to do some fundraising.

I hope that all of you had a wonderful holiday season.  Share your resolutions and stories with all of us!

Take care and God Bless,

Kristi
