Happy New Year! Here's to a great 2008.
Paige and I had a great time this New Years. We took a break from our usual going out to a restaurant and toasting in the New Year. This year we rented a villa at Callaway Gardens. It turned out to be nicer than we thought. The villa was very big, the only issue we had was there was too much furniture in it. You couldn't walk around without almost knocking your knees into some dangerous piece of furniture.
As part of staying at the villa we got full access to the park. This time of year there aren't many people visiting Callaway Gardens, so we didn't have to fight the crowds. The fun thing to do is going to the butterfly exhibit. We both took a lot of photos. I will link to mine once I have them off the camera and processed.
We brought along food and cooked ourselves a great meal. We bought a bottle of wine and sparkling wine, which we used to toast in the New Year. It was a nice evening.
I'm not doing my usual New Years Resolution post. Not resolving to do too much this year. My debt is under control, so I plan on keeping it that way. I could stand to lose some weight, so I will work on that. About the only other thing I can think of is trying to get back into taking pride in my job and working at Turner. Lately I've looked at the job as an 8 hour chunk of the day that stands in the way of me doing stuff I enjoy, and it hasn't always been that way. Guess I need to sit back and look at what it is I'm not liking and see what I can do to change it for the better.
Have a great year!!
