You say goodbye, I say hello!
All the kids are asleep. Chad wanted to stay awake this year, just in case the neighbors did fireworks, but he didn't make it. I just put him in his room.

Today was one of my long days, but at least I don't have to do the midnight patrol! I hate dealing with all the drunks.

Before the year is over, I want to say thank you to my flist for hanging around, thank you to my family for all their support and never-ending love, thank you to the maintainers at my pervy communities who have stayed strong in all the uncertainty here at LJ and a couple of special thank yous to follow.

First of all, thanks Charlie for the extra paid time (a year!) and userpics. I don't think I've ever paid much myself during my nearly three years here at LJ. It's great to have such good friends.

Next, I have to publically thank Linds (AGAIN!) for the great gift she gave us in 2007. Of course I'm talking about our little prince, Henry. I always knew she was a special person and a great friend, but I'm still overwhelmed by this generosity and love.

And finally I want to thank the continually devoted sue_chose_this for her support here at LJ. She's always watching and commenting, she links our website from her own LJ and she even joined my Colin Watch list to help me out there. (And that Braveheart blend for Bri's birthday was a real present to both of us, girl!) I'm not sure what I ever did to deserve it all, but believe me I feel lucky.

Happy New Year to all of you, and even when I don't get here to LJ, I'm thinking of you and wishing you well.
