Yesterday I did something that I'll probably only ever do one more time (maybe two more). It meant very little to me, but it did make me think in 'tens' instead of just 'ones'. You know some people make such a big deal out of turning 30, but maybe the 'big-deal-number' gets bigger as the baby boomers get older. I don't know. A guy at work said "ya know, thirty is like the new twenty-five". -Whatever. But all of a sudden I can think of decades! Yesterday morning felt more like a "New Year's Day" than any January first ever has for me. This is all probably just because I've been innoculated to believe that things change when you turn thirty. What a farse! So anyway...here's to ten more! -or thirty more! -or whatever/however much more! -kmf

So, I don't have much time to post, 'cause we're going camping for my boy's birthday! Happy B-Day, KMV! It's fun to go to the state park this early in the year because there's, like, nobody there. Let's hope it's the same this year. -AND our family's good friends, the Gottbihg's, are going camping, too! So there'll be fun for all: men, women, girls, and boys (and dogs) -how cool is that?! I got my kid a kid's archery set and a new music cd. He will be pretty stoked to receive both. AWWW, YEAH! ...and we're off!-kmf
