I got a new haircut. The jury’s out for now on this one, but all that damn hair is gone, which is a very good thing. I have very fine, curly hair, but there’s a hell of a lot of it. My new job starts on Monday – so I got my haircut and new clothes. I’ll also do my nails, and give myself a facial, shave, etc. Just makes you feel all new, you know? I wanted to do one of those month by month year in review things, but I don’t want to do that. In short for 2004: Jay was on strike for almost 8 months. Jay graduated. Jay got new job for what turned out to be an asshole. Jay quit. Jay got new job with great company. Jay had major health issues including a \”brain variance\” which was very scary and included CAT scans and lumbar punctures (spinal tap). He also threw out his back, knee, and had the stomach flu for Christmas. Joseph, it turns out, was not in the cantankerous toddler years. He’s just plain onnery as his personality. Joseph made strides in his absolute refulsal to do anything creative like coloring and actually participated. He’s still a loner, but growing and halthy. Logan has officially moved into the terrible twos – with a vengeance. He is, however, growing well, and no longer in the negative percentile in anything. This pleases his doctor to no end. He doesn’t need to see his cardiologist for six months. He is also a budding artist, and has completely confounded his babysitter when he did their holiday project better than any of the older kids – including kids in the 6th grade compared to his 2 1/2 years. As for me… I gained and lost weight. Had some major hormonal issues that had to be treated by, well, hormones. Lost my job. Took care of all of the above. I am so glad that it’s all over. For the next year I have some goals. These are not resolutions, as many will take all year to get started on etc. 1. Logan gets pottytrained. 2. Quit smoking. 3. Excerize. 4. Eat healthier. 5. Manage the money, and make a dent in our debt. That’s it.
