Already 6 days into 2010, and there is never enough time to do everything I want to. I am kept busy with Cub Scouts, family history, work, and the general running of things. Life is good, family are great, and friends are precious. I have just found a friend I have not had contact with for at least 35 years. I will have fun catching up with her. We went to see Rogers sister CarolAnn for the first time in at least 10 years (16 for me). We will do much better in future keeping in touch. I dont know what the New Year will bring, but I hope that when I look back on it, I can say I have done as the Lord wanted me to do. I am nothing without Him. I love My Savior Jesus Christ, and my Father in Heaven, I am grateful for the restored church on the Earth, I love and appreciate each member of my family (especially Roger), and I am grateful for my health, home, friends, pets, jobs, and all the other things in my life that make me happy. I welcome this new year, and pray for strength to endure it well. We will miss our beloved Aspen, but know that she had a good life with us, what a faithful companion she was.
