Happy 2008!

I hope you had a good end of the year, because I sure didn’t. After a very nice family Christmas, I had a terrible end of the year.

On 27th I had to take Becky to the hospital because she vomited all previous night due to food poisoning. She got IV for basically the whole day. After I got back I also took Logan to another hospital, because he had a fever of 40 degrees. Luckily they’re both fine now.

In the meantime I found out that I made a huge mistake at work, and lost some important data. On a scale of 1-5 where 5 is the worst case, this was a 4.

Then this Monday I came to work thinking that I would have a slower day, instead I had the worst working day of my life. My system was down for 6 hours, and I kept running around and stressing about it for the whole day. Then I had come in on New Year’s morning and work a couple more hours.

I really hope the rest of the year will be smoother, hopefully the arrival of my daughter will change things for the better.

Anyway, I wish everyone a Happy 2008!
