New Year's Eve, 2009

Last day of 2009 and the first decade of the second millenium. Or is this the third millenium? Not sure how that works exactly. Anyway, looking forward to 2010. This year was rough from a business point of view. 2009 was our worse since we started the company in 2000. In spite of that, we finished much better than we expected. In April, Russell and I were anticipating laying off both interns and possibly closing the business because we really had nothing to do. By the end of May, we had several projects and we felt like there was a chance to keep things going. Glad it was a euphoric kind of feeling. At the beginning of 2009, we had few projects to work on and almost none to look forward to. At the end of 2009, we have several projects to work on and several on the horizon. The way things are going, it is proof to me that capitalism works in spite of the nincompoops in government that keep trying to mess things up. But, that's a rant for another day.

Later today, Debbie and I are heading to Greenville for the weekend. Megan is already at Tara's. Kelsey will not be able to go with us. Bums me out that she has to be in Stillwater alone this weekend because she could not get off work, but we need to go get Megan.

OSU plays in a bowl game on Saturday. Hopefully that ends well for the Pokes.

Happy New Year to everyone. Hope 2010 is a good year for all.
