it seems that i haven't been to work in about a month but the time off is really great. i talked to my sister linda a few days ago and she was at work, she works for EDS, i hope to keep in touch with her more often. one of my goals this year is to keep in touch with my brothers and sister to get more involved in what they're doing and whats going on with them. i would also like to keep up with this blog journal i think this a great idea and i would like for it to catch on with my side of the family. the vacation started with a trip to Disneyland, we have annual passes and my family just loves going there. the drive was kinda long and eventfull but we made it there and back safely and we had a blast. well it's on to the new year and the best of wishes to everyone.
