Ah, the end of the year. The one thing I'm not doing is listing any resolutions or any plans. Last year, Christmas '05, my family sat around my dining table and spoke of our plans. A trip in the spring for my parents, going back to seminary for me, etc.
God said Ha.
But I will use this time for some blogging thank you's. I am a bit fearful to do this -- I know I will miss someone who has written just the right thing at the right time for me. So, as we say in church, "we honor both the spoken and unspoken words ..."
Thank you, Anne, for your plucky spirit, wild life (compared to this sedate mom) and awesome sense of humor.
Thank you, Boobless Brigade Master, for your in-your-face attitude that I learn from and seek to emulate.
Thank you, Philocrites, for keeping me in the greater world of UU thought, even during the time I couldn't attend my church or seminary.
Thank you, iMinister, for making me feel like I had a minister keeping an eye out for me, and a hand outstretched for when I fell.
Thank you, Peacebang, for challenging me both in the theological and appearance arenas.
Thank you, RevSean, for saying nice things. Nice is undervalued in some places. It is not here.
Thank you Nancy, for sharing your journey with your son. I know that if we lived next door to each other, we'd be great friends, and constantly in mischief.
Thank you, Chalice Chick, for being my "Yeah, yeah!" blogger friend. So many of your posts have me saying, "Yeah, what SHE said!"
And to all of you whose blogs I have visited, and those who have visited mine, being an observer to this journey.
Happy New Year. May 2007 find you and yours in good health, with the only surprises good ones. And laughter. Lots and lots of laughter.

I thought of you today when I took down my Christmas tree. Knowing you have a hard time doing it, too, made it less scary and depressing for me. I actually got into being extra organized and feel good about starting a new year, even with my own D (diagnosis) Day looming in March.
By the way, you are welcome, but I have to thank you as I wish you a Happy New Year. You are an incredible person and we would be good friends, indeed. Thanks for making me think!
It's been good getting to know you, LE, over this year. Thanks for the introduction to blogging as relationship!
May this year bring nothing but good news and astounding growth for the little warior.
And thank you, Lizard Eater, for your wonderful words, openness and humor. Love to you and yours in the new year.
What a great idea LE! You have no idea how much your comments mean to me. I hope you have a great New Year!!
(Oh yeah..and I used THREE of your recipes for New Years. People are starting to think that Im a good cook..ha! They could not get enough of the Heart Attack bites...next time I will have to make 2 pans!)
