Almost there

Peter JamesNo nothing deep behind the tittle. Just saying it is almost the new year, and I guess I am looking forward to that. It has been a year unlike any other in my life. Well there was one other that was pretty crazy but this is a doozy too. Not all bad by any stretch, but very heavy I would say.
It is almost time to go to Mexico as well. I found out that Phil and I will be going to the El Cid Castilla Beach Hotel in Mazatlan. Never been there, so I like it already. It looks like a pretty sweet place, all inclusive and you get to stay at one play at three. Not too bad at all! I love my job.
Also I wanted to let you know that my exams went really well. I have a 4.0 in one class a 3.7 in another and then a 2.5 in the last. I had a rough start in that one and was behind the whole time, there was something weighing on my mind back at the begining, what was that again? Oh well, it is done and dusted now.
Christmas was nice for me this year. We had mother come and cook us breakfast (see below post) and then after some cleaning Jon and I set of for a jaunt around Princess Island Park. Funny enough we sat right in front of an old crime scene I know all too well. Some sort of engagement happened there last year, I try to block it out. Anyhow, as we were sitting there in the warm sun smoking our pipes, I noticed that we might appear to be quite gay. There were about ten benches there on either side of us and we were sitting shoulder to shoulder both of us with our legs crossed smoking our pipes.Jon suggested that I not cross my legs at the same time as him but that we take turns. No bother, it was a good time of reflection and Philosophy. Then it was off to Laura's for an amazing feast with the rest of the family. I am still full at this moment, thanks Laura and Chalotte (Lauras mamma)
So here is to a good Christmas and looking forward to getting out of this year alive and actually doing very well. Thanks to all friends and family for support and gifts, I love elephants!
