I wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year's Eve, and to inquire as to how you are going to use your extra second. Don't know about that? It seems our Earth is slowing down, causing non-atomic clocks such as Big Ben to be a bit off. We are going to have a leap second. I am making a list as to what I am going to do with my extra second tonight. Perhaps I shall use it to pray that 2009 brings a better year to this world. I wonder if they will countdown from eleven?
Notes:
It is snowing here. A lot.
Paris (our Japanese Chin dog) is pitiful. She has one eye stitched shut and can't see out of the other. It wouldn't be so bad if she was smart enough to let us treat her with the pain drops, but she fights us at every step. She never was the sharpest crayon in the box.
William got sick Monday and all day Tuesday. While his stomach is feeling better, he woke up in the night with an intense earache. I might have reported that his ears are filled with fluid and he's deaf as a post. I am glad now that I've moved up his surgery to put tubes in his ears and remove his adenoids.

Hope the little one feels better. I used to suffer horribly from ear aches as a child, so I can fully sympathize.
As for my extra second, I'm sure I'll just use it to bank towards my sleep deficit.
Happy New Year!
It's snowing here as well, and the winds are howling. It is good to be home.
I hope that health returns to your home and that the new year brings you and the planet good things.
Will the Zymox used on the dog work on William?
A whole extra second? The possibilities boggle.
Aloha & Happy New Year!
Feel better, William!!
I hope William and Lauren feel better soon. Did they catch the stomach flu that's going around? It tore through our house the week before Christmas.
