Thank you for making 2008 a year full of friendship, love, and kindness. As I look back, I know I've been blessed in too many ways to count. I'm not very successful at keeping resolutions, so I'm not going to disappoint anyone by starting now. I hope to do a better job of paying it forward in 2009. I didn't do as much fundraising, and I could have given more blood.....my efforts will improve on both fronts this coming year.
I have met a few blogging friends in the last nine months that I've been blogging. Here in Texas I spent a wonderful day with Briana and Cortney last Spring. Then in the fall, I met up with Jason, his spouse Giancarlo, his son Diego, Kim from Pumpkin Delight, Hula Hank and his family from the land of wallabies, in Southern California for a wonderful brunch.
Bloggers I hope to meet in 2009. The East Coast hooligans, specifically the gang in Mathews County Virginia, if they ever get their Blogapalooza plans up and running....then swing by Virginia Beach to see my boyfriend Cooper. I will definitely be there in Austin when The Incredible Woody crosses the finish line on her bike ride. I might be driving to Denver, which means I might check up on Hollywood even though she doesn't have a blog.
On the California front, there are two very special ladies who I have to meet one day. I've known them the longest...through my grandson's leukemia journey. That would be Marey and Postcard Cindy. As I mentioned before, Marey's daughter had leukemia too, and it's amazing how many wonderful people I have met through childhood cancer....Briana is another person that came into my life that way.
So, If you happen to be on my route as I travel, or if you find yourself in my neck of the woods give me a shout!!
Thank you friends and God bless you in 2009

Grandma J. - There's no way we'd hold an East Coast Blogapalooza without you being Front and Center. I feel so personally blessed to have found you and your family and your pets and your crazy techno-skillz, but really it's your sense of humor that slays me each and every day.
Happy New Year, and if all works out as planned, we'll meet in 2009.
Love ya - cbw
Happy New Year to one of the nicest, kindest bloggers around!

Happy New Year J! Glad i found your blog last year!
I'm glad I got to be a part of your 2008!
Happy New Year Grandma J!
You did a great job of fundraising this year!
Happy New Year!!! I made resolutions this year---start my blog (I needed a camera apparently that I have on my phone now), call ten cancelled listings a day as I read your blog & don't get distracted and play the game at the bottom of your page 3 (twelve) times a day.
I wish I was on your route. I would like to see your ten favorite pictures from 2008 : ). Can you do it?
I'll clean the guest bedroom and leave the gate open for you if you try to get to SouthWest Florida!!!
Happy new year to one of my favorite peeps!!!
You're welcome to come see us anytime! We have a spare guest room for you to stay in, as long as you don't mind Cooper waking you up at 5:30 in the morning. (The other day when I went to get him, he was lying in his bed clapping and saying "YEAH!")
Hope to see you this year! Meg
Happy New Year Grandma J! So glad I met you in 2008!
A little off topic, Guys... I have a question. Last weekend I saw this site:
[url=http://www.rivalspot.com]Rivalspot.com - Xbox tournaments for money[/url]
They say you can play online NCAA Basketball game tournaments on any console for cash... had anyone tried that before? Looks like a cool idea...
Are there any other sites where you can play sports games for real moneys? I Googled and found only Bringit.com and Worldgaming.com but it looks these guys don't specialize in sport gamez. Any suggestions?
If you want to play Madden, NCAA Football, FIFA, NHL2K or Fight Night tournaments on your Playstation 3 or Xbox console online for prize - we look for beta-testers ASAP. Become our fan on Facebook until end of March and you can receive $2,000 in cash: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?v=wall&ref=mf&gid=298821430083&_fb_noscript=1
Hails all! I own a budget tattoo supply business in Los Angeles. I used to buy all tattoo equipment at wholesale prices but my supplier killed himself (life is weird!) so I'm looking for a low cost tattoo equipment firm (preferable online) to buy tattoo stuff from. Here is an example of what I need: Tattoo Supply. Thank you very much in advance for all tips guys! PM me or write me at: triple6tattoo@hotmail.com
