So, I guess I'm still alive...I guess the mayans were wrong about the whole end of the world and another christmas has come and gone... As I get older I'm tending to somewhat despise Christmas, not because I don't mine spending time with family and friends, but with all the commercialism, material wanting and just plain selfishness it just seems more for the kids and less for the adults.
Also as the holidays are coming to an end it is time to look back at this past year. First, my mom got remarried in march. Ernie is a great guy and has nothing but treated her with the utmost respect for her. She seems very happy. I took a lot of trips this year....Las Vegas to see the grand canyon, St. Louis for the second time ( I took my cousin jeff with me). Finally, crossed something off my bucket list as I went to Cooperstown, NY to the baseball hall of fame as well as Niagara Falls on the canadian side. We had the all star game in Kansas city as well as the all star fanfest in which I was a volunteer for three days...an awesome experience in which I treasure.
We had an election that I didn't like the results, a school shooting that was tragic, a hurricane that smacked the east coast, a summer Olympics that was impressive for Michael Phelps and we all decided to go gangham style with psy.
So, merry christmas and a happy new year for 2013
sincerely,
tim crippen
