This New Years Day I felt like I had a hangover.  I forced myself out of bed at a reasonable time, given how late we were up, so that I could keep the kids close to their proper schedule.  I was grateful that I was just tired and wasn't suffering the effects of alcohol or other substances.

I also felt spiritually flat at some level this day.  I felt as if my faith was depleted somehow.

We had a good day doing yard work and practicing baseball.  But at the end of the day I was very tired and didn't go to a meeting.

I was grateful that I did an evening review 324 out of 365 days last year.

Thanks be to God for the beginning of another great new year.
