Well I've survived Y2K, ha, ha.  With all the worry the past year it was kinda a disappointment that nothing happened.  I would say it was a credit to the programmers throughout the world to have fixed the problem.  Kind of ironic that it was a problem that programmers caused to begin with.
 
I didn't check my mail as much as I had planned, so I am now reading your messages.  I spend most of Christmas day at home by myself but Anne had me over for dinner with her boyfriend.  It was nice to spend time with her.  I spent most of my time last week working on a headboard for the bed.  It turned out quite well.  I bought enough lumber that I decided to make a matching nightstand which I just finished assembling yesterday.  I still need to put the finish on it.
 
I spent New Years day watching CNN starting around 8am.  CNN had New Years coverage all day as the New Years progressed around the world.  I found it very interesting to watch the different countries celebrations starting with Australia and progressing thought each time zone to Japan, China, Egypt, etc.  It was clear by mid afternoon there wasn't going to be any Y2K problems.  It was quite cold around Christmas, highs only being around 35.  It then turned exceptionally warm the past couple of days hitting 70 yesterday.
 
I didn't get as much reading done as I had planned, but I did catch up on the dozen or so computer magazines that I had laying around the house.  Well I'm back to work, which should be starting out slow the first couple of weeks.  The imaging project for the ATF are completed and nothing new is to start right away.
 
Happy New Year.
