New Years and Orlando in 2010

With Christmas over, we swung right into New Years!!! We had New Years Eve at our house this year. A small group of friends and family came over and stayed the night. We couldn’t have a huge party this year because we had to fly out on New Years Day to Orlando, but in the future, we’ll have more elobarate NYE parties. The logistics worked out great at our house. We have lots of bedrooms and bathrooms so nobody has to drive home. Plenty of room to stay. I suppose we’ll do a big dinner on New Years Eve, and then a brunch on New Years Day. This year was the test run.

So, new years resolutions. As always, lose a few pounds, I lost some from last year but I’d like to lose a few more in 2010. Finish my MS degree. I don’t have much left, but I’d like to finish it up. Finally .. save more for retirement. We’ve made some dramatic changes this past year but I think we can do even better.

My wife, sister, brother-in-law, and myself go to Orlando each December or January (one of the past trips: Orlando 2008). This year it was flippin cold. In the 30’s most of the time. The forcast said 65ish, so I left my jacket in the car at the airport. Fatal error. I ended up getting a cold.  As usual, we ate and drank our way through Orlando at Disney and a few other places. On this trip we discoverd Joe’s Crab Shack. Let’s just say “YUM”. Teriffic seafood, and lots of it. We also did a very nice dinner at Sleuths Mystery Dinner Shows. It was quite entertaining.

The weather and my cold was about the only bummer. We were in San Diego last month and the weather was in the 40’s because of a typhoon someplace in the Pacific. That’s unusually cold for San Diego. Now we went to Florida and they had the coldest weather they’ve had in years. I’ve been trying to escape the cold all winter without any success. I think I need another vacation. I’ve been gyped thus far.

Anyway, I’ll update again soon
