What a great way to remember the year. You have a good memory. I am wondering if I were to do this, if I could actually remember everything from the beginning of last year. hmmm....yes, I think so. Maybe my brains aren't completely fried...yet.
Enjoyed your post.
By the way, how far away is your brother moving?
Happy New Year!! Have a wonderful 2009!!!
