iMAC

Finally after almost a decade we have retired Mary's laptop and our family has bought a new computer.  We got an iMac and you know what, I love it!  We just brought it home tonight and I think it is brilliant. (sorry just saw Love Actually again, Christmas tradition)  When I plugged in my canon digital camera into the iMac it quickly brought all my pictures into iPhoto, downloaded them, and asked me if I wanted to delete the originals from my camera.  

All of our photos look so vivid on the Mac and look how pretty it is.  =)  Christian was pretty excited about it too.

This Christmas I got to catch up with some old friends.  Last week we had dinner with Simon and Lisa at Hayes Street Grill in the city.  (It sucked, don't go there)  Then on Friday I hung out with my good friend Daniel who was in town for the holidays.  Seeing him again made me wish all the more he would move back.  

As the New Year approaches I guess I've been thinking about resolutions.  I usually don't make them but Mary shared this quote with me from John Ortberg and I've been contemplating on it a lot lately.  "You must ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life."  Doesn't it speak volumes? Another cool idea Mary had was to have one word be your theme for the new year.  My word for 2009 is PATIENCE.
