What a perfect post. You achieved a lot of good things in 2007 and I have a feeling 2008 is going to be a good year for all of us.
Wow so many things for 2008! I like your list some of those would be on my list too, I hope you have a wonderful 2008.
Happy New Year! Good luck witht the job thing this year.
Can you tell me where to get the bakers twine? I'm a bit in love with it.
I didn't think there was much until I wrote it all down.
The bakers twine is from The Bay Tree in Woollahra
Thanks MissK! I will give them a call.

Sounds like you have had a great year, other than the stomach bugs. I'm looking forward to what's on the horizon for 2008. My list looks a lot like yours and I hope they all come "true" for both of us!
