Super Sunday and Better Days

Well, today was a super day here in River Falls. Erik and I got a ton of stuff done around the house. Some things were not all that great to do or expected....(like frost in the attic that is now melting and causing some minor leaks......solution: new bathroom fan and vent). We also got the Christmas lights down (finally) and did some grocery shopping. In addition, I did work for my masters class and got in some scrapbooking! YEAH.

It's almost time for the Super Bowl to being and I have to admit I am not all that excited. I am interested in the commercials for sure but can't say I am going to really pay attention to the game. I am not really a huge football fan anyway so this may not come as a big surprise. I route for the Packers when I watch a Packer game but that was far and few between this year???? Who knows why, it just was.

2009 is going well so far! Jennifer gave me the lyrics to a great song that is my theme for 2009:
Better Days
By: The Goo Goo Dolls

And you ask me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
And desire and love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

And it's someplace simple where we could live
And something only you can give
And thats faith and trust and peace while we're alive
And the one poor child that saved this world
And there's 10 million more who probably could
If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

I wish everyone was loved tonight
And somehow stop this endless fight
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

I know this year will has it's ups and downs, of course....every year does but I felt like last year was such a down year. On to better days!
