New year!

Thank goodness 2007 is over. There were highlights like meeting with White House advisers and the administrator of the Small Business Administration and a record year in the charitable giving campaign I help run, but there were also a lot of awful things and challenges.

2008 started on a high note, though. When I got to the office today and opened my mail, I found I had received a Service Excellence Award. Woo hoo! But it's probably all downhill from here.
