Happy New Year everyone! I'm still at the tail end of a cold, so I'll be at home celebrating tonight. Hope everyone out and about having a good time will take some photos so I can at least feel like I got out. LOL!

I haven't really indulged in any drinking this winter. Just don't feel much like drinking for whatever reason. I still keep my Johnnie Walker empty's from Red label on thru to the Platinum.
Perhaps one day I'll be able to finish my collection and get a bottle of the Blue label, but I'm in no real hurry. I have also tried many of the different brands of liquor such as the Bourbons and other such popular labels the last two years and this may be the reason I am not real interested in drinking now days. Pretty much it all taste like a$$ at first, but you develop a taste for it. By and far I think 15 years is the sweet spot for scotch, at least in my samplings, which did occur during a rather short period of time in my opinion.
The weather is starting to really cool off, not in the teens or single digits yet and not much snow to speak of. I'm just now getting over that cold, took a lot of time off to ensure it would not drag on for a month and I think it was a wise choice. Hopefully I can catch up on my work now and be done with any more cold/flu viruses. This years was not as bad as a few years back but it still rendered me pretty much worthless. It's frustrating to catch a cold when you're self employed, but you have to try your best to ensure you don't make things worse - and that's what makes it frustrating.
I sure hope 2016 turns out to be a good year for everyone, if anything at least it's the last year of the Obama / Democrat reign. It will be nice to get some fresh leadership to see how things get mixed up, hopefully for the better. While I have had some positives during his tenure, overall I have been pretty much, like everyone else, just getting by.

There's not been a lot of work for me either in the last 12-months, & I've pretty much been living off my savings...Lot's of new certificates for me to re-validate this year also, just to stay in the game, but why spent $$$ when there's no game to play ? I'll just have to keep sitting-it-out until utmost need regretfully...But things could always be worse, just look at Stoma !
Cheers,
