Did anyone notice what in the world happened to 2007? If you find it, let me know.

A lot happened in the Pruett's world this past year. Our only child graduated second in her class at Linton-Stockton High School, and is now a freshman at Ball State University.

She's no longer a Miner ... she's a Cardinal.

Instead of playing against Mitchell, Northview, Terre Haute South and the likes in golf, she's playing in tournaments at Penn State, North Carolina-Greensboro, and in just a couple of months we'll be heading to Phoenix for a tournament.

Deb is in her second year of teaching second grade at White River Valley Elementary School, and she still loves helping those little ones learn. I know she enjoys it because her eyes light up when she tells me stories every night about her students.

Things here at the Greene County Daily World are going well. If you're reading this blog, then you know all about our Web site. It went live earlier this year, and has been a major success!

Look for more good things in 2008.

So what will 2008 bring? That's a good question.

I refuse to make any New Year's resolutions. I do hope I can accomplish a couple of things, though, before 2009 rolls around.

To be the best husband and father I can be. If I can come close in those two areas, everything else will fall into place.

Here's wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
