Sooo very close

By Greg on December 30, 2010

Tomorrow is the day, all year I have worked towards this one number. A number that will feel so great to hit.  I am already enjoying the feeling of crossing that line. Not that it is in the bag but its pretty close.

I only have just over 9 grand. Hell ya. And I hope the final turns are going to be like this.

I bet it will be hard to fall asleep if I wake up in the early morning. Probable just lie there waiting to get up and go, and if I dream it will most likely be weird dreams of me some how not accomplishing my goal.

But don’t worry when I wake up I will get out there and accomplish this…

    Have a great day in the powder tomorrow and a huge celebration New Year’s Eve!
    With snow like that, you might even head up on the 1st … just for fun.
    Sure hope to get some days like that in a couple weeks. CONGRATS!
