I’ve decided to change my blog software to WordPress from MachBlog.

Just a quick note to say Merry Christmas and a very happy and prosperous new year to all my readers (all 2 or 3 of you that I know of). We’ve been having family Christmas celebrations for a little over a week now due to our extended family being spread over two states. Tomorrow morning my wife and I (like millions of other parents around the world) will get to watch our kids’ faces light up with the magic of Christmas morning. It’s been a wild and busy year that has gone by too quickly, but it’s really nice to slow down for a few days this week and spend time with family. Here’s hoping that each of you get a chance to have a special holiday with friends and family. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and we’ll see you on the other side of the ball dropping in Times Square.
