Dear All of You,

Just a short note to wish you all a Happy New Year!!

I don't know about all of you, but 2005 to me went by so fast, that I have a hard time to realize that this is it of 2005. Where did it go???????????

I had a great year. It was bad there for a while, but if I think of it, it wasn't that bad!! It could have been worse!! Much worse!!! What are some broken ribs, sick horse, huge bills when I think of all the people out there who have nothing? No food, no fresh water, no shelter, no family members left, no hope, nothing. So I take it back.My year was great!!!

The highlight was the Vegas World Cup. That was so much fun!! An extra hug and thank's to Zeilinger who was right there when I needed him the most!! He was just there. So COOL.
Taison winning Horse of The year. The other horses ranked very high in the nation as well. Good Boys.

I have seen my beloved family quite a bit this year. We all went to Malta in the spring. Great! Mother turning 85 with a fun weekend. Fredrik's and Kirse's baby Ellie and her Christening. I had a chance to be at the cottage as well. A great place to be!! So that was fun!

I do hope you all are well and healthy. And I wish you all the best of everything in 2006. Please take a moment of silence, wishing for peace on earth and hope for all who are suffering. We are the lucky ones!!!!!!!!!!

In my thoughts.

Love mette
