On a long coffee break



New Year’s Reflections

Looking back on the months gone by,
As a new year starts and an old one ends,
We contemplate what brought us joy,
And we think of our loved ones and our friends.

Recalling all the happy times,
Remembering how they enriched our lives
We reflect upon who really counts,
As the fresh and bright new year arrives.

And when I ponder those who do,
I immediately think of you.
Thanks for being one of the reasons
I'll have a Happy New Year!

By Joanna Fuchs

By the way, this is also to inform you that Jacqui's Curve will be inactive for a couple of weeks. I will return earlier, if I am able to. In the mean time, have a splendid 2008.

P.S. I will try to respond to all comments the soonest possible. Cheers! (oops... I can't do that with hot coffee)

Pi Bani said...

Happy new year JT! Have a good coffee break, but don't get an overdose of caffeine, ok?

Mat Salo said...

My... and I thought coffee breaks are the ones you take at 9 am and 3 pm. At least on the rig for the day crew that works 6 to 6 that is. It's just enough for a cup of coffee and two sticks of cigarettes. Ha, didn't know it can last for weeks or even months. Anyway, whatever it is that is going to take your time, have a good 2008 ya'hear? And I'm willin' to bet that everybody's here's gonna be missin' you...

Every time I think of you
I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here
And you're miles away
And I'm wondering why you left

And theres a storm thats raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile . . .

(John Waite)

Hi Pearly

I finally have a little time to respond to some comments individually.

Thanks for the New Year wish. I hope you are having a good start to the new year.

Lots of love from my family to yours.

P.S. Sorry I missed your call. I've been a little busy - in and out of the house.

J.T. said...

Dear Kak Ton

Thanks for the new year wishes.

I wish the same for you and your family for 2008.

Cheers!

J.T. said...

Hello David

Thank you for the unique greeting. :)

All the best to you and your family in 2008.

J.T. said...

Hello Nana

Happy New Year to you too.

I could use more blessings and less worries this year. :)
(not complaining about last year, though. :D)

Cheers!

J.T. said...

Hey Zewt

It sure has been a while since I visited your blog.

Thanks for dropping by here and remembering me ... and wishing me. I wish you all good things in 2008. You will be starting a new chapter in your life soon. All the best to you.

Cheers!

J.T. said...

Dear Akmal

Thanks for the new year wish. I hope the new year has been good to you so far.

P.S. I am trying to be nice instead of naughty. :)

J.T. said...

Hi Dawn

Happy New Year to you and your family too.

Hope you had a good vacation back home.

Cheers!

J.T. said...

Hey Winnie

Happy New Year to you and "the one" too.

I am almost 'coffee-d out'. Hoping to return to blogging soon. I managed to find a little time today to catch up on responding to comments here. Blog-hopping is still not possible. I will take my time and not stress out about blogging. As we said before, "it should be fun, right?" :)

Hope 2008 has been good to you so far.

Cheers!

J.T. said...

Hi Pi

Happy New Year to you too.

I am afraid I am almost overdosed with caffeine. After this long coffee break, it will be best if I switch to tea and/or water. :)

Hope 2008 has been good to you so far.

J.T. said...

Hi Mat Salo

awww... thank you so much for that dedication. I am flattered. (extra onde-onde at KLCC for you. :D)

As I mentioned to Pi Bani, this long coffee break is putting too much caffeine in me. Got to get out of it soon ... well, as soon as I find a little more time for blogging again.

In the meantime, take care and hope you have a great 2008.

J.T. said...

Hello Nightwing

Happy New Year to you too.

oooo... Kit Kat. It has been a long time since I had a Kit Kat bar. I forgot all about that because I went totally dark chocolate.

Anyway, I hope 2008 has been good for you so far.

Angel Eyes said...

Happy New Year JT!

All the very best for 2008!

J.T. said...

Hello Trueblue

I did not go anywhere or will be away. It's just that I have been busy with moving stuff around.

Anyway, hope you are having a good start to 2008.

J.T. said...

Hi Zawi

No need for apologies. It is still not too late to wish a Happy New Year. :)

I hope 2008 brings you much health, wealth, love and joy.

J.T. said...

Hi Nyonya Penang

Thanks for the wishes. I hope you have a great 2008 too.

Hopefully when I stop to smell the roses, I don't get injured by the thorns. :D

J.T. said...

Hi Aiyah Nyonya

Happy New Year to you too. Hope you had a good holiday.

Take care.

J.T. said...

Hi Witchy sister :)

Happy New Year to you too. I hope 2008 holds lots of love and happiness for you.

J.T. said...

Hi Mush

Happy New Year to you and your family.

Thanks for your support and encouragement. I will return when I am good and ready. :)

P.S. Sorry I have not replied your email yet. I need a few more days.

J.T. said...

Hello Sarinah

It sure has been a long time since I have heard from you. So glad you are back. I hope everything went well with your move and that you are now settled in your new place.

Happy New Year to you and your family. Hope 2008 brings you lots of love, joy and prosperity.

NYC and Hartford in June? I hope you have a good time there. I have been to NY once but stayed in Queens for a day! :P I hope to go back there again (not Queens but NYC).

Hope you have a wonderful 2008.

JT,
A belated happy new year to you! What have you been up to? You appear to be quite busy!

J.T. said...

Hi KC

So nice to see you here. I will be back soon.

Hope all is well with you. :)

J.T. said...

Hello Blueberry

Happy New Year to you too.

I have been tied up with a big project at home since Christmas and found it impossible to get back to my blogging routine. I finally decided (on New Year's Eve) to give blogging a rest for a while until I can get things sorted out. I will return soon.

All the best for 2008.

Syaliza Abdul Rahman said...

Take care & hope to see you here soon.
