I am not sure exactly how that helps, but I think it just means that I am off to a great start and only more good can come!

They were pretty terrified to enter the Year of the Beast! On Dec 31st, they counted down 10, 9, 8... worrying that all the candles would get blown out and not re-ignite... 7, 6, 5, scared that all the cows would go dry... 4, 3, 2, petrified that the ground would open them up and swallow them whole... 1!!!!! 666 came and went...everyone was ok.
