The living room white board holds an omnipresent position in my family’s household. Every Saturday my Dad would erase last week’s calendar and replace it with the next. With a family of six, he sees us as a small business of sorts.

My little sister just told me that the white board hasn’t been used since the start of the year. It has some wise pearls of wisdom that I don’t even remember writing.

We only have two and a bit months left to this year. Can you believe it? Make it count.

After all, 2009 is the year of the hard ass.

It’s practically written in stone. Have you been a hard ass so far?
