New Years Day 2010

Hi There,

It's New Years Day, a time for reflection and future planning. I have noticed that this is the first year I remember hearing so repetitively how the past year sucked, and how happy everyone is that it is over. I do pride my self in my eternal positivity and finding joy in everything. But I must admit I find it rather depressing how happy people are at the passing of time.

I do have to remind myself that my own Christmas Newsletter began with declaring 2009 "The year that should have sucked, but didn't" I find that the hardest thing I have to accept in other people is that they do not have my positive outlook.

So as I reflect on my experiences in 2009 I realize that it is the first time since I was approximately eight years old that I did not document my life in some form.

And it makes me worry for who ever it is that will be making a movie about my life when I am an old old woman, or gone from this world, what will they say about 2009?

In honor of that future person, I find myself starting to babble again. Admittedly my babbles were never super consistent, weeks could go by and I would not send my long boring e-mails to those on my babble list. But I always came back. So even though, gulp, 8 long months have gone by. I am back.

So since last year I was so un-disciplined in my babbles. I am going to make keeping up with my Babble an official New Years Resolution. Which is nice because as I look at my resolution page in my planner, the last two years the lists looked very similar. And I only checked one thing off each list!


Resolutions 2008
Get weight under 200 pounds
Apply for Survivor
Empty CA Storage Unit
Not be so snappy at Ron (check)

Resolutions 2009
Get weight under 200 pounds
Apply for Survivor
Empty CA Storage Unit (check)
Finnish my book

I do have to admit, I am closer then ever to achieving the first thing on both lists, however it still needs to go on 2010.....Survivor I would never survive because we all know how grumpy I am when I don't eat, and lets face it, I cry way too much. I don't want to be that girl that spent the whole show crying! But actually applying is still a goal. So it stays on.....The book will most likely forever be a work in progress, but I am over 100 pages in so that is exciting! However it is still a work in progress, so it stays on.....So here is my list for 2010

Resolutions 2010
Get weight under 200 pounds
Apply for Survivor
Finnish my book
Keep up on my babble

So thanks for hanging in with me. Cheers to a grand and amazing 2010, I personally think that everyone deserves it.
