Bitter-sweet...

"We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives... not looking for flaws, but for potential." ~Ellen Goodman

"For last year's words belong to last year's language and next year's words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning."

I have made no official resolutions for this new year, because they always seem to be forgotten faster they are made. But this year I'm not making resolutions, but more what I would call vows. I have vowed to myself to adapt some life changing habits. Like always eating a healthy diet and staying in shape. Not just for my weight but for my health and happiness also. And most of all I vow to not take the little things for granted.

This past year has been a bitter-sweet one for my husband and I. We have been through some somewhat trying times financially, which are still not over completely because I ended up being laid off for the past month and probably until Feb. Which I have to say that I am very much enjoying my time off, just hate being broke. But for the sweet part of this past year, my husband got a great new job in Aug. which he loves, and I thank the Lord everyday for that. So I know that we are truly Blessed .

So my wish to everyone is a sweet New Year without the bitter.
