So I am a Slacker

So here it is...already the 5th day of Feburary......and I haven't posted a single thing. This will probably be a random post of things. Truth be told, I've been quite busy and more lazy. The first two weeks of January were a blur......I took what is known as a Winter-minimester course for my Master's (not necessary, I might add, but I was really interested in the subject matter) which just about did me in both emotionally and physically.
In addition, I am not a happy camper here at my place of employment....but with the way things are......I guess I just have to leave my big girl panties on and suck it up. I don't know how much longer I'll be able to keep those things up though!

This final semester of Grad School is a real drag.....not enjoying it. Internship is a drag and I absolutely hate being taken advantage of.....which is what is happening. Can we save Free Labor....?
Haven't really been able to stick to my resolutions.......I seem to exude negativity and I just hate that. It seems to swirl around me and I ingest it constantly.......can't seem to leave it behind. I truly don't understand why...why...why I do that??? Where's the gratitude I promised myself to always remember? Sometimes I wish I could just escape....and not think or worry at all.

Just celebrated our 5th Wedding Anniversary......still can't believe that one.....it certainly has been a roller coaster ride.....but he is growing into the man I knew he would become.

Health not so good.....but finally starting to address it by going to the dr. Which I might add was a waste of time, because all I got was a referral to a specialist....waited two hours to be told that....DUH!!!

Sometimes I wish I could just be a stay at home mom......(to a teenager????does that even count). I loathe where I work at....I really do. Oh well. Just got to keep going!!!
Until next time.!!!

Happy 2009!!!

Well, here it is once again, a brand new year brimming with wonderful possibilities.....yet part of me does not want to look back at 2008, for many mistakes were made over and over again.....however, I do recognize that I am abundantly blessed with a beautiful daughter, devoted husband, and loving parents. While I do not want to look back for various reasons, I am excited and eager at looking forward....starting fresh and learning from the multiple mistakes I made this past year. For one, I will conscientiously try to live my life with abundance and gratitude and cast away seeds of resentment, anger, jealousy and frustration that seem to have consumed me in 2008. I WILL BE GRATEFUL EVERYDAY OF MY LIFE. Having a positive attitude is everything, and I for one need to keep that always in check. I will thank my Lord and Savior everyday of my life for the many blessings he has bestowed upon me and my little family. I believe these very simple reminders will make 2009 so much more the better for myself and my family.

Last night was a wonderfully quiet night with my two favorite people in the world; daughter and hubby. Watched movies, ate way, way too much, laughed, joked and saw the ball drop in New York!!!! Drank some bubbly, as did Danielle (just a small amount) gave my hubby a giant, passionate kiss and called it a night around 1:30 a.m. Somehow the bubbly gave me a headache and I couldn't really fall asleep comfortably. It truly was a wonderful night. I am so blessed.

I am also looking forward to many, many exciting things that I hope will be happening in our lives, which will be the future of many more blog posts to come.
