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.
