Wow…hard to believe that 2009 only has about 6 hours left…how is that even possible? This year has been full of emotions. Here are some of my highs and lows from the last year:
- I lost 45 lbs
- Then I gained about 15 lbs back
- I struggled with my Mom’s passing
- I had to help clean out Mom’s house she shared with Grandma because she couldn’t afford to live there alone. I felt guilty for everything that I had to throw away or get rid of, but knew they would be better used by donating them to someone who needed them
- I heard my biological clock ticking…and I realized I wanted to be a Mother
- I came across a wonderful group of ladies at Shrinking Jeans…that often spoke of other ladies…who were linked to other ladies (you get the idea) that I have come to admire and relate to in so many ways…they are going thru many of the same things that I am, and if they are not, their life experiences make me smile and laugh and give me hope that there are still really genuine people out there…they just live in a different area code
- I got a promotion at work
- I was scared of working for an automotive supplier in this economy and tried to pinch pennies and be responsible
- I started blogging on a regular basis, even joining up with You Capture and exposed myself to the entire internetz!
- I started tweeting
- I’ve had the most money in my checking account ever
- I’ve been ashamed of how little I had let my checking account get down to
- I started to run….almost 5 minutes at a time! That may not sound like much but try it…it’s harder than you think if you are not a runner
- I finished my 1st 5K….not official but it still counts!
- My cousin had a beautiful baby girl in August, another cousin announced she was due in April with a girl and another cousin just delivered a baby girl yesterday….thus making my biological clock tick even louder…and of course the clock has a pink background
- My best friend had twins! Of course they were beautiful baby girls!
- I loved my husband more than ever as we celebrated our 5 year anniversary
- I couldn’t believe how annoyed I got at my husband sometimes
- I made my first apron
- I cried more times than I can count
- I felt loved and am blessed to have such a big wonderful family
I’m ready for 2010…a new year, heck a whole new decade! I am going to reach my goal weight this year. I hope to blessed with a baby this year. I am going to stop and appreciate all of those people in my life that make it better this year. I am going to do things just because I want to, because I deserve it.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE…thanks for stopping by and reading my ramblings from time to time. Your comments mean a lot to me. I hope we can help each other thru all the highs and lows of 2010!
