.. and Nick and I are sitting here on each of our laptops watching Dick Clark's special. As you can see I never did the choose joy challenge. It has been hard to choose joy this holiday season. Though some special and some anon people did help Christmas be better for the kids and us.
Even so, I am in a funk. Thirteen days from now it will be one year since my father left this world and it is really effecting me. In one way I am so upset to be getting close to that "anniversary" but in another way I am happy to be 20 min away from being out of 2008 and all the misery it has brought to my life. We need a good 2009.
I do still need to post my Christmas letter and card... will do that sometime... I have been rather tired with working and all.
For those of you out there, Happy New Year.
C-Ya!

Happy 2008!
Hey all and Happy New Year!!!
It is now 2008, yea! Time for new beginnings. I tell you I have some things I would love to start fresh on!!
I was thinking to myself what goals I have for this year. Goals sound so much better then resolutions. Of course I want to lose the baby weight from being pregnant with Carter. I did it with the other two, I should be able to with him. And I would love to find a way to earn more money for the family. It has been hard with being a sahm and not contributing financially (though Nick and I know that I do contribute in other ways). This is the time of year that it would work out for me to work and who can't use more money. I would like to stay off the computer more, because we all know how much I love it. And I do think that is something that has gotten easier to do since having the baby. And there is always that procrastination issue I have. I should probably take some baby steps and get better at doing things right away.
As for 2007, I did complete some goals (at least from my "things I want to do" thing in my sidebar). We did have another baby. And of course we all love Carter so much. We all got passports. Though in this day and age it is almost a need if you ever want to go anywhere. We did go some place tropical and that was NICE. And I did get a laptop, which is making life a lot easier. I mean this is getting to be an anti-destop computer world. (Of course this makes it easier to be on the computer).
So who knows what 2008 will hold for me and my family. Of course I hope for only good things. My biggest prayer is that my Dad gets healthy and stays that way and we can celebrate many a new year together.
So, raise a glass to you and yours this new year.
