I realize I haven't posted anything for the new year. Now that I'm plopped in front of the TV watching CMT while the wind is constantly knocking out the power, this seems as good a time as any. Joe has left for a 4 day trip to Las Vegas. I'm sure he will write all about it once he returns.
The media has begun its typical "resolution overload". It's annoying to have everyone talk about making resolutions and in the same breath talk about how you're going to fail at most of them. Thanks for the encouragement, people. I stopped making resolutions. The new year is a chance for a new start, but a person shouldn't us that as an excuse. All those people who claim they will quit smoking, start eating better, or whatever on January 1st really aren't ready to make the change. You don't need a special day to kick it off, just the motivation. For example, this fall I realized I no longer find joy in my career the way I once did. That's when I began to put a plan into action to begin to seek out a new career. I am fortunate to have the support of a wonderful husband in whatever I decide I want to do.
Alas, it is 2010. I'm not immune to wishing for this to be a better year. So, here we go...
