I’m not making a single resolution for 2010. Not a one. Mostly because I never keep them but also because I think it’s pointless. If you want to change something, why do you have to purpose to do it at the end of the year? Change it anytime you want! A lot of people are doing a review of their year….well I want to do a review of the decade. We’re starting a new decade! I remember the big hoopla 10 years ago over Y2K. Rememeber that?! HAH. I graduated high school in June 1999 and I can remember all of us saying our good byes and joking about Y2K and hoping that we don’t die. It was crazy. And now 10 years later, how things have changed.

I got married in 2001.

Had our first baby in 2002.

Built our first house in 2003.

Lost my dad in 2007.

Had our second baby in 2009.

And a WHOLE bunch of other crap all in between. Biggest technological blessing to me? Definitely my Blackberry. SMART PHONES. Yes. I can’t live without mine. I don’t know how I used to. Also- Wi-fi. We didn’t have that in our home until after 2000.

So, the other day a few lists of popular bloggers were released. I did not make either of those lists nor did I expect to. Wanna know what list I DID make? The list that I find the MOST accurate of good people who just want to blog and read blogs and NOT be these big time oh so popular bloggers. Most the people on this list are my friends and people whose blogs I read daily. Issa put out THIS LIST and honestly, it’s the best blogger list by far. Check it out. You won’t regret it.

So happy new year to all of you. I personally love New Years Eve. I love the anticipation. I’m ready to start a new year and start a new decade. Are you?

See you next year!

I swear time is going by so freakin fast. it feels like just yesterday i was announcing i was pregnant. and now i’m almost 31 weeks and SO ready to be done. lol go figure. i’ve been saying after new year i was gonna focus on the baby’s room. well it’s the new year now. last night i started washing all the old clothes from Nettie and all the new stuff i got for the baby. i did one load. and there’s still more. Thank God i’m having another girl. we also said after new year we’d focus on getting our house refinanced….and so that’s another thing weighing on my shoulders this morning. there’s so much to do and like NO time to do it. and we’re such procrastinators. both of us. makes it hard to get things done.

the thing is i don’t get to quit work. i have to come back here after 3 months of maternity leave. that’s a whole other post entirely that i’ll work on this week BUT we still have to refinance so that we’ll be able to get by for those 3 months. so honestly, i just need to get the ball rolling. so does Hubs.

when really, all i wanna do is go to sleep til march 6 when Nimmie will be here and have someone else take care of all this. yes i’m THAT tired and THAT uncomfortable. already.

i think she may weigh 10 lbs when she’s born. don’t quote me on that though.

so i hope you all had a great new year. ours was fun! we jumped our way into 2008!

so Hubs woke up yesterday morning at like 4:30 sick as a dog. he’s got a crazy fever of like 102 that wont go away so i’m all paranoid now thinking i’m gonna come home today and he’s gonna be dead. so i’m calling him every 2 hours and i’m leaving work early…

i should have just stayed home with him today. *sigh*

but i DO hope yall had a great new year! yay for 08!

2007 was such an emotional rollercoaster of a year. i started off the year in canada with my friend Tehra and i swore the rest of the year was gonna be kick ass because of it. i traveled a lot this year…our trips to costa rica and tahoe were awesome. i got to hang out with awesome friends both here in town and the ones that i have scattered all over the country. Nettie started school. we dealt with the stresses of listing our house on the market. but the death of my dad—-out of all the other things i did this year, him dying is the one thing that sticks out and totally defined my year. he died on my birthday. i wanted to go home to visit and it be a fun trip and instead i was home sooner than i expected to bury my father. and 5 mos later i’m still dealing with this. i probably will be for quite a while….

resolutions you ask? i’m totally NOT a fan of new years resolutions as i never stick to them. but one goal i DO have for this coming year—to freakin stick up for myself more. i dont know why i dont think that i’m worth it. that other people are more important than myself always…that if they insult me or take advantage of me that its ok because at least i’m being the bigger person. sometimes being the bigger person isn’t about keeping your mouth shut. i make myself sick sometimes with how i am with others—how i react and handle things when people are mean to me. i really REALLY want to work on that. we’ll see how i do.

anyway i hope you have a fabulous new year no matter how you celebrate. we, however, will be partying it up. OUR style:)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

i wasn’t going to take a pic of my coach bags because i thought how retarded and who cares—honestly. but then i thought, why not?! because I care lol. the new one is the one on the left in the back

so its friday again. i sorta like this working 2 days a week business. i wish i could do that all the time. i work on monday but i plan to leave early to head to our friends house. omg, i can NOT wait til new year. i dunno why but new years eve is so fun to me…like the build up is such a rush to me. i know 2008 is gonna be a heck of a lot better for me than 2007…although i did have fun this past year. i’ll have to take time to post a reflection on this past year…..

maybe..LOL
