So, today is the day I start my new blog. We will see how long it lasts! My goal is to post something every day and have an accounting of my life for a year.
2010 was the hardest and most eye-opening year of my life. There were lots of painful events, but lots of great things too! I have learned just how truly blessed I am. I have gone through a lot of ups and downs but I have made it through. I am excited to embark upon a new year and see what it has in store for me. God, my family, and friends have seen me at my worst, and now I am ready for everyone, including myself to see me at my best.
This blog will be documenting not only daily activities and whatever I have on my mind but also a gratitude list. I will list one thing daily that I am grateful for. So, here goes....
January 1, 2011, I am grateful for second chances. If it weren't for everyone believing in me when I was at my worst this past year, I don't know where I would be right now. I promise not to let anyone down like that ever again!
Events of the day: So today was a fun day! First of all it started at Midnight by wishing my boys.. Timothy and Rahim... a Happy New Year! I am so blessed to have such great kids (and an "adopted" one.. :) Finally hit the bed at about 2:45. Later this morning I met up with my good friend Barb for a day of shopping. It has been a long time since I spent so much time in so many stores! What a fun day, and to make it even better, most of my purchases were with gift cards! This evening was a quiet one at home with Kate and Tim. I think this is the first night since Kate got home from school that she was home all evening! LOL Oh to be a college kid again! Now as I lie here in bed typing this up, I have my little buddy Garfield in his usual spot by my side. A great way to end a super day!
