Happy New Year!

Wow! I can't believe another year has passed us by...it went sooo quickly. 2009 was a Pretty good year for our family. I finally got to move to Wisconsin to be with the Commander...we bought a house ...we sold a house....we bought some land and started building a house....I got to go to Florida with the Co-ed....and visit my family in Biloxi...I got to attend my best friend's daughter's Wedding in Virginia( which means I also got to see my best friend!!) ...and I we all got to visit with the Co-ed and her boyfriend and the Recruit in Oklahoma this past week!

I'm not really one for 'resolutions"...I never follow thru with them....after about a week I break them and forget about them so I've given up making them. Last year did come across the idea of have a goal or theme for the year to live by. Last year it was "Enjoy Life" and I think I did a pretty good job of of that last year. I have to say 2009 was one of my best years.

It's taken me a while to come up with this years theme...there are so many things I'd like to accomplish and work on this year. I finally decided on "Love'...yeah...kinda basic and something you would think is already a goal or theme in a person's life....but like many I tend to put 'love' on the back burner and let other things get in the way. I like that 'love' can encompass many things as well. Loving our families and friends...showing love...loving ourselves...taking care of ourselves....being kinder to those we love and strangers as well. It can even be incorporated into decorating and fasion! Granted the year hasn't started out all that "Lovely'.....for some reason Commander and I have been 'at' each other all day....and NOT in a 'good' way.

Another reason that maybe I need to focus on "Love' and not let one bad day ruin the whole year?
