New Years 2007
Well, it is the eve of the eve of New Years 2007. How was Christmas for everyone. I have been one busy person. I did finally get my kids gifts finished and in the mail in plenty of time. I got the rests of the gifts wrapped on Christmas Eve. <G>
On Christmas Eve, I went with my youngest son and my boyfriend to his sister's house. It was nice. Since the summer time, they have accepted me in their brother's life. He is a bit older than me. I don't think of our ages most of the time. Lately, though, it has been drilled into my head as his health has been failing. I don't know if I have another year with him. I just enjoy each day that God blesses me with.
Christmas day, we with to Steve's brother's house. Steve and I are hoping to have the family get-together at our place next year. Right now, we are cramped, but we are doing some remodeling this coming year.
Well, I have developed a new addiction. Eggnog. Yep. Fortunately, it only comes out once a year. I weighed yesterday. In the last two weeks, I have gained seven pounds. Yikes! So, the eggnog is gone. Or at least, I am trying to make it gone. Right now, I am having withdrawals. I don't know if I can withdrawal without giving in. I am taking it minute by minute. I thought I would write on this blog trying to get my mind off of the eggnog. What happens, I write about it. :-)
Isn't technology great? Right now, as I type this, I am online chatting with my daughter in TX on msn. I am sitting in ID. I moved here in 2005. Left TX in 2002.
Are you ready for the New Year? I'm not really ready. Oh I have my goals in place. I don't make resolutions to be broken in a few days. I set a couple of goals a month, then work on them throughout the year.
Some of my goals include writing more regularly. This year, I got more steady in my writing. Then life happens. Steve had a heart attack and open heart surgery. Since then, I have hardly done anything concerning anything. Then the seizures started. Then episodes the doctors don't know what causes them. Not good. It scares me when I think of how his health has gone down since summer. I pray for him daily.
Some of my goals for the new year are: writing more. I want to finish the two correspondance courses that I am taking. I want to make my first sale in my writing. I want to finish my second book and get it ready to submit.
I have others like financial goals, spiritual goals, etc. Those are my writing goals. What are yours?
take care and have a Happy New Year.
