Happy New Year?

This is my first official post of 2009.
It’s the post where, if I follow other bloggers, I might review the highlights of 2008.
Or I could tell you how I am going to make 2009 divine.
But since I’ve never been a follower and 2009 is not giving off divine vibes on this 5th day…
I’m going to keep this short and sweet and instead tell you all that…
the house is un-trimmed.
Thank you darling children. And PhilBillPaul.
the basement is put back together
Thank you darling children. And PhilBillPaul.
the wiener dogs got a bath
Thank you darling Wizzy.
the kids are going back to school
Thank you Georgia school system.
I’m not really a resolution girl. I have a lot of lists and small goals and one of those is to pay attention to the little things every day this year.
How’s your New Year shaping up so far?
We’re off to a rough start… My oldest, “college-aged” child is quitting the school she was attending and moving back home… My middle child got tossed off a horse on 1-2-09 and broke her left arm about 2 inches above her elbow… My youngest isn’t doing anything too major but has a Dr. appointment on Friday… So, I get to miss 2 1/2 days of work on our first week back. The good news is: I still have a job, my husband still has a job, it’s only a broken arm, and hopefully the oldest will pull her ’stuff’ together and get a life plan going on here. Things will get better!
oh, no, Peggy. So sorry to hear about all your bad news. You are right though about putting it all in perspective. Having work to miss is definitely a good thing.
Our new year is off to a good start. I got a new car on Saturday and the kids went back to school and the hubby went back to work so my life is back to normal. Looking forward to lunch with a friend on Thursday, scrapbooking on Friday, Monster jam with the family this Saturday, and Bride Wars on Sunday with a bunch of girl friends and their daughters.
Have a safe trip, Sherra. I know this is not the right post but now you at least know I read it too!
