Happy New Year! =)

Well, it’s the start of a New Year. I decided on something a little different for the layout of this site. I hope people like it, because I might not want to change it again anytime soon lol.
I didn’t really do anything special for New Year’s Eve. Stayed home with the kids, working on this site mostly. Had Donovan blowing noise makers and throwing his arms in the air trying to shout “Happy New Year!” LoL pure comedy. Gregory was DETERMINED to stay up to watch the Times Square ball drop, but guess what? At 11:52, he layed down on the couch. I look over at 11:56, he is SOUND ASLEEP!! Haha! Well, there’s always next year. *chuckling*
So I was reading Rose‘s entry about New Year’s resolutions, and I have to agree with her. I always try to avoid making one, because I have this sinking feeling I won’t be able to fulfill it, anyway. Then it just seems as though the year starts off badly when I fail, and it can only go down from there. Yeah, I know, negativity. So I have a similar resolution to Rose (Thanks sis!). I am going to resolve to allow less negativity to sneak its way into my head and heart. Note, I didn’t say not ANY negativity, because THIS year I am not going to set myself up to fail. I have acquired a journal, and each and every day, whether I want to or not, whether I feel like it or not, I am going to write in it. An affirmation. Just one, if that’s all I can muster. Something positive. Encouraging. Self-aware. That’s all. Just something to remind me every day that there IS something worth living for, after all. Besides my kids even. And that thing is ME. Happy New Year all. =) It just might be a good one after all.
