Happy New Year!
Hello again. Hello. I've just got to let you know. Sorry, that was a little Lionel Richey. Once again I did not journal at all while working and am now here to write one entry while on winter break. Probably won't be back until March.
This break has gone unexpectedly slow. I can't believe that. It's not like we haven't been busy, we have. It's not like it is a dreary time--it's not. The days leading up to Christmas are great. I like shopping and "finishing up" Christmas shopping. I like seeing all the gifts under the tree. I don't know why it seems to have gone slow. I won't mind getting back to school Monday, I don't think. I won't mind because in two short (hopefully) months it will be spring break. Now I agree, January can move on the pokey side, but February goes by swiftly. It's my birthday month so maybe that helps, but it goes quickly then March--ugh! I hate March. I will hate it a little less this year since I'm on break for 3 of its disappointing weeks. Every year (I'm slow) I expect March to be warmer and it never is. There are warmer days, but when your expectations are for 75 degree weather and no wind, you tend to be disappointed.
I'm difficult, here's why...
I find myself not wanting to be busy--Aaron's swim meets and concerts, Nathan's concerts, other evening and weekend activities. But, I know, logically time goes by faster when I'm busy so I find myself pushing myself into activities and I always enjoy them. So the moral of the story is....keep very busy during January and February and March will be here in no time at all.
Resolutions-who needs 'em?
I know some things I need to do, but doing it for a New Years resolution doesn't take care of it. I need to just do them for the benefits they will bring. If having resolutions work, go for it. Usually they don't.
I feel like I'm writing in short choppy sections.
More later when I'm flowing!
