Happy New Year!

Well hello everyone :) This is my first post of 2012 & I am pretty excited about it. This year is already off to a great start. I spent my New Years Eve with my best friend Alexes. Unlike last year, I actually remember what happened on this night! We're already into the 5th day of this year! I remember when my Aunt Dollie use to tell me once you graduate high school the years fly by. I use to laugh at my aunt and say that wasn't true. Sure enough I feel like the years have been flying by me since that day in June when I graduated from high school. I like so many other people made a list of New Years resolutions, but within these couple of days I have added a few that I need to accomplish for myself. One of my goals is to keep in touch with the family that I have in other states. The once a month phone call or occasional facebook message is not okay with me any longer! One of my cousins moved to Oklahoma to be a nurse, two of my cousins live in Oregon, & my Aunt Johnna's family lives in Naples,Florida. ( I have to give a shout out to my Aunt J who follows my blog avidly, adore her!) Another one of my goals would be to become a more level headed person. I've always been one of those people that will go off the second I hear or see something that I do not like. I blame that on my dad's side of the family seeing as their all hot heads, but that's why I love them so much. That leads me to my last new resolution. For a couple of years now I have let people walk all over me & I have said nothing because I was scared to loose them. This year is the year I finally change that. I have gone off on my share of people, but for the wrong reasons. As I posted above, I am a hot head, but only if you do something that I don't like to the people that matter the most to me. I also found a new quote that I love! In case no one knew, I love quotes! I always seem to find the one's that fit my life perfectly! This is my favorite one at the moment. "Adopt the pace of nature, her secret is patience." Love that! Anyways, now that I have written these all down, it's time I share my original top 10. Hope you guys all made great goals for this new year & stick to them. I have been following mine pretty well. I cut out soda & I thought that would be my hardest one, but honestly it hasn't been too bad. If anyone wants to share their goals, I would love to see them.
