Guilty Conscious...and I Can't Sleep...

lol...I had fully intended to make my FIRST 2013 post on Jan 1....

2 days later here I am....





lol...better late than never huh???  Good thing I don't make 

New Year's resolutions...  more...GOALS...along with DREAMS...

and every day...is a new chance...to get it right.

So New Year's day was a nice relaxing day off work...

did some crafts....worked on my "Etsy" shop...which is JUST 

getting started (will post the link SOON!)...watched a lil 

football (U of M lost in the LAST few seconds :( ...) and yes...

RELAXED!!!

January....and I'm READY for THIS!!!.....

      
The 303MP out of Jackson....they're coming home SOON!!!

...and I have a very special friend to Welcome Home!!! 

Looking forward to seeing that smile again~

In the news....well...we diverted the 'fiscal cliff' in the 9th hour...

however...looks like due to increased social security taxes...

my paycheck will have less in it this year...
  
   

Oh Well....like so many others... I JUST KEEP TRYING!!!

Retirement...you know...that 'someday dream'...keeps moving 

farther down the road...

BUT...we can still dream!!!  :)





For now...I'll  just savor the 'moments' whenever I can grab

them!!!  

So...here we go 2013!!!  





2012....was a rough year for me....financially...emotionally...

health wise....  BUT...It's a new year....and I'm ready to see what 

the year will hold....





I hope 2013 holds an 'abundance of blessings'...for you...

and for me <3

~Peace..

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!






I can't believe yet another year is coming to a close....   2012 is almost over....

what will the new year hold???   

The end of a year....the start of a new... always a good time to reflect...

count your blessings....make plans...set goals...DREAM....

ahhhh.... yes...goals...(I'm NOT so good at resolutions...lol but GOALS I can do! haha)

Theme for 2013: ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE

Yes...because there is always something in live to be grateful for...thankful for..

blessings abound if you JUST take the time to look around and appreciate!!!



Doesn't get any simpler than that does it???  Not ALWAYS easy to do... we tend to stress ourselves out

with worry....instead of enjoying our life....we constantly try to please others...while it's GOOD to 

have plans....goals....dreams....we need to make the most of EACH day as it comes along.  



Yes...There is ALWAYS something to be Grateful for!!! 

So What WILL the Next Year Hold???

Regardless of plans....goals...dreams.....

Don't get sooooooo caught up that you for get 

the 'simple' joys of each day...





That's a list I LOVE!!!!  

I found this idea the other day....and I'm most definitely going to do this one!!!


What a great way to not only reflect now and then & write down

something 'good' that made your day...

and then at the end of the year...

reflect...remember...and SMILE!!!


 While 2012 comes to a close....Take some time

to reflect...to dream...

most of all to be grateful...

for the wonderful joys of life...

WISHING YOU ALL A HAPPY, JOYOUS, and BLESSED NEW YEAR!!!

;)

Somehow...If you wake up each morning...

right direction doesn't it!!!




No matter what our circumstances in life...

In Life...
Our Friends & Family...




Even in the Beautiful Simplicity of a Flower....



Live in the present...YES!!!
But hold on to those Hopes and Dreams...
They are your Future!!!
They keep us going....
don't they???



And ALWAYS...ALWAYS...
Remember to
FOLLOW YOUR HEART!!!

Don't RUSH to make changes...or 
take that "CHANGES ...next EXIT"
too soon!!!


 


Absolutely...
My Favorite Prayer...
The One I Hold On To...
The One that Helps get me through tough times...
The One I Cling to when struggling 
with a decision...
The One that Helps Guide me to that feeling of
PEACE...




S M I L E

And while it isn't always PERFECT...
LIFE IS GOOD
