Wow, what a
year! A lot has happened and there is so much more to come.
I have to admit,
in my deep and dark thoughts, I was hoping the world would end on Dec 21st.
This is a cruel and thoughtless world we live in – I state this because the
holidays is a time of the year when I am so rudely reminded how my own family
doesn’t care about anyone other themselves but yet I still went out and
purchased gifts for them all, served a lovely dinner in my home, put on a smile
and pretended like all was hunky-dory. Thank you world for the respect I receive
from the people who are supposed to be the most supportive and loving
individuals in my life. However, they don’t matter at the end of the day, only
my husband and two cats that are here for me everyday and truly love and
support me on my good days and bad days.
Every year I
make a list of resolutions – I call it my “accomplishment list”. And every year
I complete some and some get pushed to the following year. The 2012 list was
almost completed with the exception of one item – run a 5k race. Now this has
graced my list for the past two years, and for 2013 it is on the top of my list.
The treadmill is ready and by the time its spring where I live (can’t run in
knee-deep snow) I’ll be ready for the local marathon. There are other
accomplishments listed such as complete the second installment in the Bloodlust Series and travel to another country (haven’t been on a vacation in two years).
With every
passing year, new and exciting things happen - let 2013 be the year of truths
and adventure.
