2014!!

It has been 14 years since the millennium!  What!?!  Time sure does fly.  And here we are again, ushering in a new year.  A fresh start full of endless opportunities.  But, ushering in a new years forces us to reflect on the year we leave behind.  It is safe to say that 2013 is a year I will never forget.  It was the year I finally started working towards my career as a librarian.  It was the year the Red Sox won the World Series, the third in my lifetime and eighth overall.  It was the year we learned what the fox says.  And, most importantly, 2013 gave me my beautiful niece, Mackenzie.  Who knows what 2014 has in store for me.  A new job?  A new boyfriend?  A new apartment?  But, I look forward on going on this exciting ride.

I hope 2014 grants all your hopes and dreams!!  

2011!!!

Go to the gym 3 times a week, build the new edition on the house, fall in love.
I usually do not make New Year's resolutions. I'm sure part of it is because, in most cases, they don't work out, but it's mostly because I never wanted anything bad enough to resolve to do it indefinitely. 2011, however, is a year I want to be in my heart till I'm too old to remember anything, so I made a few resolutions.

1: Check off at least two things off my bucket list
2: Get a publisher to read my children's stories
3: Find a full-time job
4: Drive on the highway
5: Read at least 2 or 3 books a month


I have read that is better to not share your resolutions with anyone because sometimes once you say it out loud, you feel you have completed the task. But I think of these more as goals than resolutions so I won't kick myself if they are not completed by December 31st, 2011!!

I hope everyone has a safe and happy new year. Make it one to remember!!
