I Don't Know...and for once I am fine with that

I do not know what the year 2007 holds for me. I like to plan and know things. After last year, I learned that YOU can not plan your life. You can try, but God will do His Will no matter what you try to do. 2006 certainly did not go down the way *I* planned. No where near it. As a matter of fact, I do not think one thing *I* planned for in the year 2006 came to be.

I know that 2007 holds my ten year wedding anniversary. I know it means my kids will be turning three and seven. I know that Mark will finally join me in the thirties. I know that the sun will rise every morning and set every night. Other than that, I know very little else about how this year will unfold. And for once I am okay with that.

So much can happen and change in even a month, I can not imagine what is in store for TWELVE months. I look forward to it. All of it. Good and bad. Easy and difficult. Fun and sad.

As Mark said a couple weeks ago, any year spent with him and the kids can not be a bad year. (only he said he would never say a year spent with me and the kids was a bad year.) All I know is that I will press on, not matter what comes our way.

Welcome, Little One

Both mommy and baby are doing very well. These are just a few from earlier today. More to follow later.

And Just Like That.....

I made the fatal mistake of reading reviews and articles before watching a single episode of the show.  I knew full well I would watch every episode regardless.  I read anyway.  Spoilers? Not bothered.   Let me give some back story here.   At 17/18 my dream had been to go to a big city (Chicago was my thinking at the time), get my degree in journalism/editing/publishing and go work at a big time magazine.  Keep in mind we are talking about the mid 90's here so the idea that magazines would cease to be relevant was not even on my radar.  I had been editor of my high school yearbook and unbeknownst to me at the time, we were actually doing the yearbook by coding and would get printouts hoping we had coded copy correctly.  I just typed the copy I was supposed to type with the weird little codes that had been given to me on a piece of paper.  I would later discover this was actually HTML code we were doing.  Who knew?  This fu...

I Need A Break Before *I* Break

Damn.  There is so much swirling around in my little brain.....So. Much. I am getting ready to enter my most personally difficult time of the year.  Emotionally.  I am also entering my most difficult semester (and LAST!) of college.  Oh, and trying to train for another half marathon.  There are many days as of late that I am not sure how I'm doing it or even why at times.  I am trying to keep it together, trying to keep a balance.  But sometimes I am not sure I am doing so well.  With so many plates to juggle, even if they are ceramic plates, I often feel as though I am dropping one (or more).   I am trying to figure out what I want in life.  What is important to me.  What I need versus what I want.  And how it all fits together with various parts of my life.  I'm learning that sometimes what you think is important is not so much and things that you didn't pay much mind to are actually more importan...
