New Year's Again
Dec. 31st, 2010 01:28 pmI've officially become a LJ lurker rather than poster... have very happily spent the last year reading my friend's list, learning things, laughing at the fabulous entries of people who have writing styles I admire. Me, lame writing style, I know, never really figured out that "wit" thing, too much explaining going on.
Anywho, it's New Year's Eve, and this time of year is always a bit iffy. On the one hand, celebration, friends, food, general fun. On the other hand, looking back at last year's resolutions, realizing you're an abject failure. Then there's the third hand, which this year, I'm glad to have re-found. I accomplished a LOT this year. Who cares if it wasn't on a resolution list. I have a fabulous partner who I love more every day. I've managed to stay at my job another year, no small feat when you acknowledge that you're barely capable at it and that's it. We've moved to a much nicer home, and it's a home now, not just an apartment. I've traveled abroad. I've made good friends, I've found something I truly enjoy in the SCA. I've sewed clothing, I've fed large quantities of people, and I'm planning an event.
So... screw the broken resolutions, set new ones, but most of all, make sure that sometime this year do something you can look back on and be proud of. That's my big resolution this year.
