It seems like only days ago that I was looking forward to 2005 and now the year has come and gone. 365 days is like a long time but with each passing year the time moves more quickly. It might have something to do with getting older but it just might be the pace of our lives.
Looking back this has been a good year. There were many achievements personally and for my family. My daughter successfully made the transition to college and is anxious to start her second semester at Marquette. She has many new friends and one very special one. At work we've acheived some great accomplishments and now are moving forward more strategically with plans for the future. Personally this has been a year of growth, in learning to care and to be patient to wait for the good things that are to come. I have made many good friendships in my short time here and feel that this is truly where I belong.
What's ahead? Well, last year for the first time I tried resolutions and most of them never happened, not for want of trying. So this year I'm going back to my tried and true approach to the new year and just be open to the possibilities. Not trying to make anything happen but celebrate and embrace it when it does. 2005 was a good year and 2006 will be an even better one.
Good wishes to all who stop by to read my bog....Happy New Year!
