2009 was not a banner year. New President, new policies, new economy, new worries, new struggles ....and as always marching constantly closer to my inevitable mid-life crisis. Here is hoping 2010 shapes up a little better.
FOr the most part I don't 'do' resolutions. Why 'resolve' to do something? Way to start the new year by setting yourself up for failure. I figure either do something or don't. I confess I am approaching this year a little differently. I think partly because last year was not a great year, I am ready to put it in the history books. If I want 2010 to be better I think that I am going to take a more pro-active approach. Rather than assuming that life is going to happen to more, I am going to work to get what I want out of this year. Do you suppose that if I am more disciplined I will find life less overwhelming and out of my control? Perhaps if I make time to have a quiet time I will wonder less why my relationship with God seems to be stagnating. Hmmm....time will tell.
One of my resolutions is to blog more. Shouldn't be hard to succeed there since I think I blogged roughly 6 times last year. But my kids are growing up soo fast (*sniffles*) and more of that has to be documented and reflected on before it slips away. So ....for starters....
here is the birdhouse that my gorgeous goose made with her father this long Holiday weekend. Do you think she had a good time? :-) I will have to upload more pics later because it's not really done...it's going to be pink.

Aww, I'm all depressed now. :) I hope 2010 is better.
I think 2009 was an amazing year for us. We have all grown and changed so much. We have a long ways to go of course, but I'm learning to see and appreciate forward progress.
And, one thing I realized, looking back, was that the most important change in our life was from my own personal spiritual growth. We had a lot of other important changes, but that was the most far-reaching.
I'll be praying that you are able to get back into a vibrant relationship with the Creator and Sustainer of life. It makes all the difference in the world (after all, he knows all the secrets to help in the other areas of life *grins*). *hugs* Let me know if I can be of help.
