I'm me again!

If you have had the pleasure of talking to me (on the phone or in person) these past two weeks you would have thought I was turning into a man!  What I thought was just a bad cold turned out to be one crazy long case of the flue.  Luckily I was able to pass on all of the icky puky stuff, but my throat took one heck of a beating.  It's now the 16th, two weeks after it first struck, and I'm finally sounding like me again!  I never thought I'd actually miss the sound of my voice.  That sounds a little vain, but I don't really care at this point. 

I don't know about you, but this new year has already started out a little on the crazy side.  Work has been a little stressful with my Regionals and VP's knocking on our door every week.  They get so demanding some times.  Luckily they like me, so I'm usually in the clear.  Life at home has been so back and forth with Bryan's job being so unreliable.  The landscaping industry is very temperamental when it comes to weather, and it's becoming a huge pain in our butts.  Thankfully, the little man has been doing really well.  Scary to believe but he is actually on the verge of starting to walk!  He is able to let go of the furniture and balance himself for long periods of time.  He's even tried to take a step, but he usually falls right after it.  Looks like I'm going to have to find myself one of those baby gates like they had on The Rugrats to keep track of him!

I mentioned in my last post that I was working on putting together my new years resolutions for this year.  I'm sure most of you could probably care less what my plans are, but for those of you who are interested, here they are:

• Make time every week to talk/catch up with a friend
• Learn a new phrase every week in a different language (currently working on Spanish)
• Take photos of Logan every week of this year
• Start a work out program and keep up with it for at least 1 full month or longer
• Go on a vacation using the money I saved from coupons, shopping sales, donating clothes, etc.
• Do something different every week on my days off
• Organize my closets and cupboards
• Start a once a month cooking club
• Become better at saying "no"

Most of these don't sound like anything too spectacular, but I believe they will help make my life a little less stressful.  I know that I can do anything that I put my mind to.  Well, here goes nothing! :) 

I hope everyone is having a great week.  Take care of yourself and each other.
