Well, 2009 is just 24 hrs & 4 minutes away. I can't believe 2008 is almost gone. Where has time gone? More importantly, is it just me or does anyone remember when we reached that big milestone, the MILLENIUM!!! How is it that was almost 9 years ago?
As I look back on this past year, what have I accomplished? Did I get what I wanted out of '08? Will I wonder if it was not enough? Sure, the biggest was having Ethan. Can never deny giving birth as an accomplishment. But what about all the in-betweens? Where could I have been more useful? More productive? Did I have enough patience? Why is it that whenever a milestone is upon us, we always look to "what could have been."?
I have already started my list of tried & true, ready to go new years resolutions. Ya know, the norm. Be more organized, lose weight, spend more time with the kids, get more romantic time with the hubby, achieve world peace, yada yada yada. EVERY YEAR I say the same thing & every year I stick to it for a few days, but then old habits fall back into place.
But no, I will stand tall, smile & say "This year! This year will be different! I will prove myself to myself this year!". Well...we will have to see what comes on January 2, 2009!
