2012 Comes to a Close

Soon it will be 2013 and I have been reflecting a lot on my past and decisions for my future. I came across my blog and decided that I would make an effort to write my random thoughts on the pages within. Some, may not be fit to be print - and that is fine. That's the awesome part of the blogosphere - I can edit even once it is posted!

I had hoped I would be done with school and on my way to a new life. But, that hasn't happened yet. Finances have not been there for me and it is holding me up from finishing. I have big dreams and yet - my reality seems to fall short.

In July I began writing on my Facebook page things 5 things I am grateful for. I didn't know how long I would keep doing it - but I've only missed a day or two in that time frame. I would like to continue my gratefuls because they certainly keep me in check.

In the year ahead I will have some challenges. Just a few of which is that I will be up for reelection February/March for my State Council position as Secretary/Treasurer, in June for my Shop Steward position and in December for reelection for President of my Local Lodge. I love what I do for the membership of my union.

Well, I'm off to read in the New Year, yep - you read that right. I'm going to be reading as the New Year rings in without much of a fuss on my end.
