Resolutions?

Most people come up with one or a few New Year's Resolutions each year. If most people are like me, they probably don't get very far with these goals, and usually the resolutions are pretty much the same year after year. I think my very vague New Year's Resolution is going to be this:

Do everything I can to become a better person, all around.


Of course there are LOTS of small, more detailed STEPS that are included in this very broad resolution. However, I don't want to state each of these steps on here or anywhere really. I don't want to have a very "measurable" resolution, if that makes sense. However, I will keep record of what I consider to be small accomplishments and steps that will help lead to this New Year's Resolution. At the end of the year, instead of measuring how well I did, I will simply reflect on any accomplishments I made, instead of dwelling on the goals I did not meet.

As I say, I am a work in progress. Maybe I should stop being SO hard on myself, and give myself credit once in awhile. :)

When in Eureka......

This year for New Year's Eve my husband encouraged me to do something fun. As soon as I mentioned the possibility of New Year's in Eureka Springs he was all for it. I took my friend Shelby with me and we headed to Arkansas On the 30th and came back to OKC on January 2nd. Even though I did not get to spend New Year's with my amazing husband, I had a great time with an awesome friend in one of my favorite towns. :) The people of Eureka Springs are SO VERY nice and friendly to everyone. And of course my thoughtful husband just had to do something special for us. We arrived at the hotel and were greeted with champagne and chocolates. :) I sure am lucky. Best of all - Ryan and I will be headed to Eureka Springs in April! I am SO excited!

Where does the time go?

I cannot believe that Christmas has come and gone once again. Because I was sick a lot in December, I did not really feel like I got to celebrate my favorite holiday as much as I usually do. Even though I was feeling rough on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, it was still nice to be with my family.
