The Year to Shine

It's hard to believe another year has come and gone. Rather than dwell on everything that I didn't accomplish, I'm choosing to celebrate everything I did do. 2008 was perhaps the best year of my life. It was certainly the most eventful. 2008 was the year I became extremely active in my work, thus getting promoted, which is one of my most proud accomplishments. New friendships were formed. I learned to like beer. And most importantly, 2008 was the year Kevin and I took the plunge and moved in together, which was definitely a great decision. As we settle more into our new little home, we continue to have more and more fun.

Oh! and another great thing about 2008 .. it was the year that I was lucky enough to launch this great magazine.

(It's available starting today! Go buy it! You won't regret it!)

As for resolutions, I finally came up with a few:

• Work out 3 times a week.
• Scrapbook a page a week, at the very least.
• Step up my game even more at work.
• Create new friendships and strengthen old ones.
• Bake something new every month.
• Learn to sew.

Like I said, I don't want to make too many that I become wrapped up in them. I tried to be smart and create goals that will further enrich my life. My most important resolution is just to enjoy life and try not to let it pass me by.
