2014 Word of the Year

December 30, 2013 by

Apparently there is this new trend happening on the internet where a person claims a word to be their mantra, their focus, their resolution for 2014. Word of the Year.

I tend not to follow trends. I’m not calculating or a strategist in terms of posting things on the blog. I don’t do things just because others do. BUT as I saw these “Word Of The Year” posts crossing my feeds MY word came to me.

I’m not a risk taker in any aspect of my life. I do things that make me happy and that I know will benefit me and my family.  I’m a creature of habit. I don’t often venture off my cushy path. With all of that taken into account I somehow feel comfortable with the word that that I’ve chosen for my Word of the Year…TRY

2014 Word of the Year

I will try harder at being a

an understanding parent

a supportive wife

an inspiring blogger

a constant friend

I’m going to consider new endeavors with open eyes and an open heart.

Did you choose a Word of the Year?




Things I Wont Miss from 2012

January 2, 2013 by

Fads come and go and some fads need to go FAST or never happened in the first place.  Here are some things I won’t miss in 2013

Hey Girl-Don’t get me wrong Ryan Gosling is HOT but the sayings got to be too much. Every hobby, religion and political stance had their own collection and it lost it’s appeal.

Said No One Ever– Just because you don’t like doing something doesn’t mean NO ONE EVER liked doing it.
said no one ever

SomeECards Adding a kinda funny saying to a the same picture over and over again just needs to stop.
someecards.com - I just want someone who treats me the way I delusionally think I deserve to be treated.

Twilight Saga– it’s done, over, finished! The term “saga” should’ve been the clue, soap operas are sagas.
twilight saga is over,
Baby Shaming-You’ll be tracking down those photos for years to come as your children are in expensive therapy

baby shaming of 2012

YOLO– You Only Live Once isn’t a new saying but the acronym turned phrase is. We have become too lazy to say 4 little words. Those words should be inspiring and motivating, instead they represent the lack morals and initiative in today’s youth.
yolo needs to go away

I Disclose




Stressful Year End – Ready To Ring In The New Year!!!

December 28, 2010 by

The month of December for me has been a pretty stressful month to say the least.  You would think Christmas and shopping are the reasons for my stress but to be honest those two things were the least of my worries.  I have been going through some personal issues along with Sabreena’s surgery and also add on top of all of this a new job and I am at my stress limit.

I have been flip flopping on a new job offer since the beginning of December.  The offer is like anything else in life as it has its positives and its negatives.  Unfortunately I have been extremely unhappy at my current job that even with the negatives of the new position I still feel I am better off then staying where I currently am.  I hope I am making the right decision but I guess there is no turning back now.

I am so looking forward to the New Year and hoping things start to look up and things start to pan out like they are suppose to as I can’t deal with to many more months like this December.

Come on 2011 I am ready for ya!!!!

Are you ready to ring in 2011???
