Its been a Loooong Time

I have been so busy that I haven't found time to blog. Writing is one of my favorite things to do so I really don't want to fall off. But being a mommy has me so busy. Its hard to find time to just sit still and write, but all that is going to change. My goal is to start putting aside some time for me. Nina is just 15mys old and I know that the older she gets, the busier I'm going to get. So, I'm about to start takinig some time to do some of the things I love and need to do. I have people who are willing to watch Nina for me so I'm going to start opening my mouth and asking for an hour or 2 to do some things that I need to do.

The new year is here, 2010. I'm not a person who makes resolutions but I do like to look at the new year as a mark to start something new and/or make some necessary changes. 2009 was a rollercoaster year for me. I was a new mom and Nina came home. I was able to be off with her until May and returned to work. My job had completely changed because while I was off, there was a reorg. But it all worked out and I still love my job and love what I'm doing(even though its so much more work). Nina had her first birthday party which was a blast and she also had her first 'official' Christmas(the year before she was in the hospital). The New Year was nice & quiet. Me, Nina & Will chilled at the house. My girl Nellie came up and we had some light food & some wine. I was sleep by 12:15.

Thus far, this year has brought on some serious challenges for me. I've been working on a few things within me to become a better person and at the same time, not allow people to take advantage of me. Its hard sticking to your word sometimes, but with life, everything can't be always what I want but what I need.

Nina is growing up...I kinda want her to stay a baby but at the same time, I'm looking forward to her becoming a little lady. She is the best baby...nothing matters to me as much now that I have her. Issues, drama, things that get on my nerves don't matter as much anymore...I have something bigger & better to worry about. My goal is to start blogging again...I need too, its very therapeutic.
