I started writing a very strange in depth post about what happened to me in 2011. But then I decided I should talk about w 2012. Let’s look forward and not backward. (If you want to look backward feel free to read all the way back to November of 2010.)

As I look forward to the new year, I am in a completely different place than I was entering this one.

2012 is the first year that I’ll start with a new:

– name

– husband

– city that I call home

– outlook on life

– health condition

– job title (did I mention I got a promotion?)

There are many other things that I could add to the list, but we’ll leave it at that.

2011 was a year of change, excitement and obstacles for me. I don’t expect 2012 to be easy, nice or carefree but it is going to be new.

I’m not always the best at making New Years resolutions, so keeping them is tough anyway. But I’ll take a stab at it, in 2012 I would like to make an effort to be healthier and foster the positive relationships in my life.

What would you like to do in 2012?
