Against the Grain

For years and years I've made resolutions along with everybody else. My last post said I wasn't going to make any because I don't keep them.

This morning I started thinking of things I'd like to have in my life and I started to get excited. Maybe re-wording or not putting a label on it would make it easier to jot down some goals.

While visiting a friend this morning I got all energized to get my own space. I'm certainly not knocking the one I'm in now. It's great; I'm comfortable; and like the excitement of living with my family. But, it will be nice to have my stuff spread about me and not infringe on the sacred spaces of others.

Of course the legal proceedings are looming ahead of me and it's hard not to get leery of what will happen. Keeping a positive attitude (I mean, not positive that it will not go in my favor). Like Stacy says "built your life here and whatever happens there will be gravy".

I've already got a jump on organization. I've gotten underbed boxes to help with that. Now, keeping things straightened up is one of my main goals.

Stacy and I have worked out a "schedule" for dinner. So far, I'm going to make it on Mondays. A good day since Josie will be in her violin class. One day out of seven doesn't really sound fair does it?

Another thing I'd like to do is travel a little more. This could prove a little difficult with my job but I'd like to go up to Nashville more than once when I see Camelot; up to Wisconsin in June for my godson's high school graduation; to Ireland to find some hunks like in the movie P.S. I love you. Not that I want any relationships with them; I'd just like to look at them.

That's enough for now. I have a scarf to knit and some bears to work on.
