As 2008 comes to a close....

...I wanted to get one more post in! Where has the time gone?! It's been 3 weeks since my last post and I really have no excuse why I haven't written. I feel like Christmas crept up on me this year, although I have no idea why since the Christmas stuff was in stores right after Halloween this year! I started my shopping early, got my cards done and mailed out in an orderly fashion, and felt good about it all. Then all of a sudden, I felt like it was here and then it was over.

While winter tends to be the time of year that I get the blues (hence the term "Winter Blues") I have been trying my hardest to keep my mind busy. Up here in NH, we don't get out much in the winter...seeing that one day we will have a foot of snow and then the next day it's a heat wave at a high of 50! It's dark when I go into work and dusk when I get out, so being outside is not something that is done a lot. I relish Monday, Wednesday, and Friday because I get to leave for 10 minutes to go to the bank for work. I take the "longer" way just to be outside to get fresh air. I am now the lucky owner of a Sony Digital Reader. It's the best thing I could have purchased for myself and I am loving it. I download books to it, pack it in my work bag, and spend the quiet hours at worked filled with reading and passing the time. Without my trusty little electronic, I am afraid time would move very slow, so I am happy to have it. And this weekend, I did start the Disney honeymoon scrapbook. I think part of me put it off for so long because I didn't want to really deal with the fact that it was over. But I am having a great time reliving it by looking through all of the pictures...the memories still fresh in my mind as if it was yesterday. Now if only we could get our stinkin' wedding pictures back...then I think my life would be amazing!

With only a day and a half until 2009, I am working on putting together a couple of New Years' Resolutions for myself. I am not one to usually believe in stuff like that and I don't want the resolutions to be stuff like "losing 10 pounds". I really want to work on making myself a better person, so I am working on a few good resolutions that may not be easy, but will be worth accomplishing!

In closing, if I don't get back on to post anything tomorrow, I will be back in 2009 :)
