Another Year Gone... Is it gonna get better?

Hello Again!


I stopped blogging and I can't remember why.  It may have been because of work, but I am getting the feeling that it was because I lost interest in telling you all my thoughts.


Well, let me catch you all up....This past year was another roller coaster ride.  I am very happy that I reconnected with one of my great friends and fell right back into the routine we were always in.  Things are a little different but seems like we didn't miss any time.  


Some of the same people popped back into my life but quickly popped right back out, and for the best.  I showed how strong I was by telling those people how unimportant they were in my life at the moment and wished them well in their life.  I am usually the one that tells them all is well and we can pick up where we left off.  Not this time!!  I made myself proud and have continued to be strong in all my relationships and tell my true feelings.  I still don't like to upset people but I am not letting them take advantage of me like they use to.  I still have my moments, but they are few and far between.


I have been promoted at work and had a lot of transition in my job, like location, employees, responsibilities... things like that.  I do enjoy what I do but if things don't improve soon, I am going to need to find something else to do... but not right now.


I started dating again back in late January/early February, that was when the roller coaster started.  When you have been out of the dating scene for a minute, you forget how things are supposed to go but I am sure that things aren't supposed to be on fast forward!  So many guys are after one thing and I was so over whelmed that I could have fallen into a big mess but I didn't.  So I searched for guys who wanted to take things slow... and I finally found one.  We are doing OK but there are some circumstances that need to be taken care of in both of our lives so that we can focus on our relationship.


I have not had the best year but who has?  (Besides all of the rich people!!!)  A lot of things have happened in this year in the world that were positive but we are still in pretty bad shape as a country.  When will it get better?  Am I gonna have to move like I did back in 1999 and start all over?  I don't want to move because I love it here in Atlanta.  I am sure I will get my sign to let me know what I need to do.  Until then, I am going to live my life and try not to let things get me down.  I am going to try to  get back onto my weight loss schedule and make some progress this time.  I know, I know... everyone says this at this time of year so I am not going to make any promises but I am going to try REAL hard because I need to do this for me.


So, here it is... the last day of 2011 and I am ending this year not feeling well so I will be going into 2012 sick.  Is that how my year is going to start out and does this mean that my year is going to be better because it starts out so yucky?  I am thinking since it starts out bad, it has to end good right?  So, here is to 2012!  May it bring good things to all and may it not end the day before my birthday... Thanks Mayans!
