Good morning and Happy New Year

Hi there. (And Happy New Year!)

I never… ever write here, but often provide blog ideas.

One of my 2008 resolutions is to change that. I’ll get to that in a minute though.

So what happens to me when the New Year starts to loom dangerously close? I panic. I usually beat myself up over the past years failures, then make 100 resolutions that I’ll never be able to keep, but truly want to. (Is this common for people to do this?) I feel like such a “Common” failure then… next year I resolve not to do that.

This year I’m keeping it simple. Hopefully simple enough to be able to keep.

1: I’m going to be more involved in posting here about our Family! (Please check back often! And nag me if I don’t post!)

2: Tracie and I are going to kick “The” bad habit.

Here comes the biggie…

3: I’m going to be more conscious of those around me.

This last one is kind of a catch-all. It seems to easily I slip into my own little world and just co-exist with those around me… well, those people around me are here for a reason. They are my life. I need to absorb them, love them, feel them, hear them, be there for them.

They are my Roses… I will stop and smell them.
