Happy New Decade!!!

The day after New Year's I was driving home from a day of work at the hospital and was contemplating all the things I wanted to accomplish this coming year. I just had had a productive day at work and was feeling pretty good as I drove home. I thought about taking a photography class, a creative writing class, getting my continuing education done, planning a fantastic, whimsical first birthday party for Shayne, finally hanging some pictures in our house, getting to those pilates classes at the gym more, getting all of our pictures put together in books, reading more classics and fewer gruesome murder mysteries, doing more with friends, starting my 2 new callings, organizing all of my closets, etc., etc., etc.

As I pulled into the garage and walked into the house, I was greeted with the deeply disturbing sight of clutter on all surfaces in the kitchen and living room left over from our unfinished unpacking from our trip and from two days of working instead of being home to do my routine clutter inspections. So I started in on the dishes in the sink to alleviate the mental anguish and no more than a couple of seconds later, a little bitty, crying, clinging girl had firmly attached herself to my leg making it impossible to move more than a few steps. 

So, I threw in the towel, picked her up, gave that girl some love and attention, and decided I had better make the above mentioned goals my 'goals of the decade' if I actually want to feasibly accomplish them. So here's to 2010-2020!!!!
