Third time's the charm!!

Ok, so I really am determined to blog seriously in 2009. Happy New Year by the way. Happy New Year to me! So much happened in 2008, that I wish I'd been disciplined enough to keep account of everything that I did. I travelled, made new friends, got my heart bruised a couple of times and lost and then gained back some weight. I discovered some great blogs, great musicians, became enamored with the election process, and witnessed the election of the first African American president. I became an aunt for the second time over, and became a god mother for the third time over. I watched the economy take a nosedive, watched as people lost their jobs, homes, and their health. I survived the first round of layoffs at work, with the specter of another round coming in the New Year. I completed my graduate degree, with the thought of completing a couple of professional exams in the New Year. I started writing my first children's book, still working on it. Yep, so many experiences in 2008, the good, the bad and the ugly, and by God's grace I made it through to 2009 thankful I'm still standing. So here's praying that I am disciplined enough share my thoughts and experiences in this New Year. If 2009 is anything like 2008, then there'll be tons to share and I'm excited!!

Wow how time flies!!!

Wow!! I think I blinked and February became May. Time sure has flown by. I can't even believe almost half the year is over. Trust me this girl has been juggling a full time job, a part time graduate degree, having a social life and trying to loose weight all in one swoop. God has been good to me, I can't complain, and men have I been trying to live (I think I have enough fodder to share in my next couple of blogs.

This is my 2nd foray into blogging. So let the fun times begin!
