Where will I go in 2013?

2013...Yes, a new year. They come and go so fast. Now that I'm not a kid waiting for Christmas, or my birthday. Not fast enough than and yet too fast when it was summer break. Seems now the days fly by. Soon my youngest will be out of the house, married and maybe not even living close by. To recall an event in my life I parallel it to one of my pregnancies, to when one started walking or to a birthday. What will I use now? Days will blend one into the other. At one time I was juggling getting to not one but two volleyball tournaments for both girls and a basketball schedule with my son. Seems suddenly it went down to just basketball tournaments and soon those will be over too.

Will that mean I have more time for the rentals? Or creative times in the garden or maybe even still, time to do some writing and photography? Seems I am busier now then I have ever been. How did I do all I do WITH three kids and their activities and lives? Could be I still do as much it is just that it takes me longer now. This body and its parts are rebelling more and more.

Resolutions? Anything different than the last ten years? Hmmm, well it's up to 30lbs now I need to lose-or should I say, want to lose. Yes, I need to be less judgemental, exercise more, try to read every day and get together with a friend (if I still have any) once a month? or am I kidding myself?
Actually what I think I want to do this coming year is just relax. Have more faith that things are OK. Things are the way God has planned for me. Trust that with all that is going on in this country and our so called leaders and the world that some how, it will be 'ok'.

-less stress-

So that's the plan Sam. And who knows, maybe somewhere in there I will have some fun. Whatever that may mean.
