Welcome 2012!

I will wake up tomorrow ready to take on a new year.  I will not have a HO, I will not be embarrassed bc of anything i said or did the night before, I will know that I put my kids as my first priority.

Now for this year - at least I don't have the resolution to stop/do better with my drinking!  I have already done that.  Now that I have that out of the way, my resolution is to be present in the moment and live each day with intention.  To find out what I really like to do now that I will have more free time.  I need to find other ways to relax and spend my time.  I will finally have the time and energy to take better care of myself - get to the gym, eat better, get enough sleep.  My goal is really to spend more time looking inward rather than outward for my happiness and peace.  My happiness is not up to nor dependent on others.  I need to find my own happiness.  Part of that is to not be so sensitive.  Everything is not always about me.

I also need to be vigilant in my sobriety. I will blog every day, post to my online community lists and read all of the literature I receive regarding sobriety.  This is the year I will become the person I have always known I could be.  A calm, collected, mature, compassionate, competent woman.
