Day 171: A fresh look on a fresh year

Okay, so now that my stomach's stopped swirling and my eyes are no longer crossed, I'm officially starting 2011 today, January 2nd, with a fresh attitude. My new year's resolution: to not let the negative in my life BECOME my life. In fact, don't even let it be a negative at all. Whose life is perfect? There is always going to be good and not so good, but the way to live a happy life is to not let the bad dominate. So that's what I'm going to do! I've got great family, great friends, this great guy who seems to keep coming back despite my quirky tendencies, I have a job, a roof over my head, and plenty more positives that so many people aren't fortunate to have in their life. So, no more of this pity party, when's it going to turn around business... I'm done. I'm putting on a smile, thanking my lucky stars for all the wonderful around me and taking the attitude that good things will come my way. I know it.
