Happy New Year



According to the Gregorian Calendar, it is the start of the New Year. I celebrated the Celtic New year a few months back, but I still try to do something for new years. Which is why I deleted my old blog and decided to start anew. I am terrible at keeping up with this kind of stuff, but I'm going to give it a real try this time around, partially because I think it will be good for me to continue to do some writing.

Well out with the old and in with the new!


This year has been insane and I often felt as though I couldn't get grounded. I moved to completely new state with my boyfriend, Alex, and my roommate Mara. I originally transferred through the grocery store I had worked at for over two years. In July I quit and felt it was the best thing I had ever done. I have enjoyed a nice break from the working world because Alex felt I should try it out. Now several months later, I think I'm ready to get back to working, because staying at home is just not stimulating enough for me. So hopefully the new year will bring a new job and more adventures along the way.

Everyone is abuzz with the ending of the year and the idea of a new years resolution. I really don't have one as of yet. I have been thinking about it, and I don't want to choose one of the usual ones that everyone picks. I want my New Years Resolution to be meaningful and life changing. I have all day to come up with it though.

To be honest I am so glad that the holidays are finally OVER!!! I'm not a total Scrooge, but the people don't seem to get nicer at this time of year, they get greedy, and annoying. I've never been a big fan of most Christmas Music, especially the poorly done stuff that plays in every business from Thanksgiving till New Years.

Don't get me wrong though, I did have a wonderful Yule. The Lunar Eclipse was absolutely beautiful. Spending time with the two most important people in my life was well worth having to drudge through the 12 days of Christmas every time I walked into a gas station. And last night for New Years we went bowling and had a pretty good time, in spite of the noisiness of the crowd. Maybe I'm just not one for large groups of people anymore. It seems like whenever we go somewhere the louder and more crowded it is, the easier I am annoyed. Partially I think its all the random energy whipping about is distracting and confusing. But that's basically the holidays for me in a nutshell.



Did I freeze my ass off to watch the Yule Lunar Eclipse? Hell YES!!!
