2010

Well here we go, another year of anything goes. Ever since we had kids we never know what the hell is going to happen around here. Life used to be so predictable, but not anymore! Who knows whats going to happen with Bill and his job either...there is the possibility of him leaving the Missouri by the Sept but then again he could be going by this time next year. He really thinks it's time for a Bachelors degree and he needs to get on shore duty to concentrate on his studies. With only 5 1/2 years left until retirement I agree with him that now is the time. He'll have a better chance at a higher paying better quality job with that piece of paper. Then again I think what's the fucking difference? I've got a Masters degree and that got me nowhere. Oohhhh look at me Mrs negative. Eh, either way, it is going to be Bill who determines where we move after retirement. He'll have the best luck getting a job first. Then once we get where we're going, I can start getting some more experience under my belt and hopefully be teaching by the time I'm 40! But alas, here we are in the present and starting a new year. I love looking forward to the future. Starting a new decade has me in dreamland! The past 10 years has made such a huge impact on my life...I met Bill in 2000 and here we are a whole decade later with nearly 3 kids, a comfy little house, and a wonderful little life together. I haven't made any resolutions except for two, to keep working on being a good mom to THREE kids. Its going to take a lot of patience and virtue to do this but I'm up for it. For now I can keep trying to work on my patience with this whole bed rest thing. Get through these next 30 days and get to 32 weeks. That's the short term resolution. 2009 was a great year for me, lots of ups and downs and plenty of tests of my faith and self confidence but it all worked out for the best. I'm proud of my accomplishments and the blessings that have come my way.
