Hum-drum

Here's to the new year. Oh wait, I'm not excited for the new year. Not one iota. I mean seriously do we need another excuse to stuff our faces and drink a crazy amount of empty calories? Why on earth do we have a new year in the middle of a season any way? Here's the things I have to look forward to this year...

Telling my nephew that the last piece to finish his birthday present might arrive sometime in February when his birthday is the 31st of December and I started working on it in November. Stupid fabric manufacturer!

Scrounging for subbing jobs.

Renewing my drivers licence for which I have to once again prove that I'm a legal citizen. I mean really? I already have a licence. And I have to take a new picture.

Having more tests done just so some lab monkey can change their mind on what the results are yet again.

Dealing with the fact that I am yet again facing another year where I don't have a full time job and I still live at home. (Even though I love my Gramma, I'd really like a place to call my own.)

Ok so now that I've got all the negative off my shoulders I can think about the positives.

I have a job in my field of chosen profession, even if it's not the ideal one my degree is being used as it was designed.

I have a roof over my head and am not expected to pay rent or any bills (Though I feel I should do more than I do).

I have found what seems to be a wonderful church and am working on strengthening my spirit.

I have found this crazy desire to move. Like right now, I'd love to go for a run. (If you really knew me you'd understand how crazy that sounds).

I have a job that pays decently and will likely get out from under stupid debt soon.

I feel like even though I don't feel like I have all that much going for me right now that I can choose how I see my life this next year. I am choosing to try to look at the positives and just deal with the negatives. Here's to a great year!
