I have had another busy week - but if you asked me what I have been busy doing I don't think I could tell you. Boy just takes up so much of my time, in a good way for the most part. He is just more and more fun everyday and is already like my best friend (but I think he thinks Rae is his best friend - they are such "Buddies" those too).
Last night was one of my top three new years nights (equal to a beach party on Maggie Island and a new yrs in Time Square NY). It was just a bunch of mates, a bbq and a few drinks (not for me but the others!)
These friends are more like family than friends though! And I feel so blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. Life is not about the money you make, the job you have, or even the places you go - but about the people you meet along the way, especially the ones you keep for the length of it. Mushy I know but I credit my doing ok this last year to the people that held my hand along the way.
I cant say 2009 was a bad year - Rae and I have lived in our little beach shack since Oct, Boy was born April, and I left a bad situation for a better life in February. BUT it was a fairly dramatic and life altering year. And not what I had planned for my early twenties. Though I think we made it through ok.
However, Twenty TEN (the year I turn twenty five) is going to KICK ASS! Boy will start walking, turn 1 and learn and grow every day. So I figure I should learn and grow each day too. This year I want to better myself and enjoy each moment life offers us. I've realised this last 18 months life isn't what you think it is going to be. You don't know everything when your 19 and you probably won't conquer your dreams by 25. But someone said to me this week - "Life IS the journey to your dreams" So I am going to keeping dream and I'm going to get back to reaching for them as well.
"Don't wait for your ship to come in; Swim out to it"
I am happier than I have been years and I like myself - I love my little family unit and I LOVE my baby boy! So Here's to the best year yet! May you all get wet swimming!
