Happy New Year!! 2006 is officially a memory. It was an overall good year, with moments of frustration, anger and disappointments. Some of these moments came from the same person(s), others were spread across different people.
I worked really hard on being a better person, a better mother, a better friend and an overall better ME!! I think that I've done the best that I could do. I've been trying to live up to what I've said, and to be honest with myself.
That being said(c'mon...you knew it was coming), I would really appreciate it if people could be honest with me. I am so sick and tired of people lying to me(or hiding information) and assuming that I'm stupid. I deserve the truth from people and not to be consistently misled by people, or so they think. It's ridiculous to think that I don't see what is plainly in front of me. I wish some people could see how ridiculous it makes them look.
I've learned this past year, that you cannot be friends with everyone. You can be civil, but maybe not friends. I've learned that you cannot tell everyone everything - even some of your friends. Some people just want to use the information that you tell them against you in the future. I've learned that my children are the most honest people that I know. I've learned that I have a very small group fo friends that I love and in turn, they love me too! I've learned that it's really okay to let go of some people in your life. I've really learned that some people are only supposed to be in your life for certain reasons. I've learned that - and I really have learned this - THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING ALONE!
I don't have the answers for everything, and I don't pretend to. There are still plenty of times that I turn into a "girl" when I try real hard not to. I am human and I make mistakes, the thing with me is that I own up to my mistakes. I've made plenty of mistakes this past year, there are people that I've hurt - to those people, I'm sorry.
I would also like to say thank you to a few people that I have influenced my life this year and have made my life richer by being in it.
Thank you to:
God - without you, I am nothing. My faith had grown so much this year.
Andrew & Chris - without you, I am nothing. You two are the silliest, most handsome and the most joyful people in my life. I am so grateful that I have you.
Dad, Mom, Wanda - Thank you to the 3 of you for all of your support this year.
Khayree - there aren't enough words for you to understand how much you mean to me. I love
you dearly!
Susan - Mane What?!?!? Ride or Die, Freesol, Together we're brilliant, how many pt's do you have left, dogbird, boys are stupid, no I'm not doing anything, we are too much alike!
Harry - ah, Harry. You are something else. We've been through so much this year...I love you.
Theresa - I love you sissy...thanks for everything....don't drink from the can!
Jennifer - you are one of the smartest people that I know....we are better off...really we are.
Bryon - You are the smartest person that I know. You are a brilliant person and a wonderful soul...thank you for reminding me how strong I am.
Weight Watchers - 21 lbs pounds gone...4 more to goal. Enough said!
Drew - I'm not really sure what to say...we've had so many ups and downs this year. Thank goodness we've survived each other.
If I've left anyone off this list, it's simply an oversight......please charge it to my head and not my heart.
Here is to a wonderful 2007!!!!
Vintage Me >.<
