Happy New Year

Out with the "old" and in with the "new"? On this day we usher in a new year. I'd like to remember 2010.

I spent most of the year on the roles of the unemployed but got a good job in August.

With the help of my physician, I discovered that my crushing depression was organic and treatable and began a regime of vitamin D. Life has been good ever since.

Though I put on a lot of weight (with the depression and all), I have hope that I can take it back off this year. I resolve to make better food choices, eliminating sugar, smaller portions, more water, meal planning and less compulsion. God help me.

I lost my Grandma the day after Christmas but I got the blessing of being there at the end. I resolve to hold my family closer this year.

I resolve to be an encourager, not a nay sayer.

I resolve to get outta this bed and begin to live in 2011. Starting now....

We lived in a farmhouse and I watched Romper Room. A daddy longlegs skittered across my dirty kid legs as I teeter-tottered on a broken kitchen chair back. I played grocery store and laid out a bedroll for group nap time in preschool. We lived in an apartment attached to a bakery. My maternal grandparents visited and a photo was snapped. Grandma held Dawn and Grandpa held me. I held Grandpa's chin. Walking through the back of the flour-caked kitchen, I saw scrumptious pastries and colorful toys stuck in the cupcakes with my hungry kids eyes. We lived in a two-story apartment building next door to a large farmer's field.  That field was my
