So..... it's been awhile. Ha, this takes me back to the diary days of my youth, when the most common phrase I would use to open a new entry in my pink, flower fairy diary with matching lock would be, "Dear Diary, I'm sorry I haven't written to you in awhile...". Call it foolhardiness or call it a redeeming quality of the benevolent sort, but here I am for my first attempt at continuance.
You can really thank my friend Maria for my return; she is an avid blogger, and far funnier a writer than she even realizes, and she also so happens to be a very encouraging person, and has encouraged me to get back on the blog track. And the fortunate thing is, I think I actually have a somewhat focused inspiration this time on which to write about! Huzzah!
We're right in the thick of the Christmas season, holidays are a mere 3 sleeps away for me, and, so being, the past few weeks have been a time of review in my work - this is a time of remembering and recognizing what has been accomplished in the past four months, and also a time to identify what could be improved and what isn't working and needs to be changed. It's been especially helpful considering that this has been my first go not only in a new job, but my first time living in an apartment on my own, and a first in terms of life balances. Oh, and the first semester I've had a computer of my own! (Ironic, isn't it, that I finally establish almost unlimited access to an internet abled computer at any time, and drop my blog like it's hot. Ha!)
Well, I did have a point back there that I was getting to. Oh, yes - I am currently setting some goals for myself! Christmas season leads to New Years and New Years leads to New Years Resolutions. What with all this job and life evaluating, I figure I'll get into the spirit of the (New Years) season and try something I've never done before - I've never actually set a New Years goal with any seriousness before in my past, so, here's to trying something new!
I'll follow up with what those goals actually are at a later date, seeing as how if I want to work on one of them, I need to get myself off to bed, stat!
