A New Year

Posted on January 2nd, 2009 | by admin |

Before I get buried with work and house obligations, I’d like to make a quick post about what’s coming this 2009.

We have decided, we are going to move this year. The Husband agreed to buy, depending on the budget of course. If we don’t see anything that’s big spacious enough for our budget (with our junk, there’s really no choice), we’d just rent. But regardless, I’m happy that he’s open to the idea of buying again. And although this would mean no savings for a couple of months, I can’t help but feel excited at the prospect of finally having my own work space. And while I’m allowing myself to hope, maybe we can find half as nice as the houses in Outer Banks.

I will focus more on my work and improving my skills. For the last couple of months, I’ve found out that not only I was outdated, but that there are also thousands of things that I need to learn to survive in our company. I am not afraid to go to work (get online) anymore because I lack the skills. The competitive side of me will not let fear prevent me from learning and eventually compete (in a healthy way) with my co-workers. I am therefore challenging myself to be on the same level as them if not better.

In relation to moving, it would be best if I stop shopping online / offline. We have everything that could possibly need right now and I don’t see anything that might tempt me for the next few months. Maybe when we’re settled in our new home, I could start looking at LV bags again :D .

It’s time to be a better parent for my Sandy. She’s getting older each day and I don’t want to regret not being able to spend more time with her. Soon her little hands will not look the same anymore,  her voice, face, body will change so much that I will hear myself ask "where did the time go?" and wish that I could go back and do it all over again.

Now that Sandy isn’t as needy/clingy as a newborn, I have no reason to ignore The Husband anymore. It’s definitely his time now. I vow to honor, cherish and serve him BWAHAHAHHA. Seriously, I need to be a better wife / mistress.

Lastly, I will do my best to be a better person. I will borrow a page from The Husband’s book and will try to save the world one step at a time.
