Updates, Updates

Once again, I have gone almost a month without posting!!! I don't know what happens, but it's like I forget to use the internet at all sometimes!! I guess I have been busy after work and spend my free time doing other things besides sitting in front of the computer. Oh well, it's not like there is too much to talk about right now!!

I really can't believe that it's 2009 and the first month is already almost over. Our New Year's Eve was slightly depressing this year. For the last 10 years, I have been in the same location doing the same thing for NYE - I go see Widespread Panic in Atlanta for a 2-3 night concert. I have been doing this since 1999 and can't even remember what I did for NYE before that!! This year, they decided to try out Denver for NYE, which resulted in some unhappy Southern fans!! We just didn't have the funds to take a trip to Denver, so instead I found myself asleep on the couch at 1:00am and completely missed ringing in the new year. Sad huh?!! My husband and I both slept right through midnight!! Oh the joys of getting old....

I have been contemplating a pretty big decision for a few weeks now. This decision will change my life for the next two years and will completely change the course I'm on and the direction my future is heading. There is still so much to think about and so much to research to do before I make this decision, and so many factors go into this decision so it's making it very hard for me to make up my mind. My only fear now is that I have to make this decision pretty soon because I have many things to take care of before the deadline of April 15. So, I would really appreciate your thoughts and prayers right now. It's a scary decision for me to make but so far my close friends and family are being very supportive of the idea. It's just a pretty big step for me and will result in a lot of change...and let's face it...nobody enjoys change. So please pray for me in helping me to make the right decision!!! If I decide to move forward, I think the end result will make me very, very happy!

I'm going this weekend to visit my best friend in Huntsville, and I'm also stopping off to see my mom and brother, who are now new residents of Hunstville!! I'm very excited to have some much-needed girl time with my BFF that I haven't seen since November!! I haven't seen my mom and brother since Christmas so I'm definitely looking forward to a visit with them as well.

My friend Nikki is still cancer free!! And she won a contest that is going to help her with her upcoming wedding in June!! Things have really fallen into place for her right now and I couldn't be happier for her!! Please keep the prayers coming though, because as you are all aware, cancer knows no time limits and can rear it's ugly head again at any time.

I hope everyone has a safe and happy weekend!!! I will try to post again sooner than later :)
