Wishes

Abby is finally asleep and it's Mommy time! Yay! I guess it's been a few weeks since I've put anything on here, but with the crazy holiday season I am just now winding down. I also feel like I need to put pictures on here every time I post for some reason, so that keeps me from writing anything. So here is a picture-free post from me! Anyway, life is ok here. I hate this time of year. I have serious post-holiday traumatic stress syndrome! January and February are always bleak and cold, but I know when March comes around I will start to feel like myself again. I just need to keep busy and let people into my life so I won't start feeling sorry for myself. Thanks Dad for keeping an eye on me!

Lately I have been wishing that I had more friends here in Magna. It's totally my fault that I don't. I just don't make friends easily and I have a hard time putting myself out there, ya know? But I'm trying. I just wish for the good ol' days when my best friends all lived within a mile of me and I always had someone to talk to and hang out with. I wish I could be like my sister who makes dozens of friends everywhere she goes. But wishes don't come true unless you do something about it, right? So my goal this year is to make an effort to get to know people.

My other goal is to work on my family history more. For some unknown reason, I have been crowned the family history queen in my family. I did not seek this title, but here I sit with boxes of family history stuff on my shelves that are gathering dust and I have no idea where to start. I need to do something soon though because my sweet little Grandma, the former queen, is not going to be around forever. And she happens to be the one with all the answers to the questions I am sure to ask. So maybe I should get my butt off the computer, right? Ha! The things I would get done if I didn't have a computer. Ugh...I don't even want to think about that one.
