Resolution, smesolution, whesolution . . .

I'm not much for New Year's resolutions. Almost anti to a point, I guess. I have doubts they work, but really I wouldn't know, I don't think I've ever made a resolution. If I have, it was so long ago and obviously it made so little impact on my life, I didn't feel like I needed to make another.

I have set goals/tasks and accomplished them or ignored them and moved on, but just not over a years period. So much can happen from January to December. I don't know, it's quite a stretch. But all the best to those of you that do make resolutions and accomplish them. And even if you don't at least you have good intentions and there's something to be said for that.

This year, 2009, especially, I have no energy to try to make some big change. Don't want to lost weight, though I should. Don't want to organized all the closets in the house, though they really need to be put in some sort of order, don't want to try and cut back on spending in certain areas of our budget, though there are definitely areas that could use some work . . . and the list could go on and on.

But I've got a resolution set for me this year. It's carrying over from 2008, one that I'm already sooooo over, but I must work toward. The outcome is most crucial. And I will know that if I haven't accomplished my goal by the end of the year, it's not going to be good. So I must continue and persevere and keep working toward the finish . . . to find a job. And what a task in this day and age.

My favorite blog in the whole wide world, that I've just been waiting to give the right shout out to: Whatever. I love it! Meg is such an amazing lady. Her blog is awesome! She's so creative. She's honest, writes what she feels and loves Jesus! I even love the name of her blog "Whatever". No super spiffy name, no cute little subtitle. It's perfect to me! When I read her blog today it was like she read my mind. It's exactly how I feel: blah.

Thank you, Meg, for your creative, thought-provoking blog. Thank you for your honestly and sharing yourself and time with all us out here in blog land.

Hope if you read this blog and Meg's, and you're feeling the same way, you'll be encouraged. Though we're not gun-ho and ready to go conquer the world this year, it helped me to know that others feel the same way as me and we'll all get through! One day of 2009 at a time!
