Farewell 2011

So much for writing more in December posts! Guess that ship has sailed!

January kind of snuck up on me. After spending Christmas with the folks and work tapering off and ending I haven't had much structure-so a week of sleeping in and milling about and then a zippity-do-da New Year's celebration and here I am in 2012!


Resolutions, you ask? Bah! Not here. I make little resolutions daily all year long trying to keep myself on track and that only sometimes works out, so I don't bother setting myself up for mass failure with one big resolution :oP

2012 is important though. This weekend I get to start my doula training, the fiance and I have a wedding to plan and a marriage to commence, we get to honeymoon and I'll have my first holiday season as a married lady! Big changes in 2012 (and no, that isn't a jab at Obama).


2011 was a good year-and a rocky year. I had the worst relapse of my depression ever and yet I'm still engaged! Anyone with depression wonders how their loved ones manage to stick around through it all-and my fiance has some serious sticking power after this last relapse-woowhee does he stick!

Not only did I find the man I want to spend the rest of my life with, I found a vocation that can be one of my lifelong passions. Becoming a doula in 2012 is just the first step in my path toward becoming a midwife and helping more mothers and babies!

So, farewell 2011. It was good and I may miss you a little here and there, but I am sure happy to be here in 2012. More good times ahead :o)
