As the year closes it is time to reflect on 2009.
2009 was a wonderful year, I am sad to see it go. The year started with the birth of my miracle. My faith was restored and my family was completed. Having a little one so late in life has taught me to slow down and to focus on what is important in life:
God
Family
Friends
Fitness
Family

2009 has been eye opening and refreshing. I’ve discovered Facebook, Twitter, and I’ve continued to develop friendships with people who have pretty much the same interest as I do. I haven’t run many races this year, but look forward to 2010 so that I can jump back into it once again.
I’ve taken my first step towards changing my career by returning to school and it has been wonderful!! I look forward to completing this course and actually getting to work as an MT. 2009 has not been bad at all… I realized more and more how much God has His hand on me and mine. I’ve realized that validation comes from above, not from man and that has made all the difference. It has taken 40 years and many tears to realized that I don’t have to prove my value to anyone, and stress is me trying to change others.
2010 is the year I step out on faith! And yes, the “Goops” are going to be there, always trying to bring me down. Always trying to prove they are better, stronger, faster, and smarter. They might be. They might not be.
2010, I don’t care!!!
2010 is my goopbuster year!!!!
The Goops they lick their fingers,
and the Goops they lick their knives;
They spill their broth on the tablecloth,
Oh, they lead disgusting lives!
