New Attitudes

I have to confess that I have been grumpy..... yes, grumpy.... but that is over.  

I did not make any New Year's Resolutions.  In fact, my resolutions happen all year long..... just because a ball drops in New York or the calendar is thrown out (or in my case recycled into a card or something) and a new one opened - does not mark the time that I am fully aware that I need to improve.... it is an ongoing process.  Messy, struggling, sometimes even stubborn..... but clearly an ongoing process. 

Oh my goodness... when I start to think of all the things I said in my life that I wish I could take back... or the looks (not pleasant) I have given to others and wish it had been a smile instead..... or the person I failed to give a dollar to.... 

or.... 

or...  

So many lost chances.  


But to wallow in it would be unproductive and possibly selfish.... no definitely selfish. 


So time to move forward.  Wash the slate clean and work for the best.  


I am not perfect.  I am not the best at anything and I am not the most beautiful.... but I am loved.  Couldn't ask for anything more! 

So here is to new attitudes!
