Happy New Year 2016!

Well it is 12:19 and I am still awake.  Ok actually I fell asleep on the couch around 10:00 and my husband woke me up about 11:30 to ring in the new year.  I blame the baby growing in my belly and my crazy toddler for zapping all my energy.  Kids take a lot of work.

I used to put a lot of effort into figuring out my NYE plans.  In my younger days, I spent plenty of time dressed up, out and about, fighting crowds and taking shots.  Those days were great but long behind me now.  Surprisingly, I find myself (like many) more content with this stage of my life than any other. 

My hope is that all of you are just as content and looking forward to this New Year.  I hope you are present for your friends and family and continue to develop your relationships and happiness.  Happiness is at the center of it all and its in the moment here and now - not a far off distant goal to be reached after you've obtained a better job, lost weight or accomplished some other task.  Be happy first and success will flow. 

My only resolution this year is to read more.  I have tons of books sitting around that I've yet to get to.  Here's to further educating myself in 2016.  Hope you all have a good one!
