Welcome 2012!

Jeremy and I spent New Year's Eve with dear friends drinking and laughing and playing games together.  And our kids spent the evening together, in a different location, doing much of the same things. 

My friend Jenn posted this quote on her facebook page and I liked it so much, I borrowed it.  Lovely words for a fresh new year.

I Choose…
to live by choice, not by chance;
to make changes, not excuses;
to be motivated, not manipulated;
to be useful, not used;
to excel, not compete.
I choose self-esteem, not self pity.
I choose to listen to my inner voice, not the random opinion of others.

Happy New Year to all!
