Hello to those of you still following my sorely neglected blog. Every year I think "I will do better with it!" And then I don't. Well, that is just the story of my life. I have good intentions but I always manage to take on much more than I should, and then I feel like a failure when I can't do it all.
Let's talk about 2021.
It was crazy.
It was exciting.
It was downright scary.
But it was still fulfilling.
I finished up my Associate's Degree with honors and as a member of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. When I finished that, I felt great! I decided I was ok with 'just' an Associate's Degree and that I wasn't going to concern myself with going any further. At 40 years old, I already had a lot on my plate with a full time job and 3 kids, so why put that much pressure on myself again? Well...in true "me" fashion, I've decided to go ahead and pursue my Bachelor's Degree through an accredited online school. Life is gonna get crazy again, but it will be great for me down the road! In January 2021, I accepted a new job, and it has been amazing. The Bachelor's Degree will open up SO MANY opportunities for me later on.
Covid still reigned supreme throughout 2021 as well. Protocols and requirements changed, symptoms expanded, and the people of the world were still at each other's throats because "if you don't do it the way I do, you don't care about yourself or your friends/family/neighbors as much as I do!!!" I'm worried for the world we're creating for ourselves and our kids. Here's hoping I'm completely wrong about the direction the world is going...
Anyways. It's January 1, 2022. I hope and pray this year brings blessings, happiness, love, light, understanding, acceptance, achievement, health, and togetherness.
The year is in our hands. Let's take hold and make it a good one.
God bless,
Stacy
