So today went fairly well . . . until it didn't.
One day into the new year and I'm already looking forward to 2013. I almost cried when I realized that this is a leap year. I don't know if I can take an extra day.
I'm probably being a little bit overly dramatic, but not by much. This afternoon I read a blog post where the author was so excited to see what God has in store for her this year. I know this woman, so I do believe that she is genuinely eager for what lies ahead. Unfortunately I can't (at this point) share her enthusiasm.
I remember January of 2010. I was excited for the new year and I was definitely excited about going to Disney World in the middle of the month with G. The day we flew back home, the world that I knew and loved fell apart and 2010 went on to be the Worst.Year.Ever. Even the challenges of 2011 pale in comparison to the horrors of 2010.
Maybe it's a good sign (not that I believe in signs) that 2012 hasn't started off all that great. At least there will be room for improvement.
On a positive note, I only swore twice today. That might be a record. And I only swore once after the day went south, so I had a small degree of self-control in a crappy situation. That is worthy of at least half a gold star.
