Whoops

I made such a point of starting this blog and swearing that I would continue it and what did I go and do? Not post a thing for about 4 months. I have a million excuses I could use. I was injured. I've been busy etc etc but really none of those excuses cut it do they? So here I am right now promising that I will continue my personal blog and update much more frequently. Starting this week.

As we're all aware it is now 2010 and what does that really mean for each of us?
Personally I am using this year to sort myself out and delete all the toxins in my life. Goodbye toxic people. Goodbye toxic thoughts and goodbye toxic habits. (Hopefully.)
Kiddo is going in to grade 3 this year which is scary for me. I still have memories from when I was in grade 3.

Already this year I've had to accept the fact that my boy is growing up and while it does fill me with a little sadness (He is my baby after all.) I am also filled with pride. He caught a plane by himself just recently to go and stay with his grandparents in Melbourne. I have never flown by myself so at the meager age of 7 he is already accomplishing things I haven't.

We spoke every night over the phone and each night he made me laugh. I don't know what I did to deserve such a wonderful child. He has the perfect mix of manners and humor along with masses of charm. I was close to tears talking with my Dad and hearing the praise he gave. I don't like to brag about things like that but dammit. I did that. I helped create this little man. (I think I'm going to have to get used to calling him a little man. He is by no means a child.)
Now here I am getting teary just thinking about when I got teary. Perhaps I should move on.

I am going to have to leave things here for the time being. I desperately need to get to the shops and pick up a few things. I wish I didn't have to considering the heat but I need a few top-up items for making the other half's lunch tomorrow.
Can't avoid life now can we?
