Really… are we SERIOUSLY only hours away from the countdown?! WTF! Where did this year go? I can’t believe I became a mother of two this year. What??? I’m in disbelief at how quickly this year time has slipped by! It’s been a great year but it has also been filled with a whirlwind of events. Since having Clark I feel like it’s been go-go-go! I’m really hoping for more relaxed time in 2010… more concentration on family!
I did a reflection post in September and haven’t added much else to the list. Except, that I do intend to read , do yoga and even play outdoors more. The hub and I are planning to hike Mt. Whitney this Spring with the boys in tow. This year we hiked to Vernal Falls in Yosemite with them and it that was awesome.
This year was filled with many events! I turned 30 in January – gave birth at home in the water to a 9lb. bouncing baby boy in April- had a root canal (the most horrible moment) -started to vlog and share more with you- like celebrating all the wonderful events of toddler hood… having a 2 yr. old boy is a lotta work sometimes…. LOL!
With all the work Tyler had to take on this year and the many weekends he worked…in 2010 we vow to take on less side jobs and concentrate on the greenhouse we started to build this year. Not to mention, all the other tiny side projects here … for instance our bathroom that still doesn’t have a working sink!!! Yes, projects in here get put on the back burner when your husband is doing everyone else’s projects!! It’s all good though.
I can’t believe 10 years has passed.In 2000, I became a mom for the first time! Well, to a dog anyway. I was the new owner of a Golden Retriever puppy, Heinken. Luckily, my father was the landlord and didn’t mind much. A year later, the hub and I bought our first home and became owners/parents of our second Golden Wonderful, Durgen. It’s crazy to think that I’ve been in the same place for 10 years and so, so much has taken place. The fact that we had two children in our own home in the past 3 years… and all the memories we made here. It makes me teary! Especially, since Durgen has been sick (I’ll spare the details for another post!).
Being green has been a journey in and of itself. I try not to set myself up for failure and only make changes that are within my limits. Honestly, when I started I didn’t think I’d be where I am. I actually didn’t know what to expect out of the bloggy blog world but I’m so happy I chose to start blogging even if I can’t post every single day. I’ve made some really great connections and have shared some great memories and my green lifestyle with YOU which makes it all so worth it!
2010 is going to be filled with many new adventures and experiences… I’m ready to ring in 2010!! Are you with me?
Cheers to greener rainbows!
Peace & Love
&
Happy New Year to you!
