Mostly just a record of some kind for my kids to laugh at and cry over someday. Probably good evidence for their future therapists.

The Year of Get er Done.
When Dad left earth I sat back on my heels and realized some things. I don't have a million years here. Self care or the lack thereof affects everyone, not just myself. And life is too short to let insecurities and weird crap hold you back. I had a year of healing/realizing but the next one was "get er done." I got my mole removed, took Jody on a honeymoon, had my wisdom teeth extracted and got braces. These silly 'unfinished business' items were dragging me down. They were things I really wanted, yet I always denied myself while wasting money on Starbucks and silly fripperies. As the year wraps up, I realize all of these little things are leading up to the big one. I have to decide what I'm going to be when Hazel goes to kindergarten. Will I be a retail clerk at Home Depot? Go to seminary? Get a Real Estate license? Go to college and just see what they can make me into? Go to trade school and become a welder? I don't know yet and I am realizing that this decision is the one that has always paralyzed me. I don't know if it's a lack of self confidence or a fear of making a mistake. Luckily for me, Jody will support and encourage me. He always has. But if I could just keep 2015 a little longer and put this off... I probably would... even if I had to get my wisdom teeth pulled again.
