basildestiny | Wait, you want me to count flocks of sheep?

I was just wondering. Maybe I've been doing things the wrong way. I don't remember when I started doing this. But at some point, I started keeping track of the bad memories. It wasn't intentional.

I was listening to some old Xena wavs featuring Joxer. And I was reading "LOL John Mayer's" blog. And just when did this start?

That's going to be my New Year's resolution.

My resolutions so far:

1) Read my Bible more. Get back into the church routine.

2) Stop keeping track of the bad memories and taking notes on the good times.

3) Lose weight! So typical, but it must be done.

That's really frustrating that I started doing that. No wonder I haven't been enjoying myself as much lately. I've been focusing too much on the negative. I need to focus more on the positive and the good things that happen. I know I did that last year when I had a super huge crush. That's what made the days so great. I focused on the good things.

I'm going to add a new section to my daily entries which will include the good things that happened today.

Good things that happened today:

1) Uploaded 8 gb of music to my Ipod. I still have 22 gb free. That was a large chunk, if not all, of my collection on my hard drive. I remain to figure out how to upload my videos. They may require converting before I can upload. Then it'll be time to burn all of my hard copy CDs. I only have 400 or so.

2) I woke up next to my husband. My best friend for the past year.

3) I have a puppy who is very sweet and almost nearly potty trained. I just need to remember not to set her down on the ground to run around until after taking her out for a walk first.

4) I enjoy my team. My coach (supervisor) is great. And my team thanked me for the Christmas cards I wrote out and spent tons of time working on.

5) I mailed out all of my Christmas cards last night. So now I have time to read again!

6) Going to lunch tomorrow with my mom, my brother, my sister and my husband. And I should have enough time to go by the social security office to get my new card with my new name on it.

7) And don't forget those things you always take for granted. My health, my job, the health of my friends and family, having loved ones, a car, a home, more than enough food.

8) Uploading Xena wavs on the Ipods has had me laughing all day. Oh the big hearts for Joxer. I forgot how much laughing at Ted was. I think I may be saving up for Xena DVDs soon. Must make Joxer icon when I get home.

9) I love my Ipod. I think it deserves it's own number.

I see you holding your grudges. I see you gunning them down. I see you silencing your sisters. And I love you still.
