Happy New Year

Welcome, and Good - Bye... 2014 was a year of total transformation for me. I don't need to rehash it. A year ago I spent NYE eating Pizza and drinking Champaign with an almost total stranger. It was the best offer I had. Tonight I am sitting alone, blogging, drinking Presecco by myself and with the person I have learned to love the most. Myself. It has not always been that way. I remember when I first moved to Arizona, telling a friend that I loved living in the woods outside Flagstaff because it gave me the luxury of being alone without being lonely. Hard to imagine that was in 1978... and here I am tonight oddly feeling the same way. Blessed to have family and friends that are much like family. truly blessed to have spent so much time and so many "moments" with so many of those people. Blessed to have refound one of my life's 'besties'. 2014 was truly awesome. I have made myself a priority. Selfishly ... and someday I know that a person will change all that. but for now... it works. Do I wish that day were tonight... yes... but without regrets I turn the calendar to 2015. Not one to make resolutions ... this year has much in store for me... that are forcing me into some resolutions. A stronger commitment to doing this Triathlon thing. plans to continue developing my relationships.... continue my time with family... and maybe find "him". But while I wait patiently... I have to decide if I can give the time to developing that .... for now... I am truly happy. I plan to continue that happiness. No plans for a great adventure... no plans for a huge life change... plans to just make it a good year. Full of what life is about... taking today and living it! Thank you world, for handing me roses... without too many thorns.
