A New Year

Well, as I'm sure most everyone is doing today, they are reflecting on the past year and preparing for a new one. 2012 was a great year and I really don't have any complaints. I got married! Everything after that is just a bonus!

Here are some highlights of my 2012:

• My husband (then fiance) got a great job in Lynchburg (technically this was still 2011 but he started in January 2012)
• We moved him to Lynchburg (January)
• Had an amazing bridal shower (February)
• Hosted a baby shower for a close friend (February)
• We got married (March)
• Had an amazing honeymoon in Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania (March)
• My niece had her first birthday (April)
• Found a great job as a veterinary assistant (May)
• Joined Planet Fitness (June)
• Worked our 5th straight year of Studentz Camp (July)
• Started this blog (October)
• Vacationed in Hatteras with my family (October)
• Finished my last (full) semester of college (December)

I'm sure there are many more things I could type up but those are just some things that stick out right now.

Without turning this into a major bucket list, there are a few things I want to do in 2013...goals or resolutions if you will:

• Get a second part time job or one full time job
• Officially graduate college with my B.S. in Business Management
• Start online Veterinary Technician school/and other certifications
• Exercise more
• Eat healthier
• Grow the blog
• Volunteer more
• Buy more of our food from local farms
• Run a 5k with my husband
• Read more

So basically, live more and live better. Pretty usual stuff. I'm excited for 2013 because this will be my first full year as a wife and nothing can beat that! Bring it on, 2013!

What were your favorite times/events from 2012? What are some of your goals or resolutions for 2013? 

Till next time,

Election Day 2012!

Today I'm thankful that despite who wins this presidential election today, I serve a God who is on the true throne. I know that might seem cheesy but it's true. No matter how bad our country and our world gets, my Jesus reigns. 

I voted today! Did you? I hope you all went out and completed your civic duty and voted for the man or woman who will serve as our President for the next four years. I don't care if you voted Republican, Democrat, Constitutional, Libertarian, or even Green party...as long as you voted! Ok, maybe I care a little...the fate of our nation depends on it!

I won't get into politics...I know we've all had plenty of it these past few months!

I'll keep this post short and sweet and I'll see you all tomorrow when the next President of the United States of America is chosen!

Did you vote? Are you going to be glad it's all over, despite the outcome?

Till next time,
Catherine
