New Years Resolutions and other random thoughts

I received the best Christmas gift ever and it was from my 8 yr old daughter. I unwrapped 3 boxes within each other and finally made it to a small white box. A box that signaled there was some type of jewelry inside. I opened it and it was a beautiful necklace with a white heart on the chain. It was a generation necklace and there were three women drawn in black on the necklace and when I turned it over it was engraved Sheila, Sarah, Taylor. My mom passed away in 1995 and never got the chance to meet my daughter. It was very emotional and I cried like there was no tomorrow. See, I had just got through telling my cousin Kasey that I felt like I get the raw end of the deal at Christmas since my mother died. I have to do everything and my dad doesn't do those little things that would mean the world to me. It was that necklace that made me realize that she is with me and that my dad is just a man and I need to get over it.
In addition to my daughter coming up with the gift, she had a lot of help from her granny. Her granny Bonnie is a blessing to me and I love her dearly. That would be her fathers mother. If only all mothers could be close to their husbands/boyfriends/ex-husband/ex-boyfriend's mothers.
Christmas has come and gone and it's kind of depressing! I tend to look for 2007 to be my best year ever.

My New Year's Resolution goes something like this:

1 - Change eating habits and eat to live and not live to eat. Weight Loss Goal - 60 pounds

2 - Work out at least 3 days a week and conquer the stairs at work (12 story building)

3 - Work my butt off and get my credit cards paid off and get in a position to buy a house

4 - Lay off the kid, lol..........don't push her so hard. Softball and Guitar lessons should be fun!

5 - Read more books, it is good for the soul and the mind. (ie. cooking for Dummies)

and last but not least.......Patience is a virtue! 1 MBA class at a time for sanity purposes.

NASCAR predictions

Carl Edwards has a comeback season.

Dale Jr. signs a contract with RCR (don't laugh, it's going to happen, especially if Teresa keeps running her mouth)

Jimmie Johnson has the worst season ever! I can only hope.

Toyota makes a huge FLOP in Nascar.

Erin Crocker. Who? No Comment.

I'm still mad at the following people:

Dale Jarrett for jumping ship to MWR & Toyota

Elliot Sadler for jumping ship to the Dodge camp

Mark Martin (will always be a fan) for driving a Chevy part-time in 2007

I'm a FORD girl and can't help it. It's a curse and I was born into it, lol.
