Goodbye 2012, Hello 2013!!!

2012 started out as a good year for me but was marked by bad news and tough times . . . and then I found out I had breast cancer and had to have chemo.

Chemo is by far the hardest thing I have ever been through and I have been through a lot.  I am 7 and a half weeks out from chemo and I struggle with a lot of things I shouldn't,  newborn babies have more hair than I do, and I don't have the stamina or focus that I used to.  But I am alive and I showed Cancer that it is not welcome here.

I am not one to make New Year's Resolutions but I do want to make some changes in my life.  First I want to do more things.  Do things that make me happy, do things that scare me, do things that remind me I am alive.  I want to experience all I can with each passing day cause I never know if it will be my last.

I want to go Ice Skating more - I started skating as an adult and took lessons off and on for 10 years.  I want to get back to going.  But I can't right now - I have horrible balance and  muscle tone.  soon though, really soon.

I want to travel more.  I have been lucky enough to be able to travel to lots of places and I want to continue that.

I want to feel motivated to post happy things on Facebook.  I am currently posting negative or complaining posts.  I want to change that.  Correction - I will change that.  I know the better I feel the happier my posts will be, although my favorite post all year was my Pathology Post.

I guess what I am rambling about is that I just want to make sure I live every day to its fullest :-)
