Well - here we are. 2013. The world didn't end. Lol!

I spent a lot of time thinking about how I want this year to unfold for me while I was back home. I didn't exactly make resolutions. I set a few goals for myself though.

I guess the big one for me is to go out and do whatever it takes to make myself happy. I need to find some inner peace. I have realized I am the only person who is responsible for my happiness. I have realized I cannot make anyone else happy if I am not happy with myself. So that is the most important thing - in my opinion - that I need to accomplish in 2013. I feel that the first step in making this happen is to move back home. I am working towards that as of now.... saving up money and selling whatever I can so I don't have to move it. Ball is rolling... I can talk about it on here because nobody reads this! Lol! Especially nobody from work. I am not ready to tell them yet.

I also would like to spend more time on my art. I would also like to spend more time on here. It's a good outlet to vent. Especially lately.... but my vents haven't all been art related! Lol!

I would very much like to cut back on my recreational wine consumption..... LOL!!! So far I have done well with that one. Except for last night - but it was only a few small glasses. ;)

I am trying to be less negative. I think my overall unhappiness has pulled me down a path of negativity. I would like to try to get off of that path. I am also going to try to keep my opinions to myself where some topics are concerned. I am very opinionated and I think my mouth gets me in trouble sometimes.

I also want to stay a single girl for the year. Not gonna lie - I know exactly what I want and I have decided to not settle for anything less. I am actually getting comfortable with the fact that I might end up alone. Just me and a pile of kitties. Lol!

Finally - I am hoping to acquire a horse. That is a 30 year old dream of mine. My uncle has an acreage. Maybe I can board there..... I am going to work my ass off to try to make this a reality. Nobody is going to do it for me. I deserve one. :)
