Goodbye 2006

2006 has been a year of ups and downs. Some great highs such as 5 years of marriage, 30 years of me and attending my commencement ceremony to get my AA degree. The best part for me was July 13th when my oncologist told me that my cancer was in remission.

There are some downs to 2006. Our family went through the wringer with my cancer and we are emotionally, physically and financially worn out. 2007 will be a time to heal all that.

My new year's resolution: staying healthy!

I find this song so perfect when thinking of a fresh start.
I'm Movin' On by Rascal Flatts

I’ve dealt with my ghosts and I’ve faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I’ve found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I’m at peace with myself
I’ve been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I’m movin’ on

I’ve lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they’re always the same
They mean me no harm but it’s time that I face it
They’ll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don’t belong
I’m movin’ on

Chorus
I’m movin’ on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there’s no guarantees, but I’m not alone
There comes a time in everyone’s life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn’t
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I’ve loved like I should but lived like I shouldn’t
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I’m movin’ on

I’m movin’ on
I’m movin’ on

HAPPY NEW YEAR my friends! I wish you a love and sparkle filled 2007!
