Happy New Years Eve!

Happy New Year's Eve My Darlings!!!! I am so happy to say good bye to 2015 and start a new chapter in my life. I have all my lists prepped, I have my goals in my mind, and I very very motivated to change this coming year. What about you guys??? Anyone have any great resolutions that they want to share??? Don't be shy, no one on here but me! LOL

I have seen some great posts on facebook that have cracked me up, so I thought I would share the love and post them on here. If you haven't already figured it out I tend to have a very sarcastic sense of humor which comes from my Irish side, so if it is offensive to anyone...sorry, but I'm not really that sorry :)
This one is probably one of my faves, totally reminds me of my father and what he would say to someone who asked him what he was going to change about himself. My Cousin in-law Shalini posted it, so big up to her for being awesome.


Who doesn't love Calvin and Hobbs?...the younger generation that's who...man these kids have no idea what they are missing out on...I personally have made sure that my daughter watches some of the retro shows that I used to watch like Full House so that she can know whats up...to a point.

Ok last one...so ironic since I have decided to become one of these cray cray people this year with unrealistic goals of change, but why not...what's the worst that can happen right???

I am wishing you all a very safe and happy New Year's eve, I will be at home with my girls enjoying a quiet New Year's eve safe and warm. Raise your glass for me and I will do the same with my beer!

Starting Fresh

Since I have truly been a fair-weather blogger for the last 5 years I have decided to restart this year and really really work at blogging a few times a week. 2016 is going to be a whole new year for me and I am really planning on changing a ton of stuff in my life. I feel like I have become very complacent in my day to day life with my family and work. Something about a new year, and a clean start is always so appealing, its like getting a do over to try and fix what you messed up the previous year. I personally am taking charge of my life and am going to try and be present in the hear and now for myself and my girls. I am planning on the usual new years resolutions like losing weight, saving money, learning something new...etc. I am also embarking on a few Challenges from various social media outlets. I am going to do a monthly instagram challenge, I am doing a blogging challenge for the year, a savings challenge, and one that will make me a better/healthier person. Now I realize that seems like a lot to take on for this cray cray mother of 2, but I really feel like its something that will keep me motivated and interested.

On top of all that I want to really work at my friendships, the old and the new. I feel like i really get caught up in my day to day life that I have ignored the friendships that I have and I really could use a better personal social life. I am 32 years old with a 9 and 2 year old, I want them to enjoy their childhood with friends and family. Not just getting taxied around to activities and school. Life if about living and that is exactly what I plan to do this year...live it up. Since I lost my father 3 years ago life has been very difficult for me, the changes and challenges have gotten the better of me most times and I allow the stress to rule me. No more, I leave it in 2015 and encourage anyone brave enough to follow me to do the same. Let's make 2016 the best year yet.
