A New Year

2009 is only about 2 weeks and oh my goodness!

As my friend joked to me recently, what isn't new about my life in '09?

First, there was the new job. Then, the engagement (which then comes a wedding, obviously). Now, triplets. No, not mine. But a very dear friend and her husband are expecting their little ones any day now (hopefully later rather than sooner). Can you imagine?!?! Triplets. Woah!

And so here I sit, enjoying a lazy Sunday afternoon w/my now-fiance, who is celebrating a birthday today (I'd say how old, but he'd probably give me a face) and my dear friend Beth is held up in a hospital trying to convince her babies that they need to stick it out in her uterus for a few more days if possible.

What does that mean with regards to me? Well, it certainly means I cannot bitch about working 60+ hours last week. Not when others have had other ordeals. I can however admit to enjoying my new action packed job; where it is more customer service rather than case-working. Which some people would probably react by saying "and that's better how exactly" and when I'm thinking "thank you, thank you, thank you." I'll take dealing with someone in a foul mood because their transcripts haven't arrived over teenage pregnancy and drug abuse ANY DAY! At least, I say that now.

In any case, I'm exhausted, but in a good way. Now all I have to do is keep it up, go to school and kick ass, oh... and plan a wedding. That's it. No big deal. Oh and also lose about 20 lbs in order to look super hot in a big, fluffy white dress.

I really wish there were more hours in the day.

Time management IS possible. I promise.

2009 will be a busy year for sure!

I can't imagine triplets. Wow. One is busy enough. I have a new respect for parents of multiples (and I have an "easy" child!). All the best to your dear friend. :)
