Happy New Year Wish

I hope everyone had an awesome Christmas.
I have always loved reading/writing poems.
Here is one I found today that I wanted to share.
New Years is such a great time to reflect and look forward to starting fresh and making some goals, and having things to look forward to. I know I am looking towards the new year with high hopes and I wish everyone and wonderful new year. I love you all.

My Happy New Year wish for you
Is for your best year yet,
A year where life is peaceful,
And what you want, you get.

A year in which you cherish
The past year’s memories,
And live your life each new day
Full of bright expectancies.

I wish for you a holiday
With happiness galore;
And when it’s done, I wish you
Happy New Year, and many more.

Why Me?

My whole entire life I have been deathly scared of spiders.
I remember when I was in elementary they asked us what we would do if we had a million dollars (Back then a million bucks went a long way!). Most of the kids said they would go to Disney Land, buy nice cars etc. Nope, I said I would hire someone to kill all of the spiders in the world. Haha.
Living in Hawaii for awhile, I had to learn to shake everything out, and double check everything or else there would be a spider the size of my head sneaking out somewhere. I hate Kane Spiders...I used to have nightmares about them, and still sometimes do.
Well I think because I have this fear I literally attract them to me. I am not joking. I remember seeing one scene in the Arachnophobia movie where there is a spider in the shower. So, I always check the shower up and down before showering because of that movie, and I shake out my towel before drying off. Today was no different. I searched the shower high and low before stepping in. I was shaving my legs and had just gotten done lathering up my knee. I turned to set the soap down and grab the razor and boom! There was a spider on my knee!! How did this happen? I was just lathering up and didnt see a thing! I had already checked the shower, and my leg was perched up on the window seal. I about died. I was squealing and trying to get out of the shower, I knocked all of the bottles off the seal, and got soap in my eyes. :( I hate em.
About a week ago I was about ready to crawl into bed and there was one in my sheets.
I just want to cry thinking about it.
Thanks to my wonderful loved ones (including my 4 year old niece) I dont have to kill them myself. Do you think If I pretend to love them they wont bother me anymore?

Chelsenezer Scrooge

One of my very favorite things to do this time of year is to go out and find fun gifts, and come home and sit by the fire, pop in a Christmas movie and wrap all my goodies.
For some reason, I am being such a Scrooge when it comes to shopping this year. I literally have not bought one single thing this year for Christmas. I dont know what to get anyone, and I kind of hate just buying something to buy. I want to buy something thoughtful, and something that people will enjoy. I am having no such luck.
So, since today is the 15th and I dont have one thing, I thought I would blog about my bad attitude so that I might turn things around and start being productive and enjoy!
I am just not a fan of the crowds. So...with all my complaining out of the way, wish me luck!


I dont want to leave this on a complete downer mood. I am totally enjoying my Sarah McLachlan Christmas CD! Love every word of it.
