New Year
A new year has begun and I feel like all the good bloggers post about the new year. They either look back on big moments in the past year or look forward to upcoming events in the new one. I sat in front of my computer for a long time trying to think of something worthy of a new years post. And I can't really come up with anything. I'm not really a big new year person. To me, nothing really changes except that I'll spend the next four months writing 20145. Which is so annoying.
I've made the same new year's resolution for the past three or so years. It's to floss everyday. And I already know that I'm going to fail. I know this because it's the third consecutive year that I've made this same resolution. I want to floss. I enjoy the thought of myself flossing every day. And I hate the condescending look my dentist gives me when my gums start bleeding the millisecond after the floss hits them. I just never actually do it.
It's hard for me to look forward to things or events in 2015. Because I have NO IDEA what is going to happen in my life. Dan and I are moving in less than two weeks. I have no clue where I'm going to work, what our ministry is going to look like, who my friends are going to be, where we're going to go to church or what kind of puppies we're going to adopt. My life is one big blurry question mark. Sometimes that excites me but sometimes that terrifies me.
And am I the only one who thinks of 1995 as 10 years ago? BUT IT WAS TWENTY YEARS AGO. When will my brain understand that? Is it going to be 2054 and someone will mention 10 years ago and I'll still think of the 90s? When will my head wrap itself around the basic time continuum?
Well, that's all I got in me for a new years post. Hopefully by the next holiday I'll have some loftier ideas to discuss.
