The BL Couples began tonight...

So~ I am not sure how I feel about this kick off business.

But, because the show began again tonight AND the new year is here I have a new focus~ my focus is HAPPINESS. One part of my happiness is to stay active, to run, to be accountable for the things I want to accomplish. Welcome to my phase 1~








On the right side of this page is a tracker.... I am putting it out there to you (both) ;) Track my running, let me know when I have dropped the ball, and keep me in check. I am hoping that just knowing it is up there will keep my feet pounding the pavement. :)

Someone is 10+10+5+1

Reunited, it had been awhile

PLaying "Booogie Star" and "American Idol"on the Wii

Happy New Year to You and Yours

happiness 
–noun
1. the quality or state of being happy.
2. good fortune; pleasure; contentment; joy

My word for 2009~ Mandy had a great suggestion for one word you would focus on for the next year. I was already thinking that remembering all the GOOD things in my life is a better way to live, and what a better time to start than right after the holidays. We all seem to remember how great our family and friends are around the holidays, but I want to focus on that every season :).
