New Year's Eve and Resolutions

We had an extremely quiet NYE. The kids stayed at Grandma's, except Bear who spent the night at a friend's. Our traditions include eating black eyed peas (the more you eat, the more luck you have - it's a Southern thing!) and to spend the day doing what you want to do all year. So Hubby and I


New Year's Resolutions:
Do this more often



Get more and quit leaving Hubby like this



Get more exercise so I stop looking like this
Find out more about attachment disorders in adults and work on my own healing



Find and get a good job

Give the house a good cleaning

Word for 2012

I used to do this, but haven't done it in years. My friend GB's Mom inspired me.

The word I've chosen this year is "PRESENT." As in being present and engaged in life (not gifts).

Since being diagnosed with a "Dismissive" attachment disorder (during Bear's thorough neuropsych evaluation), I've struggled with trying to figure out how to heal and work on this.

Part of Bear's neuropsych evaluation is a daily questionnaire where one of the questions is "How close did you feel to Bear today?" It hurts to check the box for "Not at all," and sometimes I chose, "Slightly," just because I can't stand to check "Not at all" every day.
