Happy New Year!!!

Oh my goodness! I can't believe that 2009 is here, my one year blog anniversary has come and gone, and I'm just updating my blog. I feel like such a slacker, but I have been really busy.

Let's go down memory lane shall we?! I mentioned earlier that I spent Christmas in Mississippi with my Mom's side of the family. It was so much fun. I ate more than I've probably eaten all year, and comsumed more calories in days than I normally consume in a week, but hey...it was SO WORTH IT! Surprisingly, I didn't gain a pound, and I'm still on track! It feels so good to feel better about my body...so good!

I have pictures of Christmas, but to be completely honest, I'm just too lazy to upload them. They're coming though..I mean, you have to see how Karmen has grown!

I spent New year's at church with my parents, and then went to my Godmother's house to watch movies and just hang out. It was a great night!

My thoughts on 2008 are all over the place. I mean, I experienced a lot of joys, and some sadness, but through it all, I'm a better person for the journey! God is so good, and His mercies are new every morning...great is His faithfulness...! And now that 2009 is here...woo...bring it on! I'm expecting this to be my best year ever, and I can't wait to experience the journey! I started a new journal at the beginning of this year. Journaling is something that I do to process my thoughts. It's so relaxing for me, and felt that I needed a "fresh start" so to speak for the new year. I can't wait to see what joys, sorrows, funny stories, successes, and random thoughts these pages will bring. If you think about it, it's really exciting!

Have you seen Bride Wars? If not, I urge you to grab a couple of your girlfriends, and go...it's so worth it! I've seen it twice; with Danni and Taviea, and then with Malitta. It's been a while since I've laughed so hard at a movie, and I did shed a tear or two. My advice: grab your best friend, and go see the movie...you won't regret it!

I have more to share, but I need to go put a new load of laundry in...I'll write more later! ~J
