So remember I told you that I dabble in FB every now and then? I do, I like to check on some old friends and see pics. Boy, some of those old school pics are super retro. I really am old.

Anyways, I was on there one day and I noticed that there were quite a few people on there that married their high school sweetheart! A handful. I am amazed by this. How did they know thats what they wanted when they were 15 years old? I mean, I was 25 before I knew what I didn't want...

I'm jus sayin.

Like, look at me and me hubby. Love is strong. Home is a happy one. But had we met in high school? I don't know that we would of been a good fit. I didn't know who I was. Maybe he wanted different things back then. Who knows?

I could of never seen me marrying anyone from high school. As much as I may have tried to talk myself into it back then, it wouldn't have worked. My life experiences led me on another path and that prepared me for the love that I have right now. Had I not gone through that? I might not of been able to see my blessings when they were presented to me.

Does that make any sense? I guess I'm just in shock that you can know what you want at such a young age. I didn't. Hell, I got friends in they 30's that been married once or twice and still don't know what it is they want. Go figure.

I have decided that in 2010 to be a little more selfish. That's right folks, it's all about me. NOT. Can't even write that without giggling. Anyone who knows me is laughing too right now.

No, my focus this year is to do more to better myself. To be a better mother, wife, and person. To spend time with who I want to spend time with. That means calling up folks who I haven't seen in ages and hang out a little. That means, not being bothered with the fake and phony and doing something just because. Life is way to short for that BS.

The new year is shaping up to be an interesting one, that's for sure. Check back in later!
