I know what the calendar says but I’m stuck on December 31st 2012. When I was on vacation Daniel and I planned to have a nice evening cuddled up in bed …maybe a glass of wine and Netflix to bring in the New Year. I have heard over and over again that what you are doing when the clock strikes 12 is what you’ll be doing the entire year. Spending more down time together is a must for us in 2013.
…Christmas weekend, the non-stop~ness that was our lives for the past 5 months crept up on me, and made a home in my throat. There IT sat, patiently waiting for me to pick up the pace. I laughed in ITs face, this unwanted presence was NOT going to take me. I caught up on my DVR for days. I rested. On Friday I felt better and when I least expected it, IT jumped in my face and yelled SYKE.
On NYE I went to the Drs with what I hoped was NOT Strep. I sat in a crowded waiting room where half the people wore masks (Just in case they had the FLU). I was happy to hear that it was a cold turned to a bacterial virus. NYE I took a nap so I could see the new year come in and maybe listen to my love’s voice but at 11 PM, midnight just seemed too far away.
Today I took the last of my Amoxicillin, now I just have to remember to rest. Rest is important; So is celebrating the new year. I thought that this week would be my NYE, but now Daniel is sick. So we’ll be celebrating on January 18th, when he’s taken his last Amoxicillin pill. I can’t wait. 2013 is going to be great! These last 10 days have been amazing, full of blessings, and news to force me to make changes in my life that are way overdue.
Next week I’ll be sharing my NEW Year Resolutions… I’m not late. I technically have 8 more days to plan them out accordingly. I’ll be sharing things I’ve only shared with a handful of people. I’ll share them with you to prove to the universe that I’m serious about my life and that I take nothing for granted. Over the last few weeks, the one thing that has struck me that I’ve lacked in previous years is an Accountability Partner. I hope that I can count on you to be that. It is a lot to ask but I have faith that you’re here reading this for a reason.
In the meantime, please share with me what your NYE was like! I’m sure it was AWEsome but I need details…give me and Daniel some options to choose from!

When I was little, we would fill a shoe box with grass, the night before Three Kings Day. I remember
that come January the east coast was cold and finding enough grass to put in the box for myself and my sisters was a chore. I wondered if there would be enough grass to satisfy the camels of los Tres Reyes or if we would end up without gifts. Mami would always convince us that there was enough and come morning she proved us right. They always left us regalos. It has been many moons since we celebrated the Three Kings in my house. My sisters and I are all grown now. Our traditions of our youth have not been practiced with the next generation. However, I know that when my kids finally come to greet this earth, they’ll have similar experiences as mine. In my old age I’ve realized how important my Spanish Heritage is.
What cultural traditions do you celebrate?
…I leave you with a small piece of today’s mass.

| My last gift wrapped! |
It’s Christmas Eve and I have officially finished wrapping my last gift! Note to self: Next year purchase gift cards! I finished my holiday shopping weeks ago, yet I managed to pick up more stocking stuffers than I knew what to do with. When I stopped at Kohls on Friday to pick up wrapping paper I walked out spending close to 300 bucks. Why? No idea! Did you go crazy this holiday season?
Did you remember to buy batteries for any of the gifts you bought? Kevin didn’t forget. Check out this hilarious video of Kevin Hart.
What do you think of my handmade card on the wrapping paper in the photo above? Do you get creative with your holiday wrapping?
