But a swing nonetheless.
I won't go so far as to call them resolutions but I will be making some changes. The least of which is giving up coffee. Why? Just because. I hate missing a day and being overcome by withdrawal headaches. I don't want anything to have that much control over me. Green tea is an adequate substitute. For now.
I need a new job. Not need as in about-to-get-fired but need as in this job is doing nothing for me. But that's several months down the line; I just found out that I'm getting a (tiny) raise and I need to research the where and what and whys of a new career. Which may involve going back to school.
The Kid? Cheburashka? She's growing like you wouldn't believe. Great kid when she isn't working a nerve. About to graduate from elementary school and deciding on who's going to be her date for prom. I'm practicing my roundhouse kicks (making sure they're the perfect height to take out a wayward 10 year old boy).
One thing I want to get back to is reconnecting with my Internet peeps. So I plan to start commenting on blogs more often. Letting you all know so you don't wonder "Iris who?"
Welcome back, baby girl! Been missin' that cheekiness. If you're commenting I guess that means I have to actually post something, right?

Kicking coffee from your diet can be tough; a lot of us in our own office run on this stuff! Did you succeed with your resolution?
Of course there are a few benefits to your health, especially for your heart.
