The Blog with the first blog for 2009

So reading back over the last couple of months of entries, I am beginning to see a pattern. A "woe is me" attitude that has crept up on me and taken up full time residence in my head.

After some careful consideration and Tenancy Advice - I have evicted said attitude from Kath's Head under Section 3 Subsection a(iii) of the Tenancies Act "Thou shalt not cause undue emotional upheaval". Ok so the lines between the law and the 10 commandments have become a little blurry but this is MY blog so STFU.

It is the 9th day of what I am determined shall be the BEST year that I have ever spent on this earth. Ok so on the 5th day my brand NEW month old laptop had a heart infarct and at present I am going to war with the manufacturers to have this fixed under warranty. But even so I REFUSE to let this bring me down.

We ended 2008 with a GLOWING school report for Boy Child and he is approaching the coming year with some optimism and excitement. Going into Year 10 we are now dealing with the business end of school - he is thrilled with his choice of subjects and I am hopeful (as always) that 2009 for HIM shall be HIS YEAR.

I have a milestone birthday approaching - as I have wailed in the past about turning 40 I am now looking forward to it - BRING IT I say - it is with renewed purpose and a sense of accomplishment that I will embrace this milestone.

Plans are underway for a road trip I intend to undertake in March - 10 days or so of just meandering along a wonderful stretch of coastline - no clocks - no phones - no computers. I cannot WAIT.

I have SO much to be thankful for yet for some reason I lost sight of that - I will strive to make sure it doesn't happen again.

HAPPY 2009!!!!!
