Counting Blessings and New Year Resolutions

Christmas came and went. Soon, the end of year will be here. As per the many years that flew by, this year past too quickly as well. It is actually pretty scary to realize that year 2013 is almost ending. I wonder what have I accomplished this year. 


I took a few minutes to look through my calendar (I got goldfish memory lah) and listed down the blessings that I wanted to give thanks for.


Things to Give Thanks for:

.
Strong marriage with Daddy Lim
.
Happy family
.
Lil Isaac started pre-nursery without much drama and cleared of hearing issue
Plenty of holidays to spice up life (safe journey, trips and great companionship)
.
New job with stable income that allows more time with the kids and less stress
Supportive boss and great colleagues
.
Accepted as PV for GWPS
Great friendship and strong bond with the SHSS girls
New car
.
Great help from Popo with kids and household chores

For the 1st 2 items, plenty had taken place around me to remind me that it is so important to have great marriage and a happy family. That also drives the reason for me to work hard, to help bring home the bacon. As for the last item, Popo gave me great heartaches and pains this year. However, I cannot deny that she is a great help and for now, I chose to look only at the blessing.


I have also set my New Year resolution for the coming year. For year 2013, I have only accomplished 1 out of the 5 resolutions. The unfulfilled resolutions were brought over from last year and all looked so familiar. Lol. Losing weight never quits appearing on my list every year. It is a permanent resident already.  


New year resolution 2014:

Lose weight!
Drive confidently
.
Couple time once a month
Observe my dental and medical (etc) appointment

I hoped that I could accomplish all the resolutions next year. It should be that tough. Lol.
