I am still alive and well. Just been a little busy with all of the holiday hoopla and what not. Recently, I celebrated a special birthday; several of my closest friends and family members joined me in a fantastic dinner party and comedy extravaganza.
This Thanksgiving was truly phenomenal (from the food to the soul train-line). The only thing that was missing was Mr. Right (keep reading, you will hear more about that later)
Christmas was a real treat. I am so thankful to have had the joy of Christmas to slowly unfold before my daughter and I. Jesus is the reason for the season.
As the New Year quickly approaches, I think it is about time I create an action plan to reach the many goals I have set for myself (or vice-versa, should I say). I know I need to start working on my PH. D….just haven’t decided on exactly what discipline. Social Work is a field of study that truly holds my interest. With a Doctorate in Social Work I feel it would feed my desire to be a better humanitarian. Giving back to the world is a very important goal that I must accomplish.
As with everything else that is going on in my life, I must learn how to be a better financial planner. Meeting my financial obligations is not the problem; however, I must learn how to save and account for the money I make and spend. It’s easily said than done, but this is one area I will pay closer attention.
My love life is good. Mr. Right and I met one year ago and have been going strong every since. He is so perfect for me; we complement each other very well. Besides being tall, dark and handsome, he is kind, generous and thoughtful. Though we come from very different walks of life, I think that is what attracts me to him most. He is an unselfish and sensible man, which in turn forces me to have a different outlook on life. He makes me feel like I can achieve any and every goal I set for myself.
This summer I have an opportunity to travel to South Africa for six weeks. Of course, Mr. Right thinks it is a trip to die for. I have always wanted to travel to Africa and marvel at its natural beauty and culture, but I have my reservations (will blog about the pros and cons).
Signing off until next time.
