within the last 24 hours of 2011

I started writing this after 2 am on December 31st.  I cannot believe a year has gone by since the last New Year's Eve.  It's crazy to think about how much has happened-good, bad, beautiful, and ugly.  Time flies, and I hear it only goes faster as the years goes on.

Anyways... people make New Years Resolutions.  I have done it before, and have been successful once. I have New Year's Goals for 2012.

I want to live life freely, without bitterness or anger.

I want to trust myself and God more and more.

I want to read more (this usually makes the list... but I am just not a reader).

and, I REALLY hope to end up in Italy this summer. (Lord willing, of course).
