2013...here we come!

The new year is right around the corner and as always, I'm excited. I love the new year for all the typical reasons. I'm not big on resolutions but I love the fresh feeling of a new year. So much happens in a year's time, we all need a fresh start, even if it is mostly symbolic. If you only change one thing in your life for the better, your life will improve.
As for me, I'm going to make less time for negativity in my life. Primarily, its a work thing. During our down time, people tend to complain A LOT. As I listen to several people complain continuously, I often wonder if I'm that bad. I think venting is normal, but I never want to be known as a Janie COMPLAINIE. So I guess the upside is that it makes me mindful of my behavior. The downside however, is that I go home completely drained. My life is relatively drama free by choice, so its not fun to carry the weight of other people's mess. So before I return to work, I'm coming up with ways to take that out of my work experience.
The other thing will be taking better care of myself. Just all around. I love my family but I love myself too. So I'm taking myself off the bottom of my priority list.
And of course I would love to meet more readers and read more awesome books!
What changes are you making in the new year?
