Dear 2011 self,

Hey, today is the 31st and 2012 is patiently waiting to set up shop. I'm writing to recap our year, okay?

2011 was.... okay. Nothing to derail your progress. Talking about progress, where was yours? This year was stalemate. Nothing was planned or executed, why? Get it together in '12. You are too skilled and too smart to live averagely.

However, I'm excited for next year (tomorrow). You're getting married in June. Yay! And who we fooling, FINALLY! But I also want you to finish school. You won't be happy until you do. I know you're working on finding another job opportunity so I'm going to give you a pass on that.

Family:
Strengthen your bonds. I know, I know. But make an effort. Spend more time with your sisters. Take your mother out sometimes.

Money:
Save. Anything. $10 a week. Just save. Oh and pay your bills on time.

Social life:
Expand your circle. Attend different venues and events. Network.

Love life:
Make time with Officer. Do random nice things for him. Be and stay committed.

Parenthood:
Have patience. Laugh with them more. Cherish their childhood. Be more creative in the time you spend with them. Build memories.

2012 will be your year. This is the building phase. Laying the foundation for your future. Plan wisely. Use the right materials. And don't take everything so seriously.

Love and Toodles
