How in the world is it already 2016? I have no idea. Am I the only one that wasn’t ready for the New Year? This year I didn’t even come up with resolutions. Mostly because I didn’t have a chance to pause and think about what those would be…until now. Since the excitement of the holidays is over, and I am trying to get back into the mundane swing of things, I keep thinking about what I want out of this year.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

Well, there are lots of reason…1) the work I get paid for is my priority 2) I have a lot less time than I used to and 3) it just became such a chore.
