So in the spirit of change I am going through my house and deciding that I need more change!  So I am going to paint my family room and kitchen, re-finish the kitchen cabinets and hope and pray for new counter tops sometime next year!

I also want to move all the furniture, its drives my hubs crazy, but... I love to move it!  It feels so fresh and new when you re-arragne your life.  When I was younger I remember going through all kinds of life re-arrangements,  perhaps this is why I can't sit in the same place for too long.  Here's the breakdown...
Went to pre-school, then went to kindergarden & 1st grade at New Haven (I think!)  then Neil Haffley Elementary for 2nd grade, then St. Anthony's for 3rd-8th grade.  Then my first two years of highschool at East Union.  Then my lovely parents decided to move to TX where I went to Coppell High for my last two years.  Even in college I never went to the same school for more than two years.

So as I write this I begin to realize that my life is just a series of changes.  Even though I have now lived in the same city for 5 1/2 years and in the same house for 3 1/2 the people and circumstances of my life change around me constantly.
We can deal with change in many ways, I deal differently in every situation.  When the people around me change I have a hard time.  But I think I am used to starting over.  Used to making new friends and building new relationships.  But I am tired of that.
I think that I don't know how to sit still because as I go over this I realize nothing in my life has stayed the same for more than 2-5 years at a time.

So here is my new goal.  Appreciate what I have, Love my friends no matter how they change, and embrace the fact that I am lucky to have so many people in my life.  And love the fact that my life is mine and although some change is good, I don't have to make change just because something hasn't changed in a while...
