What's the expression? Parenthood is the hardest job you'll ever have?

Maybe it's just T turning on the 'adorableness' around people he doesn't see all the time but he's adorable. And in a world full of "I have to babysit my son while his mother does..." you (and GD) really show that not all hope is lost in the parenting world.

I didn't know. I'm sorry

For 2011:
I spent most of 2010 in some sort of injury preventing me from really working out. I will go back to the gym and focus on my health.
Continue my education in ways that will allow me to branch out from tech support. So.Over.It.
Travel more, beyond Vegas. Maybe even go see E in F'in UT.
I lost 25lbs this year, gained some back with the holiday eating but I'm confident that will drop back off as soon as the end of the year pasts.

Never made it back to school, still so.over.IT but I am learning more in my job that can expand where I go in the IT world that isn't just helpdesk.

I went to see E in F'in UT TWICE. Once was fun (boy was that fun!). Shot my first ever gun (did you know they will let someone who has never shot a gun shoot a P90 for their first?!). Second time wasn't for fun but ended up being fun. The hospital didn't bat an eye at two men spray painting team logos on their bodies in the tiny bathroom.

I have also gotten better with establishing boundaries with my parents and finally ended a toxic friendship.

For 2012:

Continue to focus on my health, lose some more weight, gain some muscle and strength and fully quit smoking.

Continue to expand my career knowledge.

Continue to expand my social circles. I'm getting much better, coming out of my shell and making some socialize outside of work with friends at work. I need to get the courage to go volunteer somewhere to give something back and also to meet new people. This means I need to keep coming out of my shell.
