Yeah, I really didn’t do that , did I? I didn’t put out a great big Merry Xmas or a Happy New Year on the day of. To be honest, I didn’t even think about it.
My Christmas was spent with family, as I hope you had the chance to be with those you hold dear.
My New Year’s Eve and Day was spent with my wife and children. I wouldn’t change it for the world.
I don’t really have resolutions this year, which is a first. I can’t say I have many goals, though I could mention one or two. Do I want to do stuff, to get things done this year?
You bet.
So, here are some of my hopes for this year.
I hope to get into the Air Force some time this year. My dental issues are taken care of. All I need to do is pass MEPS, and I’ll be one step closer. This has been well over a year, maybe even a year and a half now. Have I doubted my course? Of course I have. But, tenacity is all about staying in the game even when things get hard.
I want to be tenacious this year.
I want to write more this year. Perhaps you’ve seen the 500 words .gif at the upper right hand corner of the screen. It is a challenge by Jeff Goins to write 500 words per day. My January 2 is about over. This will probably post on January 3rd…but, this is my 500 words for January 2nd. 🙂
It’s not that I’m going to be a professional writer. Not at all. I want to be a USAF Chaplain, remember? But I do want to write in a consecutive, meaningful way. I may not write my book to be published, but I will write for the month of January…at least.
I want my legendary cloak, dangit! Surely, I can get that done this year. Right?
Finally, a little other WoW related hope. I want to flex raid a bit. I realy want that BoA bow that drops from Garrosh. I have a Horde hunter that is geared for it, but my Alliance hunter is a little undergeared at the moment. If you have a time on Monday mornings, or just about any other evening, please let me know. I’m good most nights but Wednesdays.
My dirty little desire is to one day make it on the Twisted Nether Blogcast. But, don’t tell Fimlys or Hydra now about it. It would feel to much like a pitty invite if I was able to be on any time soon. But still, wouldn’t that be the coolest thing ever! I mean no offense to The Tauren Think Tank, Convert to Raid Podcast, The Instance, Azeroth Round Table, and the many others that are out there. But, Fimlys and Hydra have it going on, YO!
Yes, a 40 year old nerdy, southern, white dude just said “YO!”
I want to do at least one ZKI™ this year. Time to get started on that.
I hope you all have a blessed 2014.
May each day grow in light, love and happiness.
