RIP, laptop, soon anyway

My Macbook has been limping along for about 2 years now. It tried to die once and we brought it back to life, and now it just works when it wants to, but mostly it naps. I am sure you have noticed my lack of blogging, it is because it is too cold downstairs, even on warm days, to spend as much time needed to bust a blog out! So far, if I am being honest with you all, 2012 has rocked my world. I managed to hang onto my seasonal job at Barnes and Noble and have enjoyed every minute spent there. I work with some really fun people, and use my past job experiences to not let the less than awesome moments or people bother me at all! Hopefully it will become a long term thing instead of seasonal, but I will cross that bridge in the next few weeks. Other ways that 2012 have rocked are that I have taken steps to make my life manageable. Which is AMAZING. I am always standing in my own way, always taking too long to do things, or waiting until it's too late to fix a problem. 2012 I have managed to save lawyer money, to write to a judge, to talk to a lawyer, to get all my parent statements wrapped up for Miss Julie's, and today I am doing w-2's. Gone is the depressed and indecisive girl of 2011, and back is the full of hope and optimism girl of 2007! Well, she is older and wiser now, but that is a good thing too. I am off work today, it's been 8 days since I had a day off, and I have so many great plans for it! New shower curtain and bath mat, Office supplies, iPad and keyboard, W-2's, and a home facial are my jumping off point! Who knows where the day may take me from there. Not to a margarita though, that's the old Julie, the new Julie has too much to accomplish and has learned that she has too much to live for to hide away from the world! Now that it is mid January, Happy 2012! I hope you all have a wonderful journey this year too!
