Prompt: Friendship. How has a friend changed you or your perspective on the world this year? Was this change gradual, or a sudden burst?
My friendship with Penny puts the whole balancing act of working, Mom, Wife and self in perspective. Her life is a lot like mine. Her husband is like Mike. She has one girl also, and she works full time. When I have a difficult time balancing it all and stressing out at times, she is always there with a listening ear and some good advice. All though some advice, I have tried to do as she says but I have a hard time doing it. :-) Less patience, I guess.
Thank you Penny!!! for always being there.

Prompt: Lesson learned. What was the best thing you learned about yourself this past year? And how will you apply that lesson going forward?
I would have to say that it is, I can't do it all and it's okay. I don't know how I will apply that to my life going forward, other than to just remind myself of it constantly. And take some deep breaths! :-)

Prompt: Try. What do you want to try next year? Is there something you wanted to try in 2010? What happened when you did / didn't go for it?
I would like to try and learn to make myself a quilt for our bed. I bought my sewing machine with my bonus last year with the intention of making myself a quilt. I have made Josie several outfits and I have made her baby outfits and quilts, but I have yet to order my material and make my own quilt for our bed.
Not to deep, but that is what comes to mind.

2011 Creating Your Goddess Year
@GoddessLeoni
Prompt: Healing. What healed you this year? Was it sudden, or a drip-by-drip evolution? How would you like to be healed in 2011?
I would say I'm not "healed" in 2010. All though things are getting better, I don't completely feel like myself. This I would be so greatful to happen in 2011.

@skaw
Prompt: Beyond avoidance. What should you have done this year but didn't because you were too scared, worried, unsure, busy or otherwise deterred from doing? (Bonus: Will you do it?)
I should have taken more time to myself. Everyone says you should take care of yourself first before you are able to take care of another. I never do things for myself. I live for Josie and then comes Mike. I know it should be me, Mike and then Josie. But that is not how I am wired. However, I will try and be better.

Life After College: The Complete Guide to Getting What You Want
@jenny_blake
Prompt: Future self. Imagine yourself five years from now. What advice would you give your current self for the year ahead? (Bonus: Write a note to yourself 10 years ago. What would you tell your younger self?)
Take your time and enjoy life. Let the laundry and cleaning go, it will be there tomorrow. Sit down in the floor more and enjoy this time that Josie actually wants you around. Go out on dates with your husband at least once a month. He is what is there in the good and the bad and has put up with alot of attitude from you in the last 2.5 years. Forget about money, God will provide. You have plenty experience in this field and examples to look at. Don't forget these. Enjoy each day and if you want to learn something new, go for it!!! You enjoy it each and every time. And you always succeed. Don't look for other people's approval, the only one you need to impress is yourself.
I"m not going to do the 10 years ago thing cause it would take up so much time. But future Josie, always listen to your parents, you may not agree at the time, but they actually do know what they are talking about.
