A New Year....

Well here it is, 2012 and I have decided that I am kind of over "New Year's". I mean yes I am looking forward to this being a better year than 2011, however I think I have thought that for the last 2 or 3 years and none of those years have been really been that better.

I don't mean to be my pessimistic self, however this year has not even started well, at least not in the love department. Mr. Wonderful fell off the face of the earth with no warning. He did decide to return, intermittently. But now I have a huge wall that he is going to have to get over. And men wonder what is wrong with us, perhaps there is nothing wrong with us... perhaps there is something wrong with men.

What IS wrong with me, is that I throw myself into something and when it goes awry, my entire being also goes awry. Why can't people be who they say they are? Why do they say things that they do not mean? Or why do they mean them in one minute and maybe not the next even when absolutely nothing has changed.

Do not offer me the fairy tale and then run away.


On a side note, I did have a fabulous New Year's Eve party and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. I served beef tenderloin wrapped in bacon, ginger turkey meatballs served with a warm sweet mustard sauce, parmesan pastry puffs, stuffed mushrooms, southwestern squares, artichoke crab dip, triple chocolate fruit topped pizza, peanut butter squares, and the specialty drink of the evening was Pomegranate Mojitos. Everything turned out perfect! I do still remember how to throw a party after all. :) Maybe I should look into even planning.....
