New Beginnings

Ah, January, a time for fresh starts in a new year. The newest being this blog, which can only be surmized as my new year's resolution. I resolve to blog at least once a month here, I say only once a month because I always find ways around my new year's resolutions. It has always been a vice of mine, betraying myself, giving in to excuses not to continue resolutions. The longest I have kept a resolution was about 3 months. Easy since it concerned ice cream and it was too cold in January and February for the frozen dessert.
My list of fresh starts goes on with my personal life. I proposed to my girlfriend, Ariel, on New Year's Day. It wasn't planned out all romantic like or anything, I didn't do it when the ball dropped and we weren't anywhere special. I had thought about doing something special and had tried before, but something had always come up and ruined my plans. So, when I did propose, I did it while we were getting ready to go out. Luckily for me, Ariel said 'yes'. Our Wedding will be in Nov. 2012
The list goes on to my new job. I moved to evansville to stay close to family while I worked on a contract as a Utility Forester, but the contract I was on fell through. Instead of moving back on the road, I chose to stay in town and find what I could. I got a job in security for a while, but decided that job wasn't meant for me. Luck found me a position in a local health department as an environmentalist. So far the job suits me well and it keeps me in the area, which makes my fiance happy.
