One Week Into 2009: How's It Been For You So Far?

It's been a mix of good and not so good. I lost my temp-to-hire job that I thought I'd get on permanently with, but now I don't have to deal with icy streets and roads. I was getting a little overtired, anyway. I'm starting the new year with a healthy savings account, too, because of that job! I guess, come to think of it, that's the only rotten thing that's happened so far and it was a mixed blessing so I'll change my mind and say 2009 has had a terrific beginning!

It has been cold. other than that there has really been much of a change. I have correctly put the date on everything that I needed to so that is a good thing. Otherwise things are going along pretty smoothly with no real surprises. I do hope it warms up though as the heating bills won't be cheap this month.

Thanks for asking. Tiring and it didn't start out that way. I went home for New Years because due to the snow, I couldn't go at Christmas. I had a good time and was raring to go when I got home. I arrived the Monday after New Years. I had some last Christmas deliveries, to people from my home town. Turned out, that's when things suddenly changed. All of a sudden I have a million places to go and things to do, that all had nothing to do with the plans that I had for myself for the New Year but for other people and also last minute family functions. I was traveling again, cooking, cleaning, running errands and helping others with their tasks. I am so tired it is not funny. Not the way I had planned to get off to a New Year in 2009. I didn't have any real pressing plans mind you but I did have a vision I was looking forward to follow, to bring in my New Year on a positive self fulfilling foot, so to speak. Oh well, I guess I can try and make it come together this week. At least before the end of the month. Thank you for your post and hows it going for you? I have had no problem making sure I write 2009 in all correspondence as well as banking stuff, like checks. It's like it's been 2009 for sometime, in that department. How about you? Have a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year and thanks again for this discussion. Cheers!

It is not a bad year as I am looking forward to a lot of new things that have not happened. A new year means new beginning and new routines. I'm sure I can get a hang of it but I don't know about others.

Same as any other week nothing more then another boring day. I just dont care what year it is it always astarts out the same so it doesnt matter. Sorry so blunt but thats the way i feel

I started out absolutely pumped about 2009. Now I'm back into the swing and wondering when things ARE actually going to change...lol.

I'm still trying to get used to writing 2009...lol. Well so far its been good, nothing major or traumatic has happened so far. I hope its been going well for you too...have a good day
