Twitter helps me keep track of what to blog but at the same time it causes me to be lazy. So much for wanting to blog about what happened in September, October, November and December 2011 before the year ended…
Anyway, for family and friends who have not given up on coming here, I apologise for the lack of updates apart from the weekly twitter digest (which was set up to be published automatically, I didn’t even need to log into my WP!). I use Facebook and Twitter to keep in touch but sometimes I have more than 2 sentences to say about something, so I like the option/freedom to continue here. Then I’d procrastinate and forget what it was that I had more than 2 sentences to say about.
This year is going to be interesting.
I can’t share the exact details yet but this much I can say…I’m stressing about where to find the time to do it all!

I’m thankful for each and every day I wake into (despite the slow start up on some mornings, even to the point of refusing to leave the bed).
I’m thankful for my family who has shaped me into the person I am today and at the same time, by God’s grace, what I am NOT (if that makes sense).
I’m thankful for friends and grateful that our paths have crossed at some point or another. Thankful that I have a few that I could still count on despite the distance between us, nostalgic (sometimes) for those that I have grown distant from.
I’m thankful for my parents’ sacrifice, without which the means I have to support myself today would not exist.
I’m thankful for every irritant; there lies a blessing (or at least, I try to believe that!) in disguise.
I’m thankful for the kindness of strangers – a word, a touch, a smile (sounds familiar, Agapeans?)
I’m thankful for the love of God, without which all the above would not be possible.
Hello, good morning, how you do?
What makes your rising sun so new?
I could use a fresh beginning too
All of my regrets are nothing new
So this is the way that I say I need You
This is the way that I’m
Learning to breathe
I’m learning to crawl
I’m finding that You and You alone can break my fall
I’m living again, awake and alive
I’m dying to breathe in these abundant skies
Hello, good morning, how you been?
Yesterday left my head kicked in
I never, never thought that
I would fall like that
Never knew that I could hurt this bad
So this is the way I say I need You
This is the way that I say I love You
This is the way that I say I’m Yours
This is the way, this is the way
Hello good morning how you do?
-Switchfoot-
