I've been thinking a lot about the upcoming year, and quite a bit about the one we just finished.   It's a natural thing to do, if not always helpful.     Here's what I want in 2010.   I want nothing to happen.   No job changes, no moving, no life changes.   No family deaths, no horrible accidents.   Here's what the last 5 years have looked like. 2005 - bought a house 2006 - got engaged, sold a house, moved 2007 - got married, got pregnant 2008 - had a baby, changed jobs 2009- sold a house, bought a house A year from now, I want to be posting to my blog that nothing happened this year.   I want to spend 2010 going to work, loving my family, and taking big deep breaths.   No stressful life changes!    Bring it on, 2010.  We are ready.
