2007 was a great year for me. I got a new job, I lost weight, I blogged almost everyday, bloghopped at the same pace and I even had time to spend in the garden.

I knew 2008 will be different. It was our ramp up period for Production. I’d admit I thought that by the end of year my life would be revert to its normal pace. It’s not as crazily busy, but busy enough to sap my energy and use up my time.

I cut back on a lot of things, particularly the time I spent online. When I’m not working, I’d rather:

1. Spend time with my family.
2. Cook, which was mostly during weekends. If I was single, I’d be okay with instant noodles.
3. Sleep.
4. Clean the house, which I did very rarely last year.
5. Sleep.

What’s my plan for 2009 then? It’s hard to tell.

Our Live date has been moved, so we’re still in a ‘heightened’ state of flux. As in, there are still changes happening, we still have areas to test and I still have a lot to do (and worry about).

But I hope the situation’s different by mid-year.

Of course, I am mindful of the fact that I am lucky to have a job and that I do not need to worry for the entire year. Bossing said our jobs are secured for at least a year more.

Since last week, I’ve started doing the laundry more often. I’ve also prepared meals for the next day and I even managed to bake some muffins last weekend!

Maybe I can keep it up, even with some late hours and weekend work. That sounds like New Year’s Resolution Numero Uno.

Numero Dos? I pray God help me become a better person. I want to be a good person at home and at work.Mold the hardheaded, hot-tempered, stupid me into someone I wouldn’t be ashamed of.

Okay perhaps I should reverse those numbers. What the heck, on to my next post before I succumb to sleep.
