Word of the Year 2010

What a fabulous idea....I've thought of a few words - but this one keeps coming back to me....

THRIVE...
1. to prosper; be fortunate or successful.
2. to grow or develop vigorously; flourish.


I would like to THRIVE at work. I have a huge challenge ahead of me at work - i'm working mainly from home now - which has been a much larger challenge than I thought it would be. I dont really do things i'm not suppose to - but i dont get out as much as I should-want to and find it very difficult not having someone or a variety of ppl to talk to each day. As well in terms of the work itself - I'm taking over for someone that has been there for 40 years - HUGE!!!

I would like to THRIVE in my home life with my husband - we are going through some tough times together - and I want to get through it with him :)

I would like to THRIVE with my parenting skills. Like everyone (at least those that are telling the truth) I need more patience and understanding sometimes with my kids. These teen years are driving me insane by times :) and i'm not handling that very well either......

I would like to THRIVE on my journey to live more healthily. Same old Same old - eat better, exercise more :)

I would like my friendships/relationships to also Thrive this year. I want to spend more time nurturing my friends - wow that sounds 'gay' (as the teen would say - ahah)

I would like my crafting to THRIVE this year - spend more time crafting this year - and maybe make some money off of it (OK this is a big one - but i'll let you know if it happens. HA.
