Kimberly

It's the end of 2011, and I'm going to share with all of you an exercise I've been doing for years. At the end of each year, I look back on the last twelve months. What went right, what went wrong, what unexpected things arose? What goals did I reach, what do I still need to work on? And, what are my 2012 goals? This is a sampling of my assessment: Good: found employment as a psychic, found a new friend in my kitten, secured a position as sempai in my martial arts course. Bad: my family is still convinced I'm a satan-possessed schizophrenic. My car is finally dead...and now needs to be replaced. Great: I took huge leaps forward in my health and happiness. I learned to laugh at myself. I'm happier now than I've ever been. Unexpected: I ended up on a social networking site, and found a level of love and acceptance I didn't think the internet was capable of, and made amazing friends! (Sincerest thanks, to you all!) Needs work next year: More focused energies toward my performing arts dreams. And, I still need to focus on making close friends face to face. Realistic goals: test for nidan in martial arts. Get my psychic business booming. Make one appearance on television. Crazy goals: pull off a spot on BB on my first application. Get my parents to read one single book on psychic arts and spirit communication...at least get them to stop pleading with the local bishop for an exorcism! What I'm most grateful for: my drastically improved happiness, and my amazing new friends. For all of you, I wish a happy 2012, and all your dreams fulfilled.

Your votes are in for this fine Thursday Kimberly.

I voted for you. have a great day and a wonderful weekend!!

Votes are in.. looking beautiful.. Thanks for the friend request...

A Thursday suggestion for a New Years Party: If you want an interesting party sometime, combine cocktails and a fresh box of crayons for everyone! Your vote is in!

I've been pretty busy the last couple weeks, so I have not been able to vote everyday! But Gotcha today!

Voted glad we friends

I was going to enter my family in the post-apocalyptic reality show casting now. My first thought was that we'd do well. My mother is a survival expert, my 22 year old sister is a certified EMT, who interns at a local ER, and is in medical school, and I have two black belts, in Kendo and Ryuku Kempo. That's a solid team, right? Post prep-week to have Christmas at my family's house, I changed my mind, for two reasons. One was the hysterics everyone broke into when the aforementioned medic had a diabetic seizure. This has happened several times, requiring only a shot of glucogon. I did that. After hearing my mother and youngest sister shrieking hysterically, ripping the room apart as they looked for the glucagon, in its bright red case, that was right where it should have been, with the rest of the diabetes supplies. What happens when the medic needs medical attention? Panic, apparently, if I'm not there. Reason number two is a story to come. Have a great day! Votes are in!

I just voted for you and hope you get the part so good luck!!

As the final days of 2011 tick by, I attached something I have learned in all my years: If you wish to succeed in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother, and hope your guardian genius. It worked for me! Your vote is in.

Run by voting tonight :)

Thanks Kimberly, welcome aboard. Votes are in for this fine Tuesday.

Tuesday's votes are in. Have a great night!!!!

I just voted for you and hope the holidays are going well for you this year too!!

Home! Haha, there's nothing like peace and quiet after a long family reunion. Here's how to know your holiday season has gone PERFECTLY: 1.) Six days before christmas, you realize you're not done shopping. 2.) The next couple of days involve an emergency vet visit, SIDS scare from the cousin, and a diabetic seizure from the sister. 3.) You spend 5+ hours in a military hospital ER, waiting for a tube of burn cream, because your grandmother has still not understood that you genuinely are too stupid to boil water. 4.) Your mother, with her defective cleaning OCD, has you spend all day polishing the same two leather couches, only realizing when you have to go home that nothing got done...cue shrieking. 5.) You're sent to your house to clean the family heirloom serving set...150+ pieces, formerly thought lost, discovered in a dingy closet. The mission: hand wash half an inch of grime off the set, then hit with silver cleaner for tarnish, then scrub and polish again. This is a great theory...if your kitchen sink emitted more than a pathetic dribble of water. And, 6.) While you're determinedly, simultaneously swiffering the kitchen floor, and tending the spiced yams, and babysitting a handful of the THIRTEEN new babies my family has added since the start of the year...you hear your mother...shouting at your sister about not hanging the expensive leather coats on wire hangers. ( "No wire hangers, EVER!!" < anyone familiar with that quote? ) Yep...another successful Christmas with my gigantic German/Polish family...certifiable insanity and all. Here's hoping your holiday was just a tiny shade SANER. Now...cleaning for the New Years party at my grandmother's house. Nice to meet you, Kimberly! Voted!

Remember on this final Tuesday of 2011: Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again. Vote is in!

Have a great Tuesday!
