Happy New Year darlings...

A new year, 2011!!!!

I have no pictures yet to download, but

had an awesome new years evening

with special people who I adore.

Yet this afternoon I lay here in the sanctity of

my bedroom and reflect on the year behind

and the one ahead.

I have always been a journaler

but have been lax about it....

But because I am going to take the year

for the Simple Abundance journey

I will become, once again, a daily journaler.

It is what Simple Abundance speaks of.

So find yourself a beautiful journal, a fancy inkpen

or get yourself a composition and a pencil.

Whatever least intimidates you and write.

Write not what you want to make a resolution,

I have never been good about resolutions.

I do know that tomorrow I will treat my body

to some healthy eating and just as soon as the

doctor okays some exercising I will put these

feet to the blacktop with Ipod in ear.

It is where I get much inspiration for writing

as well as blogging.

For today I take it easy and reflect.

My company has all just left and today I lay

here and spend some quiet time with myself.

Knowing that I am about to have some life-changing

things happen to me.

I am soon to become a grandmother,

I want to be the best grandmother I can be.

I want to once again give my family the 100% of

me that they deserve.

Today I begin by treating myself to quiet time,

here with my books, blog and journal in hand.

JANUARY:

AND NOW LET US WELCOME THE NEW YEAR

FULL OF THINGS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN SEEN.

This is the month to dream, to look forward to the year ahead
