Happy New Year!
I spent a quiet night alone for New Year's. It wasn't what I had planned, but the weather conspired to change my plans. Instead of dancing the night away with friends, we all stayed off the icy roads. I watched a movie, finished a book, and spent a cozy evening cuddled up with the fur kids.
A mellow start to the year doesn't mean I'm getting soft. There are shenanigans and plans on the horizon! A night of rest was actually a good thing.
I'm looking forward to quality time with Tammy this week. I'll also get to see the "sponge" girls and families. I'm sure my sides will hurt from laughing and my heart will be full of smiles and love.
May your new year be happy and bright!

resolution
As the year winds down, and a new year peeks over the horizon, I can't help but think about what the coming year will bring to me. And what it will require of me.
I don't really make new year's resolutions; or at least I don't call them that. But as I reflect on my hopes and dreams for the next 12 months, I usually find my thoughts centering on a few themes from year to year. That often leads me to a word or phrase that becomes my touchstone for the next year. Something to remind me of the path I chose when I get lost, something to bolster my spirits when I feel low. Over the years my words and phrases have been things like "leap" "heal" and "no room for fear."
As 2013 comes along, I find that this year is no different. When I started thinking about what my word might be, it came to me clear and bright like the stars on a crystal clear night.
Resolve.
My own personal reminder to be determined, be deliberate, be strong and steady. To stick to my guns, stand up for myself. To not allow others to harass or intimidate me.
What are your plans for the new year? Any hopes and dreams on the horizon?
