it is. thank god. i am excited about this year. with so much hard stuff behind us now, we're moving forward and i am very hopeful. i'm encouraged even though nothing has really changed except that little number to 2011. we are heading back to scotland soon and i'm feeling a little stronger than i did a month ago. i think we can do this. i'm going to offer myself for childcare, even though we decided i would take a break from other people's kids and enjoy my life without them before we have our own. we need some income!.. and really i enjoy kids a lot. they inspire me and give me life.
i ordered a winter coat tonight. silly as it is, i feel more prepared for the pain of the wet cold scotland winter. this could be our year. we live in scotland! i'm ready to see what's ahead, explore, love life... and hopefully grow our little family, god willing. this year i want to be more intentional with my relationships. that also means being more picky about them... so i'm picking about 5-8 friends to keep up with each month. this is frequent compared to my usual correspondence. i want to pursue and nurture relationships that i appreciate instead of letting them drift like i usually do. we'll see=)
i'm not painting. i tried a couple days ago... got all my stuff together, even new brushes, but alas... my heart wasn't in it. i need to find a way to motivate myself. i have a possible commissioning in my future and i love deadlines, so that could be the ticket. i'll figure something out.
fingers crossed.
hands open.
