Dear 2018… (and goodbye 2017)

Dear 2018,

Welcome! I hope you’ve packed your largest suitcase with good vibes and clear sailing for the months ahead. Here’s something you should know about me. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the idea of you, the beginning of a new year. There’s something to be said for a clean slate. The very idea of a clean slate. No, there’s nothing profound or magical about flipping the calendar from December to January, but the beginning of a new year feels entirely different to me.

Oh, the anticipation.

The suspense. What will you bring, 2018?

Dear 2018, we’ve not yet met and already I find you to be hope-filled, fresh and bright bringing me the priceless gift of days and weeks and months to get things accomplished.

You are my favorite journal filled with blank pages waiting to be filled with words yet to be written. Books yet to be read. Ideas yet to be thought.Continue Reading

Happy Birthday, NYE, Everything!

Happy Birthday to my husband, John! He’s a New Year’s Eve baby. As a kid he thought the whole world was celebrating his birthday. I think the world should. ???

Happy New Year’s Eve to all my readers. I appreciate you. ???

Happy everything to everyone! ???

I’ll see you next year,
