embracing

Wow... it's been way too long since I've been here. All the usual reasons and issues apply - stress, work, health, family, blah, blah, blah. Really it's just life happening.

Since change is unavoidable, and life keeps happening, I'm deliberately choosing to embrace changes and life this year.

Some of the changes to be embraced:

-turning 50 in the most healthy way possible (actually really think this one is cool!)

-planning my week ahead each Sunday - in writing. (food, time, chores, time to quilt, etc)

-regular exercise (oh...mercy!)

-reduction in work hours and income (economic downturn strikes again, eh?)

-returning to a joyous outlook

-managing stress in positive ways

It will be interesting to see how these changes actually look in comparison to previous processes. Lots of room for learning since I didn't get zapped by perfection last night. Darn!

...may there be mercy in the lessons of embracing and change.
