It’s early enough in the new year to still be able to enjoy the holiday lights and ornaments. Soon, they will be gone. I take in the loveliness during this evening’s dog walks.
Gym Rats
New Years or not, we hit the gym…because it’s what we do.
farewell my friends
I have really become attached to my Friends over the past couple of years. During 2019, in particular, Rachael, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Phoebe, Joey, and my friends’ friends have helped me to smile (even laugh) when my heart was aching. And it was aching terribly for much of the year.
When I was feeling lonely, they were there within a few clicks — and I knew that indeed I had a friend (or three or 6+). It seems only fitting that I would see the decade pass with them in my presence — if only until the clock strikes midnight. I hope that once they get settled (where ever they land) that they will reach out to reconnect as good friends always do.
Farewell my friends; you will surely be missed.
20/20
The term 20/20 vision is used to express normal visual acuity (the clarity or sharpness of vision) measured at a distance of 20 feet. Someone who has 20/20 vision, can see clearly at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance.
In the year of 2020, I hope to bring my visual acuity to a new normal by repeating my Daily Photo project of 2010. The plan is simply to take a photo every day to use for a little write up. Nothing fancy; any camera will do. I plan to post here but was thinking that the best of the week could be shared on a Best Shot Monday post to my Instagram page.
Back in 2010, I found that the project helped to inspire creativity and an ability to look at things differently. An eye opener of sorts; one that makes something extraordinary out of ordinary.
If you care to join me, please leave a comment on where I can find your pics.
drink it up
This Thanksgiving I poured myself a large glass of gratitude.
My glass is overflowing with gratitude for:
-
-
- my health,
- my beautiful family (immediate and extended),
- for my friends,
- for my yoga practice and the new opportunity to teach others,
- for the warmth of my lovely home,
- the car that takes me places,
- my job,
- for the ability to love myself and others,
- for our sweet dog who is always excited to see me when I come home,
- and so much more
-
I hope that your glass is overflowing with blessings and gratitude in this holiday season.
