Changes for the new year….
I’ve navigated this blog to typepad, in the hopes of creating a much better site. Sleeker. More organized. Rich and fruity and full of helpful, useful goodness.
Sounds a lot like qualities we long for as a new year begins, in the dead of winter. We dream of crisper, more efficient lives, increased health, less conflict and muck in the metaphorical corners….
This will be the third year of a new tradition: instead of a bunch of resolutions (which feels oddly like a bigger, heavier to-do list, like a piano hanging from a window), why not pick ONE WORD for the upcoming year?
Choose something you’d like to remind yourself of, something positive. A quality you’d like to internalize. A skill you’d like to incorporate. A reminder that can help you live more moment-to-moment, instead of hanging for dear life on either side of the present (the past or future).
Friends have chosen or pondered the following words: act, joy, completion, acceptance, love, surrender, flower, priorities, family and breathe.
What might your word be? What changes do you hope to make with your extended family?
Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and peaceful new year.
Please bear with me a few days as I attempt to get everything up and purring. I’m no techie, though I can hold my own with kindergarten-level tools, Buster. Stand back.



It looks great!
