Joy for 2012!
Hello Gentle (and patient) Reader,
Whoa! When the monkey goes off the grid, she does so big time!
Just relaxing in the Diner now. Peppermint mocha anyone? *smiles* Thought so. The shortbreads will be ready in a minute. Please put up your feet. We're on quiet time here and everyone is welcomed.
Well this year has been quite the adventure! Incredible highs and lows. For every challenge there has been a equally wonderful outcome elsewhere to balance. Found beautiful true love in my personal world. Late bloomer but a happy one! Finally found someone who not only appreciates and loves me for me but encourages me to be my BEST me. Priceless! There's a first for everything in life. Now I want to live to be 100!!
SO as you can imagine, my goals for 2012 are pretty mega ones. Like a King-Kong-sized Tah-Dah list! (yay monkeys!).
The new year will be less equals more when it comes to things in my life. After a half century of living (yeah I admit it), you acquire all sorts of items. Twice in my life I have given all of my worldly possessions away to others but as time goes on, things have taken their place. I want to treasure 2012 and everything in it. Some other BIG adventures are on the list - more about those later! Why YES they DO involve cake...
So as we head into the last 10 days of the year, I want you to grab that glitter pen and well-loved journal (or snazzy notepad), and write down your top 3 "gotta be, gotta do, gotta love" items. For me it is learning a new language (I've started but want to be fluent), enroll in some more art courses, and start up an artsy brunch club (yup, you read that right - so pals can get caught up while enjoying French toast and lattes - calling it Project ABC). Most of my friends are comics, musicians, actors, and artists so they tend to work the same days/schedules. Thank goodness for FB to keep us connected. However, I know we all miss face-to-face time too. The new year will be about re-establishing connections.
Tomorrow we'll review your list. For today, take a deep breath and smile in knowing that 2012 will be YOUR most amazing year yet!

A brunch club is a brilliant idea! It's good to see you back to blogging. I'm so happy you're happy! Everybody loves a happy monkey.

HA Franshine, thanks! Yeah well not everyone likes a happy monkey but I'm glad that those in the inner circle (like you!) do.
