Days before the Year
Howdy Gentle Reader,
Would you like a hot apple cider and a warm gingerbread biscotti? Snowy day here in MonkeyWorld. Very chilly too which explains why my layers have layers! The kitchen is always cozy though and there's always room for everyone.
There's something nice and lovely about those few days before the start of a new year. That "the skies the limit!" feeling when you decide what adventures you want to embark on in 2012. Oh and there's gonna be a lot this coming year. A lot, a lot!!!
My life has completely changed from 12 months ago. COMPLETELY. I still have my beloved Siamese feline duo, and endless passion for my art. My family and friends are amazing and their incredible support this past year was wonderful and appreciated. However, the biggest change came in the form of
L-O-V-E and something I have never ever experienced before - pure joy from falling in love with someone who makes you grin and laugh uncontrollably every single day. Tears running down your face laughing. We finish each other's sentence and can usually communicate with just a few words or a special glance. Someone who is beyond your bestfriend and partner. Yup. In that happy place and I am so grateful. Mucho gracias Universe!!
This year I am kicking it up a notch (you KNOW how much I enjoy doing that right?) and planning a Vision Board for 2012. I usually take my glitter pen (green of course) and write my goals in my new journal (rainbow coloured book this time - didn't want to pick just one!). This time I need more space to do...well...more!
We've chatted about Vision Boards before but here's a little reminder. You cut out pictures of things that make you smile and that you want to accomplish or acquire in the new year and then paste them on a board - 18"x24" is a good size - construction paper from the dollar store works well or even a canvas for painting. If you want to be healthier, you can tape up pictures of healthy people, nutritious foods, or perhaps write in the actual weight you want to be. If you want a new kitty in 2012, paste a photo of one on the board (or draw it - you talented Gentle Reader you!!) Continue adding things that make you excited and giddy. Writing the word BELIEVE could mean to never give up on hope and belief. A running shoe could represent that half-marathon you want to do in the summer or that you just love those particular Nikes and want to wear them! The more specific you are about your goals and dreams, the better it is! You'll see.
Tomorrow we'll discuss next steps.
Until then GR, have a fabulous evening and keep smiling!

I've thought about making a vision board. I've thought about doing a LOT of things. I need to make a vision board about making a vision board. Mmm, let me put "make vision board" on my to do list for tomorrow.
Thanks, Monkey!
