So Hello 2012.

How are you?

Young and fresh I see.  full of promise and hope.  I did say that I would work on a list of wishes for 2012.  Somehow if you write it down it seems more real.  And then if you publish it in a public forum, well then you really are putting yourself out there. 

Well, some things I'd to see done this year are:

Read more

Make my sewing room delightful

Enrol in a photography course
Make some dress ups for the kids

Enjoy the wonderment of my son starting school

Marvel in one-on-one time with my daughter
Take the family on more picnics

Bake

Collect old family recipes and make a book

Get fit
Organise the filing cabinet
Have a girls weekend

Be challenged

Sew

Open my online store again
Do a budget (hah - unlikely as I've never suceeded at this one!)

Go on dates with hubby

Learn something new (belly dancing would be fun)

Plan a holiday (I'm thinking just a lovely few days in Sydney would be nice)

Write letters

Have you got a 2012 list?
What's on yours?

my word for 2012

Hello...welcome to 2012.

I wasn't going to return to blogging tonight, but I couldn't resist Maxabella's One Word for 2012!  I can't wait to see what One Word you all choose.

For me, I've got a lot of hope weighing on 2012 being a good year.  My son starts school for starters.  I think every mother with a school aged child can verify how nerve racking that alone can be - for both parent and child.  I remember vividly turning up to mothers group with my 10 week old babe rapped and the smell of his sweet baby breath.  We sat and stared at each other.  That was 2006.  We laughed that in 2012 they would be starting school.  We laughed as we just could not imagine that day.

Well it's coming fast.

So what's my word for 2012.

Moment

Be in the moment

live in the moment

Be grateful for each moment

appreciate challenging moments

savour triumphant moments

moments to learn from

moments to laugh

moments to just be

my word for 2012

what's yours?
