So, my holiday hiatus is over, and I sit here wondering what to write.
In terms of Christmas and New Years… It’s over. The trip to the inlaws was surprisingly void of any drama. For this I am very thankful.
I don’t have any New Year’s resolutions. I don’t like to make them. But I have some goals. I plan on concentrating more on my gigs, and my business. I”ve been inspired to work on my house. My children are taking splendidly to my being home, and I plan on capitalizing on that.
And that pretty much summarizes the New Year, Christmas, and my plans for the coming months. I would take the time to participate in the reflections I’m seeing… But quite frankly, 2008 was really really hard for me. I simply do not wish to rehash it in my mind.
I’m in such a better place now. Mentally, physically. Perhaps not spiritually, but I’m working on that. I have more clarity. While money is a huge issue right now, coming home has been the best thing I ever could have done for me, personally, and my family.
I do have a bit of news, however. I’m going to Blissdom 2009. Yay! I still have to figure out my travel details, but I’m going.
I’m also still figuring out if I can attend BlogHer in July, but that’s still a bit in the air, and might also depend on our tax refund.
I do want to take a moment and say thank you. Thank you for being out there. Thank you for your support. Sometimes life is hard. Being a woman is hard. Being a mother is hard. Being part of a family is hard. Being half of a marriage is hard. But everyday, I can get on the internet and see other women struggling through the same things and know that at the very least – I’m not alone.
“But everyday, I can get on the internet and see other women struggling through the same things and know that at the very least – I’m not alone.”
And that’s exactly why I haven’t hung up my blogging hat. Here’s to a great 2009.
