The holidays are over, and the decorations will be back in the boxes later this week. It went by a lot faster than I thought it would, with family coming here to the house for the first time in quite a while. It was a stress free weekend and then the week after of just bumming around the house doing nothing much, was a nice break from the hectic pace of normalcy.
I’m not one to play out the whole resolutions for the new year, and the fact that I spent the weekend downing a batch of mimosas means that I completely didn’t bother to determine all the things that I should start up or drop doing for the new year. The husband and I both have said we’re making changes with the way we do things, but it has more to do with health issues and coincidental timing than actual “resolution” setting.
One thing I have said is that I’m going to try and get back into the habit of writing again. I am very good at finding distractions all around me and being too busy doing nothing to bother sitting down and putting thoughts here or on paper. I’m not going to do the blog 365 or anything like that, because the pressure to do this every day makes me post random stuff just to post and I end up with a bunch of pictures of things that are known to distract me from writing, and so I’m trying to avoid that.
We’ll see how it goes, with the simple idea that I should write something when there is something worth mentioning or humorous going on here in the house, which is in fact, most days of the week. It’s not like I’m short of material with a teenager tripping over his own feet running around.
Happy new year to those of you that wander here on occasion, let’s hope it’s a better one than the last.
