The end of a year and the beginning of another one. I know that really, if you want to make changes, you can just get on with it. There is no need to wait for an arbitrary date... and yet a new year holds a certain kind of power, lends itself well to discarding the mistakes of the past and beginning afresh.
We have various plans for this year. Plans to actually finish decorating the rooms that we started decorating in 2012. Plans to move away from some of the unhealthy things in our lives and introduce more healthy alternatives. Plans to nurture our friendships instead of neglecting them. Plans to grow as individuals and as a family into better people.
We've started well. The second half of our new bathroom is arriving in a couple of weeks, along with some new furniture for the sprogits bedrooms which will solve a few storage glitches. We invited friends around for a bring and share child-friendly evening on New Years Eve and much fun was had. I've organised to see various folk for lunch after gymnastics each week. We are spending a week in London, when we will be seeing my sister, 2 sets of friends and visiting the NHM, Science Museum and Tower of London. We have bought some seeds and are building troughs in which to grow vegetables. But these things require long term commitment rather than short term. Hopefully we can give what we need to.
Here's to new beginnings :) merry new year everyone!
