That phrase keeps making its way into my head so it may rub off on me as well!<br /><br />Jenny, I think you are already good at embracing each day so I can't wait to see what else is on your short list.<br /><br />Jess, ahh...those were some of the best NY eves ever. Who has those time capsules of our 16 year old hopes and dreams and fave lipstick colours?! Mine hasn't changed actually: Wet & Wild 666 of course. <br /><br />Nadine, I look forward to your weekly blogs. It's always so nice to take a sneak peek into your Hawaiian paradise.<br /><br />Monica & Ian, I completely agree! I'm thankful that there are seasons for everything, and that your 'survival season' is hopefully drawing to a close. I can't wait to see where life takes you both next. Be encouraged that your NZ enthusiasm is felt over here!<br /><br />It's so great to have resolutions about enjoyment rather than dietary restrictions. Otherwise I'd have already failed with the amount of cheese I've consumed in the last two days. But I enjoyed it, so I win. <br /><br />Can't wait to see how everyone gets on this year. :)alishahttp://www.seattleiteimagery.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4257969989280357147.post-20821963770404029032010-01-01T17:39:14.243-08:002010-01-01T17:39:14.243-08:00Alisha, what a blog writing and resolution setting...Alisha, what a blog writing and resolution setting inspiration you are! I think the being in a place of enjoyment and peace is our hope also instead of just surviving. I will continue to ponder on the implications of this one... Ahh we miss you heaps.

And I love your resolutions, especially the part about just enjoying paradise.<br /><br />I've gotta figure out my resolutions tomorrow, but definitely blogging once a week, increasing my daily word count, and keeping healthy. I had more than a few moments in 2009 where I realized you only truly appreciate health once it's gone.<br /><br />Happy New Year Alisha!Nadinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457340386682051325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4257969989280357147.post-22867991913496286062009-12-30T22:13:55.731-08:002009-12-30T22:13:55.731-08:00Lish~ I love who you are!!:) I also love that ever...Lish~ I love who you are!!:) I also love that every new year I can't help but picture you, me, Suz and Jess writing out our goals and hopes for the new year way back when. I'm sure some of them were silly such as 'my favorite lipstick of 1996 is...' and some more serious, but cherished memories for sure.<br /><br />My resolutions/hopes for 2010- I wrote on my blog a short while ago but I think it boils down to being open to anything, dreaming big, and making small steps towards those big dreams wherever I can in my day to day life. It would take too long to write out what that would look like but I am excited to see what comes of it all. <br /><br />Cheers to a new year!

With a baby on the way, all I can anticipate are the countless ways my life will alter, despite my will, and I imagine merely trying to keep my head above water in the fray. <br /><br />But, if I really think about it, I suppose I do have goals, though baby related. I want to eat the most nutrient-dense, fresh foods as possible as I begin breast-feeding and reclaiming my body from pregnancy. I am hoping to juice at least twice a day. I also want to be back at the gym (thank God for childcare there!) within 8 weeks of delivery and set a routine for "me" time there at least a few days a week. And finally I want to find a rhythm for writing as I settle into a new home rhythm with the baby. Maybe a page or two a day during naptimes? We shall see. <br /><br />Thanks for the inspiration, Alisha! Don't you just love morning pages? If you're ready for your next creative fodder book, I would recommend "Art and Fear" or "The Creative Call" in the new year. I think my next book will be Stephen King's "On Writing."Joanna Roddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15872747084305014996noreply@blogger.com
