Those wonderful resolutions

Well, its 2008. Funny, it doesn't feel much different. Except that it is much colder today, as befits January. I rang in the new year in my husband, David's arms. {sighs;remembering} Today I must begin those dreaded/anticipated resolutions. I make some every year, most of them don't ever make it past February, but there have been a few.....This year one of mine was to take up yoga again after a long time. I did it! I got up this morning and went through a whole range of poses. Boy, it was not as easy as I remember it being before. Partly due to the fact that my three year old, Sophie, was trying to do her own version of the poses as I was. That was something to see. She's actually quite good and followed the video nearly as well as I did. I hope to fit in the yoga every day. It does make a difference in the way I feel and carry myself, immediately. Its pretty amazing really. I recommend it.

Now I sit here with my toasty fleece throw around my shoulders and a steamy cup of Chai latte, mulling over the other resolutions I made and trying to get psyched to proceed with them. In no particular order......

* begin yoga and walking routine

* get back to clean eating, grains, fruit, veggies and lots of water. (I'd love to kick my diet coke habit, but alas, I am only mortal.)

*continuing Goddess study with my circle sisters and on my own

* become more involved in the pagan community, (even though it means driving to Knoxville regularly, I need it.)

* work on my photo scrapbooks, (I am so behind)

*continue my herbal studies, incorporating the magical as well as the medicinal

*begin study of death midwifery as a life calling

* growing wiser as my fortieth birthday approaches

I am really looking forward to a busy and productive year.
