Reflections & Resolutions

So another year ends already and a new one begins. Thinking back, 2009 has been a pretty eventful and happy year for me. My decision to leave my job and go travelling in 2007 ended a long & dreary period of procrastination and has been a great catalyst for change. This last year has brought lots of new things too. I've got a new job, got married, started learning to Lindy Hop & jive, made some new friends and got to know some old friends better. All these things have brought me happiness. Here's to more of this in 2010. And now for some resolutions:

1. Learn to be a better Lindy Hopper
I really want to get over my nerves and get really good at this. Must be brave & not get scared of falling over.

2. Be a more adventurous knitter
I do tend to stick to patterns that I already know I can do. Must try to learn some new skills.

3. Stay Positive
The world is a mad, mad place & it's important not to let the proverbials grind you down.

4. Go easy on myself others and
No-one's perfect & it'd be pretty awful if we were anyway.

I reckon this should be enough to be getting on with. A very happy new year to anyone who reads this. Wishing you all good things for the coming year!
