1. I know, I know. Dear blog, I’m sorry I’m so quiet. Feeling neglected, I know you are. I’m sorry. I promise to try and make time for you. Right now, I’m living and enforcing the “less time on the Internet, more time with the people in front of me rule”.
2. Holidays were, quite simply, awesome. Laziness, Cape Town, Cammertime, Love, Good Friends, Family, Happy Smiles. What more can I say? I’m spoilt.
3. That love thing? That love thing rocks.
4. That mama thing? That mama thing rocks.
5. That life thing? That life thing rocks.
6. We move soon. New home, again. It’s funny. Have so many good memories of independence set in my heart on our home and now, we’re walking away from it. I’m torn. And, if you know anything about me, you know that my heart is home, and home is my heart. It’s weird to walk away. But, it’s good. It’s another turn in a life story. And I’m excited. Cam even more so.
7. Things have changed. Good change. Adjustment and changes. Some are interestingly fandangled. There is much “waiting for things to happen” right now. It’s a good thing I forced myself to learn patience.
8. What’s the thing I want to learn this year? I want to learn to be kind. Be kind to me, first and foremost. It helps that I feel I have set some good boundaries in life over the past year. Being kind to me first, and everyone else after, isn’t a sign of selfishness (that was a HARD lesson to unlearn). It means I am more able to be kind to everyone else. Somehow, I feel like I have time. Being kind to myself, my little indulgence? It’s sleep. Wonderful, glorious sleep. I love sleep. I lacked it so so much. 2011 is to be the year where I learn how to sleep, for real.
