Highlights from the Holidays//The New Year

It's been inexcusably long since posting last....I've been busy doing things!  Fun things! NYC before Christmas.

And New Orleans for New Years & the Sugar Bowl. If you've never been to New Orleans, GO! It's like Paris & the South all rolled into one. Top 5 places I've ever visited, for sure.

As for the New Year, here are some goals of mine. If I put them in print (or type) perhaps I will be better about making them realities:

1. Face my fears, no more avoiding or allowing them to hold me back.
2. Seek more adventure, daily.
3. Continue to work on achieving a calm, happy, & thankful attitude.
    a. Truly work on meditations during yoga practices.
4. Read more (I know, I already read a fair amount, but when traveling I get into a rhythm of reading before bed, but once I get home I watch tv/movies instead before sleep...I like the wind down that reading provides).
5. Enter an art fair/festival to sell prints & books.
6. Put myself out there a little more, take risks...as Ralph Waldo Emerson says: "Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment."

I think that'll be plenty to keep me busy.
