TGI {2010} F

 

“There are are always flowers for those who want to see them”                  Henri Matisse

It would be hard to not see my blooming orchids this week. They were practically SHOUTING at me as I strolled by dragging the garbage/recycling cans. P1040077

I took it out of the tree to get a better photograph.

My goal: I will try not to glaze over little things. I sometimes try to focus on the big picture, and really, I have only so much control on the big stuff…but some of the little things are more workable. NOT that I controlled this orchid and its amazing blooms. 

My other goal: To finish a bottle of vitamins before they expire. It would be nice if vitamin makers could work on the disgusting taste and toning down the fluorescent after effects too. thanks.

I don’t usually set goals or resolutions for myself…but these are attainable.

2010 May be a year of change at our home. I am not a fan of change, but I can (and will) roll with the tide. As long as I have my team players with me that is…heck I could endure anything with them. 

And if the old wives tale is true that you will spend the next year doing what you did on NYE or NYD, well, then I will be a couch potato, playing games with my girls and eating. 

I better buy bigger clothes. 

Happy New year to all my Blogger and Real life friends (and you daily lurkers who never speak up)…I appreciate all of your comments, your emails and your comradery.

XOXOXOX – Suz

  3. Happy 2010! I'm hoping the old wives tale is just that, or I'm spending the year playing really silly games and watching too much college football.

  5. Hi Suz, Happy New Years to you.. Sounds like you all have had a great day.. I too have done alot of sitting, eating and watching football today. I don't make resolutions but if I did, I'd want a year just like last year… 2009 was amazing for us—so we're hoping that 2010 will be as good or better. George and I both take lots of Vitamins–and don't mind the taste or flavor at all. I guess at our ages, we just get used to it. haHappy New Year my Friend.Hugs,Betsy

  9. I somehow think I should be offended that you made a distinction between your \”blog\” and \”real\” friends. I believe you meant to say your friends \”in real life.\” Yeah, that's it. Cuz, you KNOW I think of you as one of my besties, right? 😉 Happy New Year to you and yours!!
