RINGING it IN!

New Year's Eve......what a magical day......holding the end of this year in its gras,p and leaving us all on a threshold to begin again from......and I have spoken many times of my love of clean slates.....of bouncing off places.....new school years.....new places to start over in.....so this year I am RINGING in the possibility of a NEW year......I have spent many a new year out and about in my younger years, and since becoming a mama, many New Year's Eves in my jammies in my living room;-) and both were just fine.....but tonight.....my kids are with their dad, and I am going to go out and do it up:) seize the excitement and revelry and use it to propel me into a NEW year.....I am going to a gala tonight, and getting all dolled up, and I am HERE FOR IT this year:) and the anticipation of this year is kinda been a little different for me than the past few years.....I can feel some sizzly magic up ahead in this one.....I am feeling some promise and excitement in this year, and maybe a little extra kind of magic up ahead:) and I am looking forward to 2023, I truly am.....and I know when we hear the term 'New Year's resolution" many times we see a collective eye roll lol:) I get it......but stay with me a minute......I am not endorsing the resolution so much as the notion it comes representing.......and that is that you hold the key to your life in your heart, but more importantly in your mind and your actions......you have the power to live any life you wish.....I truly believe that now.....and if your life is not working for you, you get to change that.......I always see that saying that says "Don't live the same year 75 times and call it a life". Yeah DON'T DO THAT! ;-) Decide that this year is going to be ridiculously amazing.....make some goals for yourself......and then get to work......work toward them every single day and watch your life transform........it is so easy to let our lives go by on autopilot right? Think of how fast this past year has passed........this is it folks.....our lives.....and it is up to us to seize it and make it the way we want it to be.....and I plan on doing that.....I will be working on the goals I wish to achieve in this next year.....writing them down....and beginning to craft a plan to get there.....and I have this feeling that this time next year my life will look much different than it does now.....in all amazing and wonderful ways:)......so for today I am going to revel in the promise......in the hope.....in the life that a NEW YEAR holds, and look forward to ringing it in tonight!! I hope you won't let the negativity of resolutions keep you from making some big plans for yourself for 2023! GO AFTER the life you want and it will meet you there:) Have a great night y'all:):)
