...and all through the house, all the crap's disappearing, even the mouse! (the one that doesn't work... crappy thing, anyways!!)
So... it's December 27. The Christmas rush is over, the panic is stopped and most everyone I know is in that lull between Christmas and the New Year. Some, like S. are changing gears, ready to take on the regular routine again - of course including everything a New Year brings with it. Others, like A. are snapping photos, freezing moments in time for all to see. I, the Turtle, have been cleaning out the shell. The space in here is far more important than the stuff that accumulates! As I get older, I like to think - wiser - I find myself less and less attached to "stuff". Space, neat, tidy and uncluttered is massively valuable and brings a smile to my face. Not to say I'm going to neglect paying the bills so big men come and take my furniture, but I definitely believe now that "less is more"!
As the New Year approaches, I'm looking forward to a much simpler approach to daily living - both personally and professionally.
May your soul be at peace in what ever you decide to pursue.

very nice sentiment... we usually have an after Christmas clearout that sees a bag, or more, of stuff going to the local charity shops...
what I like about these last few days is this feeling of winding down, an end. making a list of yummies to munch on the 31st, getting the last bits of Christmas sorted, and enjoying the holiday without that feeling of, "Oh, what do I still need to go buy????"
then, a quiet New Year's Eve, remembering all that I'm thankful for from 2005...
and the anticipation of what '06 will bring...
Happy New Year to you !
A relative calm has descended on us as well. We spend our New Year's Eve quietly and usually the girls are part of it if they stay awake.
Happy New Year in case we don't touch base between now and then.
you found me... :)))
yeah, too many words just for one blog... my MIL found it, so I decided to put a link up...
but visit anytime, you never know what treasures you might fine...
like assorted bits from the scrap heap! :)))
Ah yes... There is something cathartic about a new year starting, isn't there? May your home and soul be blessed with peace and tranquility.
