Heading into December

It's so incredible to think we're already heading into December. This whole year has flown by, so many changes! We've moved from a village in the mountains back to the Valley of the Sun, our family has jobs again, we've been living in a nice home in a beautiful neighborhood for 7 months already, the list goes on and on. What will December hold? How will we finish up the year? Our Christmas tree is up and I've barely begun shopping for gifts. We're contemplating moving before our April lease is up, if the opportunity is right - but I just don't know what we should do for sure yet. The best part of all this is that I am very optimistic about not only December, but also what the New Year will hold. I love January 1st. It's a great time to clear the slate and start fresh, with new goals, and to create better habits, and to let go of past mistakes. It's such a wonderful time of "newness". For now, I'll look forward to spending more time outside while our weather is at its best. I've got plans for baking (for Christmas gifts). And in just about a week, my Honey will be home for a few days again! He's been gone for weeks! I'm really anticipating a great month ahead of calmness, getting together with friends, closing out another year, and looking forward to 2013.
